Karl Lagerfeld and Taraf unveil luxurious villas in Dubai | Maqvi News

Karl Lagerfeld and property developer Taraf unveiled on Wednesday an exclusive residential enclave comprising of villas, in Dubai. 

The project was designed to mirror Karl Lagerfeld’s maison facade at 21 Rue St Guillaume, in Paris. It comprises 51 residences, each featuring 5 to 7 bedrooms, with property sizes ranging from 721 square meters to 1790 square meters. Residents have the opportunity to personalize their properties by selecting from two distinct facade design options, both featuring grand entrances reminiscent of the Maison’s 18th-century charm.

Strategically positioned in Meydan, the property offers easy access to the airport and the city center while remaining exclusively secluded.

“Karl was deeply fascinated and inspired by architecture,” said Pier Paolo Righi, CEO of Karl Lagerfeld. “Now his passion for innovative design lives on through this incredible property in Dubai, where history and modernity converge. Celebrating this duality, homeowners and investors have an exclusive opportunity to access Karl’s unique vision of luxury living, with a new way to explore and experience his world.”

A runway connects the villas to the community clubhouse, which offers Parisian-inspired interiors featuring parquet and marble. Residents can relax in spacious entertainment spaces furnished with exclusive pieces from Karl Lagerfeld Maison, or enjoy reading in the library inspired by Lagerfeld’s passion for books. The wellness deck provides panoramic skyline views, while a private aqua-blue crystal lagoon invites residents to unwind amidst lush green surroundings.

Low Ping, Group CEO of Yas Holding, Taraf’s parent company, added: “This is an unprecedented venture that marries Taraf’s commitment to luxury and innovation with the unparalleled design prowess of Karl Lagerfeld. We’re thrilled with this collaboration, which goes beyond creating exclusive villas. It is crafting experiences and spaces that epitomise elegance and sophistication. Our mission at Taraf is to push the boundaries of what’s possible, and with these Karl Lagerfeld-designed villas, we are proud to bring this extraordinary vision to life, offering our clients not just a residence, but a masterpiece of design and luxury.” 

The development marks Karl Lagerfeld’s fourth branded residential property project globally and the first in the Middle East. It joins Karl Lagerfeld Villas in Marbella, luxury projects in central Lisbon and Melaka, Malaysia, as well as The Karl Lagerfeld hotel in Macau.

The project contributes significantly to Dubai’s visionary goals for 2030 and beyond, including the UAE Centennial 2071 and Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030.
