Eltiera Heights at Jumeirah Islands is the next level waterfront-style architectural epitome by the renowned Ellington Properties, lined with 1 to 3-bedroom apartments and 4-bedroom penthouses. Stepping towards feels less like arriving at a property and more like entering a composed moment; where the architecture, landscape and light combine to reframe ordinaries into thoughtful experiences. The excellent architecture is the main source for these descriptions and encapsulates Ellington's desire to produce a residence; where the definition of measured restraint, tactile materials and the choreography of daylight and shadow were to dominate. The arrival forecourt has been contemplated in terms of being an intermediate landscape, an orchestrated threshold leading to and gesturing towards city and sanctuary.

Organic gestures soften the clean geometric elements, whilst facades are composed so as to form a quiet experience in which glazing, screens and metallic surfaces make significant design contributions to the final effect. These choices of design and form are intended to make the everyday life of the family feel better-thought out and to reward attention to material and light. Textured paving, layered planting and soft lighting have been used to designed a sequence of moments to ease the transition from public to private with the drop off sheltered, and design aspects. These arrival moves establish a tone of repose and refinement which is repeated throughout the edifice and over the private homes within it.

Situated amid the serene waterways and landscaping greenery of Jumeirah Islands, itself a neighbourhood known for its sculpted canals. Experience every day in-private walkways and unobtrusive prestige lives. The location provides a healing daily environment but still retains functional links to Dubai's major roads, retail malls and holiday centres. Residents will love the balance of retreat and reach offered: the enclave offers waterside walks and planted vistas in addition to the convenience of easy access to the city's cultural and commercial destinations. This combination of sanctuary and accessibility make well suitable to those who would like the comforts of their daily rhythms, both within and without, but also to move in and out of the broader city more readily.

The architecture is thought of as a sculptural elevation, where rhythm, proportion and materiality are in a continuous dialogue with light and nature. Generous glazing is counterbalanced by carefully positioned screens and metallic accents to ensure that the façade turns in different shades and textures depending on the movement of the sun, creating planes of reflection and shade, which animate the elevation. This layering of solid and transparent elements facilitates passive cooling strategies and frames curated sightlines across canals and planed courtyards. Rooftop terraces and communal outdoor rooms continue the building’s language outwards and provide residents with a higher vistas change and a variety of ways to socialize or reflect quietly without activity.

The leisure is also structured over a 40-meter natural infinity pool, which serves as the reflective center of the landscape. The vanishing edge of the pool takes the shape of transitional sky and skyline images and provides a ritualistic environment of morning laps, lazy doze afternoons and reflection. External terraces, over shadowy walks and small garden rooms create a network of sequential outdoor experience, so residents can work freely through loneliness and interaction. It integrates the landscape design movement of water, movement with planting and paves in a manner that recreation becomes a sequence of experiences to be picked and not a showdown. A well-organized clubhouse is included to support the outer program with lounges and versatile areas that can be used on the occasion of a private or community event. A fitness studio is filled with natural light and provides facilities of both mindfulness and has differentiated areas with classes, strength and recovery.
