Hadley Heights 2 at Dubai Sports City is the world’s first Olympic Champion branded advancement by the renowned Leos Developments with studios to 3-bedroom apartments with private pools. Co-branded with Tom Dean MBE, the record-holding triple Olympic Gold Medalist, the development translates the discipline, precision and focus of elite sport into a residential philosophy that prizes performance, wellbeing and elegant restraint. Under the Vita Flow concept, the project places movement and recovery at the centre of daily life, as a combination of ground-breaking innovations in wellness technology and intelligent architecture, with warm and liveable spaces. Rather than present itself as a resort, the phase 2 expounds a lifestyle where training, family time and relaxation are equally prioritized. The development is delivered by LEOS with LUD Studios (appointed for design) who combine international expertise alongside an award winning track record.

Located in Dubai Sports City, the ideal locale with the privileged address to combine sporting splendour and real-world conveniences and capital prospects to develop over the long-term. The International Cricket Stadium is located about minutes away and the ISD multi-sport stadium is within easy reach allowing world-class venues to be in the doorstep. Golfers will enjoy access to ELS Golf Club and Trump International whereas academies such as the LaLiga Football Academy run good junior programming nearby. Major city nodes are also within reach as Mall of the Emirates, Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah as well as Downtown Dubai are nearby. The upcoming metro extensions are improving the connection further and the neighbourhood boasts of supermarkets, healthcare clinics and good schools which facilitate a comfortable family lifestyle next to the picturesque canal.

Designed by LUD Studios, this is an elegant exercise in biomorphic architecture that translates the movement of water into a sculptural tower form. The facade incorporates fluid curves and materials influenced by reactions to light, in a design that allows the building to literally transform as neighbouring light and evening illumination play across the surfaces of the building. With a flow of form, the design presents a balance between sculptural presence and scale to provides framed vistas out to the canal and surrounding greenery. Arrival sequences and the lobby spaces are carefully choreographed to provide a warm and refined welcome and attention to material choice and details are simply awesome.

The lifestyle architecture considers leisure as a carefully overlaid infrastructure which contributes to training, recovery, family life and socialising in equal measure. The Skyline Beach Infinity Pool, which has soft white-sand edges, is above the canal and has a wide view of the skyline, complete with Jacuzzis and kids splash zone to play safely. Aqua Sound Spa which is a hydro-acoustic healing zone that is used to balance stress and increase brain-body harmony and Moon Walk Spa which is used to treat particular problems are wellness facilities. There are performance amenities, such as a smart performance gym with biometric data, AI-connected fitness pods, and a Vital Run Track that can be used to run training at pace.

The Future Field youth football corner is the final point that serves the needs of youth and court sports well, with the presence of street basketball courts and a special padel arena, which provide opportunities to play the game informally and professionally. Programming purposefully balances individual healing with community sport in order that the residents are able to opt restorative spa days, concentrated training classes, family swims or socially minded court games based on their rhythm.
