The Maison Margiela Residences in Dubai marks the first venture into residential living, extending the design legacy—translating the Maison’s codes of deconstruction, trompe-l’oeil, and transformation into a luxury living environment.

“It has been thrilling to bring together the codes of more than 30 years of history of an iconic Maison, led by the greatest fashion couturiers like Martin Margiela, John Galliano and now Glenn Martens. It has been very inspiring to create this first project, and I hope it marks the beginning of many more to come, aiming to define the unmistakable style of a one-of-a-kind fashion house,” said Renzo Rosso, Chairman of OTB Group.

Developed in partnership with Alta Real Estate Development, this collection of 25 bespoke units will stand in one of Dubai’s most exclusive locations, the Palm Jumeirah, redefining luxury living through an architectural lens. Conceived by Maison Margiela and Italian architect Carlo Colombo, a bespoke furniture collection—including sofas, armchairs, tables, chairs, beds, and lighting—has been developed exclusively for the Residences, creating a seamless visual language between the building’s form and its interiors.

The houses play with materiality and technique is also expressed in the Residences, materialized in Travertine furnishings designed in the memory of classic objects, the use of the Maison’s décortiqué technique, and resin-filled indentations in optical white—details that echo Margiela’s exploration. Amenities are an extension of the Maison’s philosophy, offering residents an environment of elegance, discretion, and intuitive comfort. These offerings include an art gallery, curated library, fitness studios, infinity pool, gym, spa, and Margiela Café.
