One Business Bay
It’s a brand new day in the city of Dubai and you’re on your way to the office. You cruise in the direction of the parking bay, pausing briefly to allow the sensor to recognize your number plate. Soon, you’re striding into one of the high performance elevators, knowing that its smooth ascent to your office floor will be a sensory experience in more ways than one. At your command, the entrance to your office glides open and the temperature, lighting and blinds preempt any move on your part. You ease into your workday - sending emails, checking appointments, scheduling meetings and even calling for a coffee - without lifting a finger. And no, there isn’t a personal assistant in sight. To many, this may seem right out of a sci-fi movie. To you, it’s just another day at One Business Bay.
Development
The architects and consultants behind One Business Bay bring a wealth of global experience and expertise to the project.
Kling Consult GmbH of Germany have put over 40 years of architectural experience into the designing of the tower. Project Managers Hamiltons have been contracted for their local and international experience in Construction and Design Consultancy.
Cost Management and Quality Surveying have been awarded to M.S Currie & Brown International. A renowned international contracting firm is also on board to ensure the timely delivery of the project.
Location
For many decades, the legendary Dubai Creek has been an important aspect of the city’s trading past. Business Bay, Dubai‘s ambitious and prestigious development, embodies the crucial role that the Creek will now play in Dubai’s future.
The sheer size of the site is breathtaking, occupying 64 million square feet of freehold projects. Office and residential towers, landscaped gardens and a network of roads and waterways will be intrinsic to this stunning development.
The project is spearheaded by Dubai Properties, the real estate arm of Dubai Holding whose vision and commitment is to improve every aspect of life in Dubai and the region.
Destined to become the new business hub of the region, Business Bay will provide the ideal environment and infrastructure for businesses from around the world.
Location In the Dubai Business Bay
Access and visibility are important factors in a business location. One Business Bay has the advantage of both.
Standing proud at the entrance of Business Bay, the tower occupies the best location in the development. Its prime position is further enhanced by its immediate proximity to Dubai’s growth corridor – Sheikh Zayed Road, and to the Business Bay Metro.
The tower’s impressive neighbours include Burj Dubai - the world’s tallest building, Dubai International Financial Centre, Emirates Towers and has views of the famous Burj Al Arab.
Design
With One Business Bay, Dubai gains yet another architectural marvel. The tower’s distinctive futuristic form gives it the appearance of a skillfully cut diamond.
Enhancing the elegance of its wall-to-wall glass façade, are three projected storeys that seem suspended in mid air. Dramatically rising up to embrace the sky with outstretched arms, the tower’s design also seems to reflect the exuberance of human emotion. Water features and beautifully landscaped surroundings add to the aesthetics of this unique structure.
Intelligent Technology
The company’s ingenious use of intelligent technology will create living and work spaces in which the electronics are sensitive to people‘s needs, personalized to their requirements, anticipatory of their behaviour and responsive to their presence. Environments that help maximize time, offer greater comforts and safety and reduce energy consumption.
You live the experience as you enter the dramatic lobby with its 50 feet high glass atrium giving uninterrupted views over the splendid water fountains and the district. The 30 storey tower welcomes you.

Ehab S. Shouly, Senior Vice President and Marketing Director of Omniyat Properties, said that the design of Omniyat's first project was a tribute to its holding company Almasa Holdings. "Almasa means diamond in Arabic and we designed the building in a shape of a diamond sticking out of the ground," he explained.
Another design element which reflects Almasa's and Omniyat's creative and out-of-the-box approach to business, is the "nose" of the building which is sticking out of the body mass of the building. The nose consists of three floors which are physically pushed out of the building's mass, creating a gap through the building.
