Dubai-based developer, Azizi Developments, has awarded a contract worth AED175mn to begin developing its ultra-modern headquarters in Meydan Avenue in Dubai, beginning on April 1.
Green Modelling Contracting has been appointed to construct the new headquarters in Meydan Avenue. The development of the flagship building has been undertaken to enhance customer service and increase operational capacity as the developer grows its portfolio of projects in Meydan, Al Furjan, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Healthcare City, Jebel Ali, and other strategic locations across the city.
Located in Meydan Avenue, the spacious and plush 48,309sqm Azizi HQ building will be able to accommodate more than 2,000 employees and will be outfitted with a rooftop health club and a multipurpose ballroom.
The overall building design incorporates boutique and classical elements, while the interiors will offer a diverse work environment subdivided by zones within the building. The exterior will appear as a wave-shaped crystallised fabric wrapped across the building, giving the impression of a flag being delicately blown in the wind. It also gives the effect of a chandelier – fashionable but also evoking a sense of humanity through the purposeful use of natural materials in the architectural design.
Mirwais Azizi, chairman of Azizi Developments, said: The new Azizi headquarters located in Meydan Avenue is a further show of our commitment to Meydan and our organizational ability to continue our sustained growth in Dubai. As our project portfolio continues to expand, it is imperative that we upscale, invest in creating high-end workspaces for our employees, and contribute to the enduring legacy of the UAE as a regional real estate powerhouse with our flagship headquarters and state-of-the-art facilities.
One of the defining features of the building will be a visitor centre located on the ground floor with exhibits of all Azizi projects including virtual reality rooms, where visitors can experience available properties through the latest advances in VR.
To ensure employees enjoy good work-life balance and a positive organisational culture, the rooftop will be outfitted with a comprehensive health club, complete with a relaxation zone, and gymnasium. An entertainment zone will also be implemented with a full range of activities and gaming. There will also be a full-service nursery for children, as well as sleeping pods for employees.
The multipurpose ballroom will be able to accommodate 1,500 people and will provide an engaging environment for staff, dining, and exclusive sales events hosted by Azizi Developments.
