When Dubai is forest; Green and sustainable settlement in the heart of the desert

Dubai is a city known as ambitious architecture and urban rapid development; Aldar has now offered a new and balanced view of living on the outskirts of the city. The Wilds project is the company’s latest comprehensive plan in Dubai, which boldly puts nature the main focus of a residential neighborhood. The complex is designed with about 2.5 residential units to be like a forest village; Where homes and nature are intertwined. Below we will introduce the details of the Wilds project. (Yanko Design)

At the center of the Wilde Nature -oriented Project, a structure called The Nest; An eye -catching structure that is covered with wood and is in the heart of the forest. This structure is beyond the aesthetic aspects of the community, the focal and ecological point of society and has spaces for gatherings, rest and entertainment; Including a special part of playing and exploring children that introduces them to local ecosystems, birds and insects.

Around the structure of the “Nast” structure, a collection of villas, apartments, and five and six bedrooms are in harmony with the topography of the area. The design of these houses was by Nabil Gholam Architects. Every residential home is surrounded by green corridors and fences of dense plants that create an organized but organized boundary between private and public spaces. This green space is not merely decorative; Rather, it is designed to support native species and to create habitat for local animals.

Wilds has created infrastructure to protect and restore the native biodiversity of the UAE; Honey beehives, bird nests, duck houses and insect colony are all scattered and visible in the context of the community to be part of everyday life.

The design of the Wilds project was formed with respect to the region’s water and climate resources. A network of lush ponds, waterways and meadows play both the role of sustainable drainage and recreation and entertainment. These water elements also help absorb and conduct rainwater and cool the micro -cooling.

The Wilds Collection is the first residential community in the UAE to receive both the “Leed Platinum” and “Fitwel 3-Star” certificates. These two certificates are the highest level in the field of environmental sustainability and human health, and is a sign of Eldar’s commitment to responsible and targeted construction.
