Emaar Properties
in partnership with Armani are to develop an Armani Residences in Marassi, Emaar’s
flagship resort development in Egypt. Personally designed by fashion icon Giorgio Armani, this will be the first villa offering under the Armani
Residences collaboration.
Taking the ‘Live with Armani’ philosophy to Egypt, the Armani Residences, Marassi will be set on the Sidi Abdel Rahman Bay, one of the most
picturesque and historic beaches in the country.
The resort-style residences featuring a combination of stacked villas and
three and four-bedroom villas, all facing the Mediterranean Sea, will be
an integral part of Marassi, the EGP9.92 billion (US$1.74 billion) master-planned community developed by Emaar
Misr, a wholly-owned country subsidiary of Emaar.
Spread across 1,544 acres of tourist land, Marassi is an all-year round destination and enjoys
one of the best
stretches of beach on the North Coast. The 6.25 million sqm gated community has premier leisure amenities including a world-class beach resort,
a vibrant town centre, marina, golf course and hotels set amidst lush greenery and lagoons.
Mr Giorgio Armani
said, “While designing the Armani Residences, Marassi I integrated several elements that capture the serenity and calm of
beachfront living. I was also keen to present residents with personalised living spaces that conveyed the comfort, simplicity and understated
elegance - cornerstones of the Armani Residences offering.”
Mr Sameh Muhtadi, Chief Executive Officer, Emaar Misr for Development
S.A.E, added, “Marassi has several distinctive features that make it a
prized resort development including one of the region’s largest Marinas. A beach club and hotel are already operational and work on the resort is
progressing ahead of schedule. The Armani Residences at Marassi will further build its appeal as an unparalleled Mediterranean destination on
par with Greek, Italian or French beach resorts.”
The villa sizes range from 250 to 500 sqm with each unit featuring a private pool. Common area amenities include retail outlets, boardwalk
lounge, health club, reflective pool, resort club, screening room, swimming pools and pool deck. There will be designated reception and drop-off
points for the convenience of residents and guests.
The furnishing and bespoke finishes of all homes are master-designed by Mr Armani himself. An exclusive range of Armani/Casa home
furnishings – a variant of which is used at Armani Residences, Burj Dubai – will give elegant sophistication to the residences. These exclusive
residences will also feature automated systems for security, temperature and drapery control, lighting and air-conditioning.
Marassi, two hours by road from Cairo, is accessible from the Burj El Arab and El Alamein airports, both offering direct connections to major
European and Middle Eastern cities.
