Weydan  at Dubai Water Canal

Wedyan is the first ultra luxury residential tower in the Al Ghurair Collection, created as part of a new super prime portfolio. It is designed by Kengo Kuma, the world famous Japanese architect, and is his first project in the United Arab Emirates. The tower rises from the edge of the Dubai Canal with soft lines, natural colours and a façade that takes its cues from sand, water and planted terraces. The idea is simple and clear. Bring nature closer to city life and let people feel more grounded at home.

The building is planned as an ultra luxury landmark with a limited number of residences spread across a tall, elegant structure. Homes range from three bedroom to five bedroom layouts, along with full floor penthouses and a dramatic sky villa at the top. Every residence is shaped around deep outdoor terraces, framed canal views and sightlines to Downtown Dubai and the wider skyline. You get the sense that outdoor space is not an extra. It feels like part of the main living area rather than a small balcony on the side.

Kengo Kuma’s approach at Wedyan focuses on natural materials, layered greenery and soft light. The exterior carries tones of sand and stone, with planted balconies and shaded edges that help reduce glare and heat. Inside, the design leans toward simple lines, warm wood, textured stone and a gentle colour palette. It feels refined without being cold, and you can tell that the aim is comfort as much as visual impact. Life at Wedyan at Business Bay is built around wellness and thoughtful amenity planning. The tower includes an infinity style lap pool that looks over the canal, a spa with sauna, steam and cold therapy, fitness areas and social spaces where you can work, meet or relax. There is a business lounge, cinema lounge and dedicated work and play zones that support modern city life. Amenities are arranged over several levels in a kind of vertical masterplan, so there is a sense of journey as you move from arrival through to leisure and wellness spaces.

Canal facing residences at Wedyan in Business Bay

The residences at Wedyan at Business Bay are planned for people who care about both design and daily comfort. Three bedroom, four bedroom and five bedroom homes sit across generous floor plates with open living spaces and large terraces. Some layouts also include full floor penthouses and a three storey sky villa for those who want a real statement home on the canal. Each residence has been designed so that the main living area looks directly toward the water, with deep planted balconies that feel like gardens in the sky.

Inside, you can expect a clear split between social and private areas. Living, dining and entertaining spaces are open and flexible so you can host with ease, while bedrooms feel tucked away and quiet. Many homes include a main show kitchen and a separate back of house kitchen with its own access. This suits catered dinners, family living with staff, or simply a more organised way of handling day to day cooking. Storage, utility areas and service entrances are planned with the same care as the main rooms so that the home works smoothly in daily use.

Details reflect the ultra luxury position of Wedyan The Canal by Al Ghurair Collection. Finishes mix warm wood, natural stone and soft fabrics, with careful lighting that shifts through the day. Large sliding doors frame the canal, Downtown Dubai and the wider city. Some residences include private pavilions inspired by Japanese teahouses that can be used for meditation, art, reading or quiet work. It feels personal and human in scale, even though you are in a landmark tower on one of Dubai’s key waterways.

Amenity levels are treated almost as their own neighbourhoods in the sky. There are floors dedicated to fitness, including studios for pilates and focused training, along with wellness zones for treatment and quiet time. Other levels provide lounges, meeting rooms and creative spaces such as content rooms. Across a wide spread of amenities, the idea is that you can exercise, work, meet and unwind without leaving the building if you do not want to. For many residents, this blend of privacy, service and convenience is what makes an apartment for sale at Wedyan at Business Bay so appealing.
