Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, has announced its partnership with UK-based design studio Kettle Collective for the concept design of twelve buildings in its approximately AED 30 billion mixed-use development, Azizi Venice, located in Dubai South.
Industry sources added that Founded in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 2012, Kettle Collective is an architectural firm known for its innovative and sustainable designs. With a global presence, the brand is powered by a team of experienced architects and designers. Kettle Collective has garnered recognition for its cutting-edge approach to architecture, tackling projects ranging from commercial developments to cultural landmarks.

Their commitment to pushing boundaries and embracing new technologies ensures that each project they undertake leaves a lasting impression on the built environment. We eagerly anticipate their creative concept designs, and we are confident that they will add tremendous value to our Venice projects, helping us in our pursuit of excellence.”
Azizi Venice will comprise more than 30,000 residential units across approximately 100 apartment complexes, and over 400 luxury villas and mansions. Azizi Developments is taking on the role of master developer, in charge of constructing the buildings, roads, and all the infrastructure.
Industry sources added that at the heart of Azizi Venice lies its luxurious pedestrian-friendly boulevard, which will be open-air in the winter and glass-covered in the summer to ensure a temperature-controlled space with year-round activity and visitors. Lined with three-storey buildings planned to host the world’s top retailers and brands, nightlife, and entertainment options, as well as eateries that represent a vast number of countries from across the world, Azizi Boulevard will represent a new and unique point of interest on Dubai’s map of outstanding sights.
Another major attraction to be developed within Azizi Venice is Azizi Opera. Located at the heart of the boulevard and built to the highest, most contemporary standards in design and architecture, Azizi Opera will become one of the most notable venues for cultural and community events in Dubai.
