|March 2025
DUBAI property developer Binghatti is building some of the most striking and architecturally complex towers in the emirate including the Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co Residences, One by Binghatti, Mercedes-Benz Places by Binghatti, and Bugatti Residences by Binghatti.
-
To give shape to these four towering projects that feature intricate geometries, the developer has partnered with Austriabased Doka as its main formwork supplier to provide cutting-edge construction solutions for these gravity-defying buildings.
Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co Residences will become the flagship location of luxury horologist brand Jacob & Co and feature a design inspired by the intricacy of the watchmaker; One by Binghatti is a sophisticated waterfront premium apartment complex with access to world-class dining, shopping and entertainment; Mercedes-Benz Places by Binghatti, being developed in cooperation with the German car manufacturer, offers exclusive apartments, each with a private pool; and Bugatti Residences by Binghatti incorporates a meticulously designed, contoured curving facade.
Each project necessitates particular construction ingenuity owing to the unique design, eye-catching geometries and daring heights, according to Binghatti.
