Introduction

MASK Architects is thrilled to introduce an unparalleled project that redefines luxury living in the Middle East—UAE's first floating villas, part of the esteemed Ritz-Carlton Reserve on Ramhan Island, Abu Dhabi at 2029. This project, spearheaded by the renowned developer Eagle Hills, embodies the pinnacle of modern architectural innovation and luxury, setting a new benchmark for elite residential experiences in the region.

Project Overview

Located in the serene waters surrounding Ramhan Island, these floating villas represent a harmonious fusion of state-of-the-art design, luxury, and nature. The development comprises 50 exclusive waterfront villas, each meticulously crafted to offer an immersive indoor-outdoor living experience. These residences are designed not just as homes but as sanctuaries that connect inhabitants with the natural beauty of their surroundings, while simultaneously providing all the comforts of modern living.

Sand Island Masterplan Development : Butterfly Island

The Sand Island masterplan is a visionary project inspired by the elegant form and functionality of a butterfly. This unique concept has been meticulously divided into various zones, creating a series of open spaces that foster both community interaction and private retreat. The design leverages natural elements, with the butterfly's wings symbolizing canopies that provide shade and shelter, enhancing the comfort of users throughout the day.

The layout of the island is surrounded by expansive sand and sundeck areas, offering residents and visitors a serene environment where they can unwind and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of their surroundings. These areas are thoughtfully designed to accommodate a variety of activities, from daytime relaxation under the sun to evening gatherings under the stars. The integration of natural design principles ensures that the island harmonizes with its environment, creating a seamless blend of architecture and nature.

The masterplan includes both private and communal lounge spaces, catering to different preferences for solitude or socialization. The central zones of the island feature a destination restaurant and a welcoming point, with both indoor and outdoor seating options available. These areas are designed to be flexible, accommodating everything from casual dining to more formal occasions, all within a setting that emphasizes the natural beauty of the island.

Accessibility is a key feature of the Sand Island design, with well-planned pathways connecting the main island to the floating villas. This ensures that residents can easily move between their private residences and the communal areas of the island, enjoying the full range of amenities available. The floating villas, which are part of the broader Ramhan Island development, are seamlessly integrated into the masterplan, offering a unique living experience that is both connected to and distinct from the main island.

Overall, the Sand Island masterplan is a celebration of innovative design and natural beauty, creating a luxurious yet sustainable environment where residents can enjoy the best of both worlds. The butterfly-inspired layout, combined with thoughtful zoning and natural elements, makes Sand Island a standout example of modern architectural excellence.

Architectural Design and Features

The architectural vision for the floating villas is rooted in sustainability and luxury, seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology with natural elements. Each villa features expansive terraces, private pools, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer panoramic views of the tranquil seascape. The open-plan layouts emphasize fluidity between indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing residents to enjoy the serene environment from every corner of their homes.

The villas are equipped with the latest amenities, ensuring a lifestyle of convenience and sophistication. The architectural design focuses on maximizing natural light and ventilation, reducing energy consumption while enhancing the living experience. The floating structures are not only aesthetically pleasing but are also engineered to be environmentally responsible, reflecting MASK Architects' commitment to sustainable design practices.
