In the heart of Dubai Land Residential Complex (DLRC), construction of REEF 1000 has officially commenced. This innovative project by REEF Luxury Developments is renowned for a world first: the Sunken Balcony, a recessed balcony with outdoor cooling. This allows residents to sit outside comfortably all year round, even when temperatures rise to 50 degrees.
Each balcony is equipped with a system that allows the temperature to be set, for example to 20 degrees. The cooling is provided by ventilation grilles that blow cold air, without the high cost of traditional air conditioning. Thanks to the use of solar panels on the roof, the energy costs are even lower.
The Sunken Balcony is patented and unique in the UAE. With a project value of AED 175 million (approximately €48 million), REEF 1000 focuses on comfort and sustainability. During the groundbreaking ceremony, the first of 126 olive trees was planted, a symbol of the long lifespan and the strong connection to nature that the project aims to embody.
Beyond the striking balconies, REEF 1000 offers a modern living environment that aligns with Dubai’s vision for innovation and sustainable urban development. With its combination of unique architecture, smart technology, and green elements, this project promises to set a new standard for luxury living in Dubai.
