If Al Marjan Island were a runway, this would be its mic-drop moment.
In a move that’s equal parts stylish and strategic, One Broker Group (OBG) has officially been appointed as the Exclusive Sales Partner in the UAE for AARK Developers’ latest landmark residential project — and yes, it’s branded by the globally iconic KARL LAGERFELD. Fashion meets waterfront living? We’re listening.
A Big Signing, A Bigger Statement
The signing ceremony wasn’t just a formality — it marked a major milestone for all involved and firmly placed Al Marjan Island back in the global spotlight. Already known for its waterfront charm, the island is quickly becoming the destination for branded, lifestyle-driven real estate — and this project takes that narrative up several notches.
Not Just Branded. Fully Fashion-House Branded.
Here’s where things get exciting. While Al Marjan Island has seen branded residences before, this development breaks new ground as the first fully managed fashion-house-branded residence on the island. Translation? This isn’t just a logo slapped on a building — it’s a carefully curated lifestyle experience that blends architectural integrity, operational excellence, and long-term value. Think less “trend of the moment,” more timeless investment piece.
Views, Value & Very Strong Vibes
Strategically positioned with views towards the upcoming Wynn Resort, the USD 1.4 billion+ development comes with direct beach access, over 50 lifestyle amenities, and more than 600 sea-facing residences. It’s big. It’s bold. And it’s designed to age as well as Karl’s monochrome aesthetic.
With Al Marjan Island evolving at speed, demand is expected to be strong — and yes, Expressions of Interest are now officially open. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to look at design-led waterfront living with serious long-term potential, this might just be it.
What the Leaders Are Saying
Pier Paolo Righi, CEO of KARL LAGERFELD, summed it up perfectly, “This project represents an important evolution of KARL LAGERFELD’s residential portfolio in the region, it reflects our commitment to translating Karl’s visionary design language into a breathtaking large-scale residential experience.”
Rahul Kumar Gupta, Chairman of AARK Developers, said, “This project represents a defining moment for Al Marjan Island. Partnering with the KARL LAGERFELD brand allows us to introduce a fully managed, fashion-house-branded residential concept that elevates both the lifestyle offering and investment proposition. Appointing One Broker Group as our exclusive sales partner ensures the project is positioned and executed with the level of market expertise and international reach this development deserves.”
And from One Broker Group’s side, Founder & CEO Umar Bin Farooq expressed strong confidence in the project’s potential by saying, “We are extremely proud to be appointed as the exclusive sales partner for this landmark development. The KARL LAGERFELD brings global credibility and lifestyle appeal, and together with Al Marjan Island’s evolution and proximity to Wynn Resort, this represents a highly compelling investment opportunity for both end-users and investors.
The Bottom Line
This isn’t just another residential launch — it’s a statement. A fashion-forward, future-focused development that blends lifestyle, design, and scale in a way Al Marjan Island hasn’t seen before. If waterfront living with couture credentials sounds like your kind of move, you’ll want to keep this one firmly on your radar.
