Frank Williams is respected and revered for his contribution to the New York skyline, with skyscrapers such as the Trump Palace, Four Seasons, W Times Square, as well as his architectural creations worldwide. Williams’ innovative designs incorporate a refined understanding of modern urban living as well as respect for the local climate and culture of the surrounding areas.
Internationally renowned UAE-based property developer Emaar partnered with world-famous architect Frank Williams to design and develop the exclusive address of 29 Burj Dubai Boulevard, a set of two iconic towers located in the heart of Downtown Burj Dubai, home to the world’s tallest building.
29 Burj Dubai Blvd grabs the heart of the consumer with both hands

The property market in Dubai is a crowded with a multitude of new luxury buildings competing for investors’ attention.
Branding the experience
We created a brand that captures the offering and defines the personality, experience and promise of the brand.
In particular, we focussed the brand on the people who will live there: young professionals who are career oriented, successful and want an exclusive address in the heart of the city, but also an urban retreat to which they can escape.

Working with the client
“The wonderful collaboration between the respective teams at Emaar and The Brand Union enabled us to break through the clutter and lack of creativity that has started to characterize the real estate sector,” says Emaar's Executive Director of Marketing & Sales, Alex John Andarakis.
“The Brand Union understood that in order to land a successful brand within the UAE and Middle East market, you not only have to win the mind of the consumer, but inspire, motivate and grab the heart with both hands. 29 Burj Dubai Blvd did just that and more.”
An up and coming address
The buildings are not a destination, they are an address on Burj Dubai Boulevard, hence our decision to name them simply “29”. This is deliberately understated, projects a confident mystique that talks the language of a luxury brand. Creatively, we were inspired by the Art Deco architecture style of the building and Frank Williams.
The brand development needed to capture this architectural style while remaining contemporary in nature in order to deliver a true experience that the young, successful target audience would expect to find in such an exclusive address.
The experience is punctual across all communications, by using black and white images typical of a fashion brand along with inspired copy reflecting the essence of 29 Burj Dubai Boulevard.
Epitomising luxury, exclusivity and high-end style, the brand captures the imagination of investors and discerning property owners.
