Dubai will forever be known as the city that pushes the boundaries of architectural design. From the World’s tallest tower to the world’s (soon-to-be) first upside-down skyscraper and so much more. And now Dubai is going for a new record – the world’s second skinniest skyscraper, measuring in at an astonishing 22.5 meters wide! The Muraba Veil stand will stand 380 metres tall and will get its skinny facade from only being one apartment wide. Sounds like nothing you’ve heard of before right? Come with me, and I’ll share even more impressive details about The Muraba Veil with you.

Making A Bold Statement Along Sheikh Zayed Road
The Muraba Veil will soon be located along the bustling Sheikh Zayed Road and overlook the Dubai Canal, standing out from the crowd with its sleek design. At only 22.5 metres wide, it challenges the traditional ideas of what a skyscraper should look like. This 73-storey structure is a modern architectural marvel that redefines Dubai’s skyline with its unique and minimalist form.
Luxury Living At New Heights
Designed by the renowned Spanish firm RCR Arquitectes, winners of the prestigious Pritzker Prize, the Muraba Veil will house 131 exclusive apartments. Each apartment will span the entire width of the building, offering breathtaking, panoramic views from both sides. On top of that, residents will have access to an array of luxurious amenities, including a spa, fine dining restaurant, art gallery, private cinema, and even a padel court.

A Veil Of Modern Elegance
What really sets the Muraba Veil apart is its stainless steel exterior, or “veil,” which wraps around the building, giving it a sleek and futuristic look. This design was deeply inspired by local culture. The apartments are modelled after traditional Arab homes, complete with an internal courtyard, creating a serene and private oasis in the heart of the city.
With its cutting-edge design and cultural roots, the Muraba Veil is set to be one of Dubai’s most iconic buildings, offering a truly unique living experience.
