'Citi Developers commissions Alec Monopoly for ARYA: A Neo-Luxury landmark on Dubai Islands'

ARYA by Citi Developers commissions Alec Monopoly for its waterfront artistic Neo-Luxury Dubai, UAE — Citi Developers unveils ARYA, a residential statement on Dubai Islands, where form and feeling are balanced. A space shaped by calm geometry, natural materials, and purposeful artistic direction.

To enhance this vision, Citi Developers has commissioned the art from globally acclaimed artist Alec Monopoly, who is contributing a selection of exclusive works that elevate key spaces within the tower.

As part of this journey, guests had a rare opportunity to witness the artist at work during an exclusive contract signing ceremony at the Citi Developers experience center, offering an intimate glimpse into Alec Monopoly’s first painting for ARYA..

“ARYA is a quiet departure from the expected,” says Zoraiz Malik, CEO of Citi Developers.

“We wanted the spaces to feel alive—not with noise, but with energy. Alec’s work brings that — a touch of irreverence within refined restraint.”.

From the immersive Galore Ground Floor with Alec Monopoly’s grand graffiti in the triple-height lobby to the horizon-defining Eleventh Sky, ARYA offers a sensory journey through wellness, water, and wonder. Roman thermal baths, bespoke hammams, cinematic lounges, and suspended rooftop bars are not simply amenities — they are the true inspiration for the lovers of Neo-Luxury..

Set on Dubai Islands, ARYA is a place to pause, reflect, and engage with space in a more considered way. It is not loud, but it lingers.
