This Triplex Penthouse in Dubai Is the Height of Sophistication

Posted on December 1, 2023January 27, 2025 by kilograph

Luxury, in relation to residential property, can be a subjective concept. For some, it’s space and privacy; for others, it’s expansive views and a connection to nature; and for others, it’s top-notch amenities, beautifully designed interiors and exquisite finishes. The new, much-anticipated six-bedroom triplex penthouse at Mr C Residences Jumeirah in Dubai is in the rare position of being able to offer all of these desirable assets, and more.

Curated by Alta Real Estate, the development occupies an enviable spot on the Dubai Canal, with breathtaking views of the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai skyline. What’s more, the lifestyle it offers within its walls is similarly second to none.

Mr C Residences is the brainchild of Maggio and Ignazio Cipriani, fourth-generation members of the famous Italian family that opened the iconic Harry’s Bar in Venice in 1931. The philosophy of the group remains a dedication to living well and living in style; Italian flair and the highest standards of both design and service are integral to its residences.

The triplex forms the crown to an architectural masterpiece: the curvaceous building, a collaboration between Alta Real Estate and the renowned architect Bernardo Fort-Brescia of Arquitectonica, is inspired by the undulating desert dunes and ocean waves that define its location.

But there is plenty to delight the eye within the penthouse, too – for example, the sculptural lacquered staircase that is the centerpiece of the double-height living area, spiraling up to the bedrooms and roof garden above.

The interiors, accessed by a private elevator, are the creative vision of the esteemed interior designer Will Meyer of the New York-based design boutique Meyer Davis, whose portfolio includes projects for the Four Seasons, Rosewood and W hotel groups, along with fashionable restaurants and luxurious residences around the world. Here, he has specified natural materials of the highest quality that exude a timeless ambience, from the extra-wide light oak floorboards in the living areas and bedrooms to the natural stone that wraps around the bathrooms and the kitchen island.

Throughout, the sophisticated interiors have been created with relaxation and entertaining in mind, and serve to enhance the sheer sense of scale within the triplex. A sumptuous upholstered headboard flanked by rich wooden paneling in the master bedroom adds comfort, while emphasizing the height of the room; statement ceiling lights and floor lamps punctuate the living areas; and sheer drapes provide the subtlest separation from the glittering city views beyond. The utmost attention to detail has been employed in every element of the interior of the triplex penthouse, to ensure a superlative standard of living.

The outside spaces, too, have been afforded the same degree of care and status. The stunning, fully landscaped rooftop garden provides not only a serene, private haven from the bustling city life below, but also an entertaining and leisure zone: there are sitting and dining areas surrounded by lush, leafy planting, and three outdoor swimming pools: two on the terraces, and the third on the roof, offering the perfect vantage point to take in the panoramic views.

Exclusivity, refinement and taste are at the very heart of this one-of-a-kind triplex penthouse in Dubai; when it comes to unparalleled luxury, it has every angle covered. The Mr C Triplex is scheduled for completion in December 2023 and is available for viewing now.

DUBAI, UAE – Cipriani introduces Mr. C Residences in Jumeirah, Dubai – the second luxury residential complex to arise from the fourth generation Cipriani family, following Mr. C Residences in Coconut Grove, Miami. Designed by the award-winning architecture firm Arquitectonica with interiors by Meyer Davis, and located in the heart of Jumeirah, boasting unparalleled views of the Burj Khalifa from the Dubai Canal.

“Living in Mr. C Residences Jumeirah is like embarking on a journey on a classic Italian yacht through the Arabian Gulf every day. It’s a perfect combination between the quintessential European style and the grandiose comfort of living in Dubai,” says Ignazio Cipriani.

In a city that was built in the heart of the desert then became one of the most glamorous destinations in the world, Mr. C Residences Jumeirah was built as a home for individuals who appreciate a life of modernity and sophistication– offering its residents a look into the futuristic and luxurious downtown Dubai, yet offering a nostalgic feeling derived from its views of the historical Dubai Creek. Therefore, it offers residents access to two culturally diverse and unique sides of one of the world’s most pioneering cities.

In 1931, on a tiny street off of Venice’s magnificent Piazza San Marco, Giuseppe Cipriani opened Harry’s Bar. In the decades that followed, the welcoming atmosphere and thoughtful attention to detail made this intimate space an iconic destination for stylish locals and international visitors, including European royalty, literary figures, and global celebrities.

Today, 90 years later, brothers Maggio and Ignazio Cipriani, members of the fourth generation of the Cipriani family, have drawn on their rich familial history as well as their own 21st-century perspectives to create Mr. C, a luxury hospitality and residential brand for glamorous modern living. Mr. C Residences live up to the highest standards of design and are set in the most extraordinary global locations. Honoring the approach to service that began in their great-grandfather’s single, thoughtfully conceived bar on Calle Vallaresso, the brothers have made personalized attention offered with genuine care an integral part of Mr. C’s identity.

Mr. C Residences Jumeirah is a contemporary take on classic European living. Inspired by Old World sophistication and modern comfort, these residences are infused with Arabian flair and strengthened by a service lifestyle experience perfected by Cipriani’s fourth generation of stewardship. Mr. C Residences Jumeirah is home to those who appreciate finer things; those who live their lives with an inherent sense of style and believe that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. It is for those who understand that modern living is a culmination of the little details.

“Our vision emerges from the idea that the good life is timeless, it’s where modernism meets the art of European living. Mr. C Residences Jumeirah takes cues from these notions, and from the character of its location, to curate a modern take on the classic idea of sophistication and style. Enjoying your morning espresso on your spacious outdoor private terrace, then taking a dip in your own plunge pool, or spending the afternoon lounging on your private rooftop gardens are just a few of the exclusive experiences Mr. C Residences Jumeirah puts at your fingertips. This timelessly chic residential oasis offers the coveted Dubai lifestyle from beaches and boating to Italian-style dining and energetic social spaces, which are just steps from their front door.” Maggio & Ignazio Cipriani.

Among its defining features, the building takes a signature curvaceous shape to mirror the Canal it looks over, while spacious outdoor terraces feature private plunge pools. It’s a timeless haven for privacy in which residences benefit from private elevators to each floor, penthouses with private rooftop gardens, and unmatched Burj Khalifa views from the exclusive penthouse-only back tower.

Each residence features an open floorplan layout with floor-to-ceiling glass windows offering canal and city views, private outdoor terraces with plunge pools, private roof gardens, private roof fire pits, summer kitchens, private elevators, Italian terrazzo and quartz countertops, wood flooring, Italkraft and Miele appliances, automated smart home solutions, digital key and parking entry, and more. Luxury amenities include a Bellini Café, poolside cabanas with food & beverage service, in-home dining and delivery, a cocktail and juice bar at Bridge Lounge, an indoor screening room and outdoor movie theater, a children’s learning and adventure lab, Little C’s Children’s Learning & Adventure Lab, a gym with Technogym equipment, a lap pool, outdoor yoga space, a salon treatment room with massages, steam, and sauna services. Unique services include a designated app, butler service, a lobby lounge with curated art pieces, doorman and security, valet, housekeeping, a mailroom, parking, tailoring and dry cleaning, and chauffeur services.

Additionally, Mr. C Residences Jumeirah will include Cipriani’s signature Bellini Café, an Italian culinary tradition that started over ninety years ago by Ignazio and Maggio’s great-grandfather Giuseppe Cipriani in 1931. The 4th generation brothers have traveled back to Italy in search of dishes, flavors, and ingredients to inspire what is now a modern interpretation of Italian cooking. Bellini Café offers timeless Italian fare in a relaxed, approachable space, bringing guests authentic flavors and recipes from Italy’s many regions. Using only the finest, freshest regional and imported products, Bellini Café will feature both loved and recognized traditional dishes and newer artisan plates. Menu highlights include delicious pastries, decadent gelato, homemade pasta, fresh salads, grilled specialties, and sweet or savory crepes. Residents and their guests can choose to eat inside the dining room or sit on the terrace, watching the world sail by while they sip a cappuccino.
