2. THE ROOTS
A small community within AKOYA Oxygen, with a wonderful
green backdrop, The Roots focuses on culture and creativity. It’s
a neighbourhood of young professionals, who are contemporary,
yet pragmatic, in their style; fashionable and conscious of the
bigger picture in the modern world.
3. PRESENTING A
MODERN ‘LOCAL’
CULTURE
The Roots offers residents and guests the perfect balance
between the vibrancy of city life, the serenity of AKOYA Oxygen
and the quirkiness of creativity in all of its artistic forms. Here,
there’s a new culture that celebrates art, amid the lush expanses
of nature.
4. A COOL NEW
NEIGHBOURHOOD
Taking inspiration from some of the world’s hipster hubs, The
Roots takes its cues from the lively streets of Williamsburg in
New York and the vibrancy of London’s Shoreditch; as well as
the bohemian charms of Canal Saint-Martin in Paris and the
creative edginess of Melbourne’s Fitzroy. These characteristics
and more, result in a unique neighbourhood.

THE LUXURY
OF LOCATION
Just a 10-minute drive along the Umm Sequiem Road brings
you to the gates of the development, which also boasts easy
access to the city’s major arterial road networks at a moment’s
notice. So close to everything, yet it feels like a world apart.
7. THE OPEN
AIR DESIGNER
FASHION
MARKET
Bringing a collection of new fashion designers to the fore, The
Open Air Designer Fashion Market will present cutting edge
clothing trends for men and women. Here, you’ll discover styles
and labels from designers never seen before, offering unique
pieces – something a little different from the usual mall experience.
8. THE V
RESTAURANT
The V redefines the concept of ‘fine’ dining. Our chefs use the
freshest organic ingredients, from our farm market in AKOYA
Oxygen, many of which are grown on site. A varied menu of
vegetarian dishes will be on offer, with one or two signature
courses, that consider not only the flavour and texture of the
food but aim to promote optimum health and vitality too. The V
serves food for the heart and soul.
9. THE GREEN
AN OUTDOOR SPACE FOR
PRESENTATIONS AND
PERFORMANCES
Balmy evenings and cooler days lend themselves to a variety of al
fresco performances. Whether it’s a poetry reading or another
form of performance art, such as a book presentation, or a mini
theatre production, you’ll see it here first.
11. LUXURY
GOURMET
'STREET FOOD'
Hearty dishes of delicious, freshly cooked foods from around
the world await you in our famous chef’s incredibly up market
interpretation of ‘street fare’. Using local produce, where possible,
and clean, healthy-living recipes, this is casual dining at its finest,
served from our state-of-the-art mobile kitchen, lending that
‘street feel’ to the occasion.
12. ART IN THE
COMMUNITY
The community itself will play host to open air installations of
art and sculpture from contemporary artists – using a huge mix
of materials, such as clay, wood and stone, along with more
industrial components. The perfect setting to showcase a selection
of pieces, the community spaces and streets of The Roots will
be a living canvas.

RESIDENTIAL
ADDRESS IN
DUBAI
Luxury and greenery embrace you with open arms at AKOYA
Oxygen. This breathtaking community is home to some of the
most unseen marvels inspired by nature. Cleaner air, naturally
cooler temperatures and efficient landscaping irrigation systems
are just few of its many secrets.
29. NATURE AND
LUXURY IN
HARMONY
AKOYA Oxygen is a residential community with a difference. It’s
a masterpiece that isn’t just architecturally accomplished. In fact,
with a wide variety of trees across one million square metres,
it’s a way of life in perfect harmony with natural beauty that’s
both luxurious and sustainable.
30. GREEN IS THE
NEW CULTURE
Solar power, eco-friendly interiors and low-emission paints, along
with energy efficient controls for lighting, water and air-
conditioning all help to uphold the environmentally conscious
theme. Refuse is separated for recycling and the road network
has been designed to minimise pollution, helped further by
dedicated spaces for bicycles, hybrids and electric vehicles. It’s
all about living at one with nature.
