As Dubai continues its transformation into a leading global business destination, the demand for commercial spaces that embody its progressive vision and vibrant energy has never been greater.
Addressing this evolution, OMNIYAT has introduced Lumena a 48-storey, ultra-luxury office tower set to redefine the standards of premium workplace environments in the emirate. Strategically located at the intersection of Sheikh Zayed Road and the Burj Khalifa district, where Business Bay converges with Downtown Dubai, Lumena stands as a striking example of architectural sophistication and forward-thinking commercial design.
An Icon in the Making
Lumena was formally unveiled on June 18 at the Museum of the Future, accompanied by a dramatic sound and light presentation that reflected the development’s ambitious vision. With a gross development value of AED 3.6 billion, the project is positioned to set a new benchmark in the realm of premium commercial real estate. An architectural model highlighting the tower’s design is on exhibit at The Opus by OMNIYAT until June 22.
Smart DesignÂ
Derived from the Latin word lumen (light) and the Japanese ena (blessing), the name Lumena embodies the principles of purpose, clarity, and progress. These values are intricately reflected in the tower’s biophilic architecture and expansive, panoramic design. Offering unobstructed views of the Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Beach, and the Burj Al Arab, the building is thoughtfully designed to create an inspiring environment for its occupants.
The development’s location further enhances its appeal. Positioned adjacent to the Business Bay metro station and within close proximity to key landmarks such as the Burj Khalifa and Dubai International Airport, Lumena offers exceptional connectivity. The tower includes dual vehicular access and provides more than 1,000 dedicated parking spaces for office occupants, retail visitors, and guests.
Workspace Reinvented
Lumena comprises 91 shell-and-core office units across three categories: 59 regular offices 30 half-floor offices 2 full-floor offices:
- 59 regular officesÂ
- 30 half-floor officesÂ
- 2 full-floor offices
Encompassing a built-up office area exceeding 582,000 sq. ft., the tower is designed to offer optimal flexibility and efficiency. Features such as 3-metre clear-height ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and column-minimised floorplates maximise both natural light and usable space. The rear-core configuration enhances circulation and privacy, while the shell-and-core layout allows tenants full autonomy in customising their interior environments.
A Lifestyle-Centric Approach
Aligned with OMNIYAT’s tradition of integrating hospitality into commercial developments, Lumena provides a comprehensive range of on-site concierge and lifestyle services. These offerings encompass meeting room coordination, event planning, wellness and spa arrangements, private travel bookings, and curated luxury retail services.
A key feature of the development is the Executive Club—an exclusive, members-only setting located on the upper office levels. Tailored for senior executives, it offers private lounges, dedicated meeting areas, and comprehensive concierge services. More than a workspace, it is conceived as a refined environment for leadership and strategic engagement.

- LEED Platinum (sustainable development)Â
- WELL Platinum (health and wellbeing)Â
