AtkinsRéalis has been appointed by ORA Developers to provide master planning, infrastructure, and public realm design services for BAYN. The project is ORA’s flagship waterfront community in Ghantoot, a developing coastal address situated within the Dubai–Abu Dhabi growth corridor.
Ghantoot is recognised for its combination of rare beachfront land, robust connectivity, and substantial long-term potential for placemaking. BAYN, located in this setting, is part of a broader trend towards planned, mixed-use coastal communities that align with the evolving lifestyle, mobility, and liveability expectations in the UAE, said a statement.
AtkinsRéalis’ recent appointment reinforces its established Buildings and Places portfolio in the region and supports ongoing collaboration with developers shaping the next generation of urban destinations. The firm’s scope encompasses master planning, infrastructure coordination, and public realm design, integrating these elements from the earliest stages of development, it added.
Matthew Tribe, Senior Vice President – Buildings and Places, AtkinsRéalis Middle East and Africa said, “Projects such as BAYN reflect the direction in which waterfront communities across the region are evolving, shaped around how people live, move, and connect over time. Conceived as a coherent coastal destination, BAYN brings together landscape, infrastructure, and community life within a single long‑term vision.”
He added, “Working alongside ORA from the earliest stages enables us to apply our global master planning expertise and regional insight to help shape a place defined by quality, adaptability, and a strong sense of place, designed to endure and serve future generations.”
Amr Abdel Moneim, Chief Technical Officer, ORA Developers commented, “BAYN reflects ORA’s ambition to create a waterfront destination shaped by a clear and considered approach to how people experience the spaces they’re in. From the outset, our priority is to carry the clarity of our long-term vision into precise, efficient and high-quality design, that feels grounded, connected to its natural setting, and responsive to everyday life.”
“Partnering with AtkinsRéalis from the early stages has enabled us with the world-class expertise and rigour required for a development of this scale. The appointment marks an important milestone in BAYN’s next stage of design development. At ORA, we are committed to delivering BAYN without compromise, a coastal community in Ghantoot defined by quality, connectivity and long-term value for residents, visitors and the wider Dubai–Abu Dhabi growth corridor,” he continued.
BAYN envisions itself as an integrated coastal community that combines residential neighborhoods with expansive public realm, active mobility networks, and community amenities. The 4.8m sqm development dedicates over half of its site to open spaces, landscaping, and water features.
The project is anchored by 1.2km of natural Arabian Gulf beachfront and over 7km of waterfront, featuring a marina, lagoons, promenades, parks, sports facilities, and integrated retail, hospitality, and community amenities, the statement noted.
The collaboration brings together ORA Developers’ vision for BAYN with AtkinsRéalis’ technical expertise and creative design prowess. The partnership reflects a shared commitment to quality, coherence, and planning throughout the project’s journey from concept to implementation, it concluded.
