01Practice

A studio for thoughtful building.

Established in Dubai in 2013, AREC is an engineering consultancy of architects, structural and MEP engineers working under a single roof — and a single point of view.

We believe a building is not a transaction. It's a quiet contract between a client, a place, and the people who will live or work inside it for decades. Our practice is built to honour that contract: confident in the deal we make, creative in the style we bring, and uncompromising on the details that make a project endure.

Approved as G+12 consultants and registered with Dubai Municipality, the Civil Engineering Department and DDA, we work daily alongside the developers shaping the country — from Emaar and Nakheel to TECOM and Dubai Properties — and with private clients whose ambitions stretch across the UAE and abroad.

02Services

From feasibility to final handover — all under one roof.

01

Pre-Design
& Feasibility

Cost planning, risk assessment, site analysis and feasibility studies. The work that decides whether a project should exist — and on what terms.

02

Architectural
Design

Concepts that revive heritage and welcome the contemporary. We work interactively with clients to translate brief into form.

03

Structural
Engineering

Up to G+12. Calculations, modelling and documentation that meet the standards of Dubai Municipality, CED and DDA — and the realities of the site.

04

MEP
Consultancy

Mechanical, electrical, plumbing — designed integrated with the architecture, not bolted on. Sustainable systems where they matter most.

05

Site
Supervision

We stay on site from mobilisation to handover. Professional oversight that holds contractors to drawings and clients to budget.

06

Project
Management

Deadlines met. Costs controlled. Success delivered. Clients trust us to manage every moving part of their build, end to end.

03Approach

A practice of four stages — and one continuous conversation.

STAGE 01

Listen.

The client is the soul of the project. We begin by understanding intent, site, and the life the building is meant to hold.

STAGE 02

Draw.

Concepts presented as options — a variety of styles and approaches — so the brief evolves through discussion, not delivery.

STAGE 03

Engineer.

Architecture, structure and MEP resolved together. Authority submissions handled by the team that drew the project.

STAGE 04

Deliver.

On site through mobilisation, construction and handover. The drawing on the page becomes the building on the street.

04Selected Projects

A growing portfolio across the UAE.

A selection of recent and ongoing work — residential, commercial, mixed-use and interior projects delivered for developers, government bodies and private clients.

05Team

The people behind every drawing.

A young, highly efficient team of architects and engineers — long enough in the field to know what works, current enough to know what's next.

06Client Voices

Trusted by developers, private clients and authorities across the UAE.

07Insights

Notes from the studio.

Field notes, regulatory updates and writing from the AREC team — on the practice of building in the UAE.
