Dubai Design District (d3) is a planned community in Dubai dedicated to the design, fashion, and culture community, including startups, entrepreneurs, and international design, luxury, and fashion brands.[1] [2] It was established in 2013.[3] [4] [5] [6] It is a TECOM Group freezone business park consisting of three phases, the first of which is 11 building offices, completed in 2016.[1]
The district hosts some regional and international brands and design houses such as Adidas, Nike, and Foster + Partners.[7] [2] It comprises office spaces, retail boutiques, workshops, hotels, residential areas, and restaurants and cafes.[8]
The district allows professionals and freelancers who do not hold UAE citizenship to obtain a license from the free zone and authorizes them to have sole ownership of their projects.[8] Dubai Design District also holds the Dubai Design Week in November.[9]
d3 is located close to Mohammed bin Rashid City and adjacent to Dubai's Business Bay. The district is situated beside Dubai Creek, and behind Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall.[10] Amina Al Rustimani was the CEO of the development company behind d3.[11]
In 2020, a smart police station was opened in the district to provide security services to the public around the clock. The station offers around 46 different services under four categories: security, traffic, community, and certificates. [12]
In 2024, a temporary stadium in Dubai Design District hosted 2024 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup from the 15th to the 25th of February 2024.[13]
