RCR Arquitectes, laureates of the 2017 Pritzker Prize, view architecture as an opportunity to live in closer alignment with the surrounding natural environment. Muraba Dia, RCR’s residential project in Dubai, embodies this ethos: its floor-to-ceiling windows allow sunlight to penetrate seamlessly into every space, integrating the building into its coastal setting.

A foil-stamped greeting card captures the essence of the glass façade, showcasing RCR’s considered material choices and refined architectural approach. The louvered glass slats, moulded with a rippling pattern that echoes the surrounding seascape, provide residents with panoramic views while ensuring privacy.
