Research showing people thrive when connected with nature<\/strong> could be blueprint for Keturah Reserve<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dubai, UAE,:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mediterranean olive trees dating back to Ancient Greece and the dawn of Western civilization are heading for Dubai to become the centrepiece of a luxury residential community designed around nature and wellness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sourced from Spain and Italy, some of the trees bound for Keturah Reserve are up to 2,500 years old, and cost as much as AED 1 million each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to recent research, it is money well spent by MAG, develope<\/a>r<\/a><\/em> of the AED5.7 billion bio-living residential community at Mohammed Bin Rashid City’s District 7 in Meydan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A peer-reviewed study earlier this year showed that people living in homes with biophilic design elements, connecting them with nature, report 35% higher satisfaction levels and 28% improved mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research also showed that the mix of organic materials and natural architectural shapes raises comfort levels by 40%, while indoor vegetation reduces stress levels by 22%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study results could be seen as a blueprint for Keturah Reserve, where layouts for the 533 low-rise apartments, 93 townhouses and 90 villas have been optimized for natural light and cross ventilation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interiors abound with natural materials and greenery to support daily wellbeing. Bio-living features include landscaping designed for scent and sound, natural ventilation, advanced air and water purification, and circadian lighting to improve sleep, mood, and energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Every element enhances sustainability and harmony with the environment, so residents will thrive,” said Talal M. Al Gaddah, CEO and Founder of the Keturah luxury brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The centuries old olive trees, both symbolic and functional, will be transported via specialized cargo and replanted using heritage preservation techniques to help them adapt to Dubai’s climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They bring history, calm, and a sense of permanence,” said Talal, who has conceived a natural gallery, where a forest of trees from around the world blend with art installations and sculptural dry gardens, just a short drive from Downtown Dubai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Keturah Reserve development includes a resident hub with spa and fitness facilities, multiple infinity pools, and rooftop yoga and meditation spaces, alongside Pilates and WaterBike classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Park at the centre of the 405,543 square-metre site features Japanese foot massage mats and open-air exercise zones. Children’s amenities range from Montessori programmes to a Bio Living Farm and kids’ spa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Handovers at Keturah Reserve begin with townhouses in Q2 2027, followed by apartments in Q3-Q4 2027, and villas in Q1 2028.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
