Imtiaz Development
The Archive by Imtiaz is a distinctive residential development in Dubai Land Residence Complex, offering fully furnished studios and one, two and three bedroom apartments. Designed around the concept of thoughtful, unhurried living, the development is centred on an impressive two storey library containing 10,000 books, complemented by a Writer’s Room, reading lounges and a rooftop Reading Salon. Residents will also enjoy rooftop swimming pools, a gym, outdoor cinema, barbecue lounge, landscaped gardens, floating cabanas, mini golf and dedicated areas for children and pets. With convenient access to Dubai Academic City, Silicon Oasis, Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport, The Archive combines memorable design, practical connectivity and a strong range of lifestyle amenities, with completion scheduled for Q3 2028.
The two-storey library, containing 10,000 books, gives the building a memorable identity in a location where many apartment projects look remarkably similar.
Imtiaz Developments was founded in 1993 and reports more than 2,000 completed units, supported by its own design, construction and property management capabilities.
Every apartment is delivered furnished, reducing the buyer’s initial setup costs and allowing the property to enter the rental market more quickly.
Prices begin from AED 666,000 for studios, AED 979,000 for one bedroom apartments, AED 1.55 million for two bedroom apartments and AED 1.9 million for three bedroom apartments.
The starting price per square foot becomes more attractive with the two and three bedroom layouts, providing better underlying value than the smallest apartments.
Dubai Academic City, Dubai Silicon Oasis and the surrounding business districts provide a substantial audience of students, professionals and families seeking rental accommodation.
Handover is scheduled for Q3 2028, allowing investors to reach the rental or resale stage sooner than many competing developments completing in 2029 or 2030.
Buyers can choose between a standard 50/50 payment plan or a plan that leaves 40 per cent payable over three years following handover, although the final price should be compared carefully.
The development includes rooftop pools, a gym, outdoor cinema, landscaped gardens, barbecue areas, floating cabanas, mini golf and dedicated facilities for children and pets.
The Archive provides convenient access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, with Academic City, Silicon Oasis, Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport all within practical driving distance.
The Archive is located in Dubai Land Residence Complex, with direct access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and convenient connections to Al Ain Road and Emirates Road. Dubai Academic City, Dubai Outlet Mall and Silicon Central Mall are approximately five minutes away, while IMG Worlds of Adventure and Global Village are around ten minutes away. Downtown Dubai, Dubai Design District, Dubai Creek Harbour and Dubai International Airport can be reached in approximately twenty minutes, depending on traffic.
Views will vary considerably by unit and floor. The better apartments should offer open community, park or skyline views, while lower floors and inward-facing units may overlook neighbouring buildings, podium areas or future construction plots. I would prioritise a higher floor with the most protected open outlook available and check the surrounding plot plan carefully before selecting a unit.
The Archive offers fully furnished studios and one, two and three bedroom apartments, with layouts designed around practical modern living and the development’s reading inspired concept. Residences include fitted kitchens, built in shelving and carefully positioned reading lights, with balconies included in the published areas.

Imtiaz Developments is a Dubai based property developer founded in 1993, with a reported portfolio valued at AED 15 billion across more than 50 projects and over 2,000 completed units. The company manages much of the development process internally, including design, construction, joinery, aluminium and glass works, property management and after sales support. This gives Imtiaz greater control over construction quality, finishes and delivery than developers that outsource most of the process. Its portfolio includes residential projects across Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai Islands, Dubailand and other growing communities, with a strong focus on furnished apartments, distinctive interiors and lifestyle led amenities.
