What is a Design district?

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.It was established in 2013. It is a TECOM Group freezone business park consisting of three phases, the first of which is 11 building offices, completed in 2016.

The district hosts some regional and international brands and design houses such as Adidas, Nike, and Foster + Partners. It comprises office spaces, retail boutiques, workshops, hotels, residential areas, and restaurants and cafes.

The district allows professionals and freelancers who do not hold UAE citizenship to obtain a license from the free zone and authorize them to have sole ownership of their projects. Dubai Design District also holds the Dubai Design Week in November.

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. Amina Al Rustimani was the CEO of the development company behind d3.

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 which are security services, traffic services, community services, and certificates services.
