The Opus Inauguration Event

<p>&nbsp;</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">As an artist, a painter Dame Zaha Hadid born in Baghdad, began searching her interests in art and painting at a young age that eventually led to one of most influential architectural careers. Through influences in Russian Constructivism and artists such as Kazimir Malevich, she began studying in 1972 at the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_Association_School_of_Architecture">Architectural Association School of Architecture</a> in London under Rem Koolhaas who later described her as "a planet in her own orbit.” Other professors noted she was the inventor of 89 degrees, nothing ever 90 degrees. A sculptor of the curve was one observation because of the bold and brave curvilinear forms that make up her work.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">Hadid reflects on her approach. “One result of my interest in Malevich was my decision to employ painting as a design tool. I found the traditional system of architectural drawing to be limiting and was searching for a new means of representation. Studying Malevich allowed me to develop abstraction as an investigative principle.”</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">In 1988 she became internationally recognized when chosen to exhibit her works, drawings and paintings in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deconstructivism#1988_MoMA_Exhibition">"Deconstructivism in Architecture"</a> at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. Curated by Philip Johnson and Mark Wigley. She was one of seven who were invited to exhibit in the show among such names as Coop Himmelblau, Peter Eisenman, Frank Gehry, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind, and Bernard Tschumi.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">Through the 90’s her career and influence flourished as the world began to see her works appear. The Vitra Fire Station in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weil_am_Rhein">Weil am Rhein</a>, Germany (91-93), <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergisel_Ski_Jump">Bergisel Ski Jump</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innsbruck">Innsbruck</a>, Austria (99–2002) and the Extension of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordrupgaard">Ordrupgaard</a> Museum, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen">Copenhagen</a>, Denmark (2001–2005). In the period from 2005 she began a collaborative relationship with OMNIYAT and founder Mahdi Amjad for what was to become Hadid’s first work in the UAE.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">The Opus building in the Burj Khalifa area in central Dubai was born. The project is rare in many forms because the Opus was one of the last creations by Hadid. The architect designed absolutely every detail from exterior to interior, materials and furniture all with the brave flowing forms that act as a chorus to the eyes, a sense of elevated presence when one enters. The exterior form of the Opus can be hailed an artistic landmark in architecture.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">“I was fortunate enough to have worked for over ten years with my dear friend and design mentor Dame Zaha Hadid on the creation of our flagship Opus Building in the heart of Dubai”, Amjad reflects.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">In light of this tremendous collaboration Mahdi Amjad established the Zaha Hadid/Omniyat Fellowship Fund at the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) to nurture talent in the Arab world. The Harvard fund assists qualifying students from the UAE and Middle East region to pursue the same creative and artistic journeys as Dame Zaha Hadid.</p>

Zaha Hadid Extraordinaire

<p class="story-text-normal">Instead of joining his family’s jewellery business, Mahdi Amjad forged his own career, first in technology and then real estate. Combining the two, Amjad now leads two groups as founder and executive chairman—Almasa Holdings, which focuses on technology distribution, software and e-Commerce—and Omniyat, a real-estate group specializing in bespoke residential partnerships with elite hotel groups. Amjad has re-defined the standard of luxury across Dubai. Omniyat’s portfolio, including the brand’s flagship properties—One at Palm Jumeirah, Dorchester Collection, Dubai; The Residences, Dorchester Collection, Dubai; and The Opus—is currently valued at over $5 billion.</p>



<div class="story-text-normal">How did you first get interested in the real estate industry? What are some of the signatures of the projects you choose?</div>



<p class="story-text-normal">Dubai’s leadership has always been an inspiration for me, and the city’s glittering skyline reflects the leadership’s vision for impressive and iconic architectural development; the city is a globally renowned place of innovations and world firsts. I wanted to be part of this phenomenon.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">15 years ago, I saw a lot of developments that focused on mass production, so I saw an opportunity to provide a much more personalized, bespoke and detail-orientated proposition. I believed there was a gap in the luxury real estate segment, which propelled me to enter the industry.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">The projects that fall under the remit of OMNIYAT are all unique, I would say that this in itself is a signature style of what we stand for. No project under our name is a repetition, and we are committed to delivering only the best in building solutions, luxury residential and renowned hospitality for our residents.</p>



<p class="story-text-normal">At OMNIYAT we are equipped with a development philosophy to create best-in-class projects. We work with leading architects, designers, contractors and consultants with the aim to re-define the standard of luxury across the region. Our flagship properties are an embodiment of this approach, including One at Palm Jumeirah and The Residences both managed by Dorchester Collection and The Opus by OMNIYAT.</p>
