Rise by Athlon – A Lifestyle in Motion
Rise by Athlon, developed by Aldar, is a community shaped around movement, connection, and vitality. Conceived as an active, people-first environment, the project encourages residents to live with intention—where wellbeing is woven into the rhythm of everyday life. In collaboration with Aldar, RSP crafted the interiors to ensure each space supports both personal wellness and a strong sense of community.
Designed in consultation with leading athletic specialists, the masterplan promotes physical, emotional, and social wellbeing. Trail loops, cycling paths, running tracks, and outdoor training zones are seamlessly integrated into the landscape, making movement a natural part of daily routines.
Project Details
Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Completion: TBC
Services: Interior Design
Owner: Aldar
This is a place where shaded family paths lead to school drop-offs, and where your morning run can flow directly into Al Qudra’s open trails. It is where residents unwind in wellness zones, connect in social fitness hubs, and experience spaces that balance energy with calm—indoors and out.
At its heart, Rise by Athlon is guided by three defining principles:
Connection.
Activity.
Community.
Together, they transform everyday moments into meaningful rituals that support a healthier, more intentional way of living.
Materiality in Motion – The Interior Concept
For Rise by Athlon, the interior design reflects the energy and purpose of the wider masterplan. The spaces are contemporary, elevated, and designed for real life—where movement, comfort, and elegance coexist.
A soft, neutral base creates a calm foundation, while layered contrasts and refined accents introduce depth and visual rhythm. Each space is designed around a different pace of living:
Living and dining areas are open and adaptable, encouraging social interaction and shared moments.
Bedrooms are warm, personal retreats, designed for rest and renewal.
Bathrooms extend the wellness narrative, becoming calm, spa-like sanctuaries within the home.
Every detail expresses a lifestyle in motion—where strength meets softness, and form meets feeling. Sculptural furniture elements add quiet drama, from a modular beige sofa that anchors the living space to black and leather accents that echo the project’s industrial calm.
Designed for Everyday Momentum
Each of the five towers within Rise by Athlon carries its own character, while remaining part of a unified design philosophy:
The Athletics Tower channels energy through bold, performance-inspired spaces.
The Wellness Tower introduces a slower pace with soothing tones and gentle transitions.
The Play and Fly Towers embrace adaptability and vibrancy, inspiring movement and engagement.
The Art Tower celebrates creativity with expressive forms and unexpected design moments.
Across all towers, lobbies, lounges, and shared spaces are designed to feel refined yet approachable—where movement and mindfulness coexist.
A Holistic Amenity Experience
From high-energy training zones to immersive spaces for rest and creativity, every amenity is designed to enhance how residents move, connect, and recover.
The gym captures a raw, performance-driven spirit.
The cinema offers a plush, cocooned escape.
The game room and kids’ play areas translate the active philosophy into spaces of imagination and movement.
The social fitness hub blends wellness with connection.
The recovery studio supports restoration through guided stretching and relaxation.
The music studio and workshop encourage creative expression.
The rhythm room provides a relaxed, expressive gathering space.
Together, these environments form a complete ecosystem—where design, wellbeing, and lifestyle come together in constant motion.
