Project overview
Townhouse-inspired privacy in an apartment setting
Tessera is Al Ghurair Development’s townhouse-inspired apartment project in Dubai South, designed by Aires Mateus. The home mix includes two-bedroom apartments, two-bedroom duplexes and three-bedroom residences.
Tessera’s design is worth reading through its entrances and terraces. Al Ghurair describes homes with separated arrivals, outdoor space and an additional flexible room. Buyers can compare whether that extra room works better as a study, a playroom or another permitted use within the actual plan.
The duplex is a different proposition from the single-level apartments. A staircase can separate household activities, but it also affects circulation and the way furniture moves through the home. The published duplex area should therefore be compared with the apartment layouts as a distinct format rather than simply a slightly larger two-bedroom home.
The shared spaces extend from fitness and social uses to rooftop swimming. A household can assess these around its ordinary routine: working from home, exercising, hosting visitors or accompanying younger children. The most relevant question is which facilities will be used regularly and how they relate to the selected residence.
Designed by Aires Mateus

Sheraz Properties buyer perspective
Who It May Suit & What to Check
For families comparing flexible apartment layouts
The extra room, terrace and choice of single-level or duplex living make Tessera a useful layout comparison for households whose needs may change.
Plan for the completion balance
The published structure defers 65% to handover. Compare that final commitment with the household’s expected funding arrangements rather than focusing only on the smaller booking amount.
The buyer perspective is editorial analysis. It is separate from the developer’s published project specifications.
