What Is The Wadi?

A community drawn from the land rather than placed upon it.

The Wadi is conceived around the natural logic of the Arabian wadi โ€” pathways move like water after rainfall, buildings rise with the character of canyon walls and landscaped spaces gather community life around a central valley.

Set along Yas Canal in Abu Dhabi, the community brings together residences, gardens, waterways, marina activity and contemporary amenities within a distinctive nature-led environment.
