The brief
This brief is for owners of units in Luce, for anyone thinking of buying or selling one on the resale market, and for buyers comparing it with other buildings on Palm Jumeirah.

The Dubai Land Department register, read 14 November 2026, records it as a single building of 38 units and lists the project as finished.
All figures in this table are from the Dubai Land Department register, read 14 November 2026.
The register describes Luce as a residential building of two basements, a ground floor and nine floors above, built with a concrete structure and block walls and finished inside and out. That gives ten storeys above ground. Both basement levels are given over to car parking.
The design architect named for the project is MZ Architects, with Build Point Engineering Consultants as architect of record. Al Ashram was appointed main contractor, and APCC Piling Foundation Contracting carried out the foundation work.
The facade is built largely of glass panels, and the building is oriented towards the sea and the sun on its seafront plot. The interiors are specified in white and earth tones with natural materials.
The unit mix specified for Luce is made up of apartments with two, three or four bedrooms, plus penthouses and duplexes. The register counts 38 units across the one building.
The facilities listed for the project are a Jacuzzi, an infinity pool and a smaller plunge pool, a residents' gym, a garden, a children's play area, recreational facilities and access to the beach. The infinity pool was planned within a landscaped garden on the beachfront, with a separate pool for children.
In depth
Luce is on the Crescent, the long breakwater that encircles the fronds of Palm Jumeirah. The island was built from rock and sand rather than concrete or steel, and the Crescent breakwater runs for some eleven kilometres. The Trunk, the spine of the island, carries apartment buildings, shops, hotels and marinas, with houses and villas along the fronds. Nakheel has carried out beach enhancement works covering 55 kilometres of the island's shoreline, adding 1.5 million m³ of sand.
The building sits among the Crescent's resort hotels. Distances from Luce:
