Tissoli Luxury Developers and Pininfarina Announce the Launch of Palazzo Tissoli on Al Marjan Island, Valued at AED 1.2 Billion
The Development Marks Pininfarina’s Architectural Debut in Ras Al Khaimah
Dubai, UAE – Oct 2025 – Tissoli, a real estate and investment collective dedicated to crafting world-class spaces, has officially launched their much-awaited, flagship project – Palazzo Tissoli. A signature development designed and branded by the iconic Italian design house Pininfarina, the project valued at AED 1.2 billion, is set to rise on Al Marjan Island, marking Pininfarina’s first architectural venture in Ras Al Khaimah. This once again raises the bar in the evolution of branded luxury living in the UAE.

This residential landmark represents more than architecture and promises to be an amalgamation of Italian heritage and Arabian Gulf living. Positioned along Al Marjan Island’s most coveted stretch, Palazzo Tissoli will house meticulously furnished studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, including duplex corner units that enjoy sweeping views of the coastline. With studio residences starting from AED 1.1 million, the development promises to bring Pininfarina-crafted luxury to discerning homeowners.

Pininfarina’s involvement brings 95 years of design philosophy to Ras Al Khaimah’s shores; their first architectural project in the emirate draws direct inspiration from the natural mosaic of dunes, mangroves and sea waves framed by the angular drama of the Hajar Mountains. With over 1,950 projects spanning continents and categories, Pininfarina’s reputation rests on a singular principle: design must perform as beautifully as it appears.
