Our Philosophy

Developing homes not to meet expectations, but to change them

MAKAN is an antidote to the sprawl of fragmented housing communities and the social isolation of high-rise living. It showcases density-smart, community-oriented, modern architecture with a low ecological footprint — designing spaces not only for the flow of people, but integrated systems of ecology and economy that optimize the flow of heat, energy, waste and water.

Density-smart architecture

Desirable living spaces within a socially integrated community — bespoke floor plans large enough for families to thrive, and for neighbours to connect.

High-performance building

Designed and operated to meet the highest standards for energy and water usage, system reliability and occupant comfort — where energy performance more than offsets the capital costs of ownership.

Fostering community

A low-density urban development juxtaposed to natural wonders is not just a commodity — it adds to the fabric of the neighbourhood and enhances liveability.

In the news

The next frontier in real estate development

"My vision is a real estate development that reflects the modern era with 21st century amenities for new homebuyers, whilst offering the social benefits of communal living – a place that encourages neighbours to connect and communicate freely, to share resources and foster a shared sense of community. I called this place 'MAKAN'." — Dr. Kamal Mattar, On The Boulevard, Today Magazine

Net Zero

A building that gives back more than it takes

MAKAN is a net-zero building that generates carbon-free renewable energy to offset the annual carbon emissions of its operations and materials — exceeding regulatory requirements and green building standards with passive home design, solar energy, geothermal and rainwater harvesting.

Solar power

Solar power

Up to 4,000 sq ft of rooftop panels — an 86,400 kWh photovoltaic array, equivalent to the energy consumption of 8 homes. Net metering credits surplus power, battery storage protects against outages, and EV charging is integrated.

Rainwater harvesting

Rainwater harvesting

Rooftop capture, filtration and storage repurposes rain water for toilets and irrigation — conserving 450,000 litres annually. Permeable pavers and preserved green space manage storm water naturally.

Geothermal heating & cooling

Geothermal heating & cooling

Heating and cooling accounts for 39% of all carbon emissions. Super high-efficiency heat pumps with comfortable radiant floor heating save the average homeowner $3,000 per year.

Passive solar design

Passive solar design

Engineered cantilevered sunshades admit natural daylight while limiting summer heat gain. Large windows capture the low winter sun, and thermal-mass floors store warmth by day and release it at night.

Environmental sustainability aligned with value creation: a building that lasts longer, improves the urban streetscape and costs less to maintain.

Smart Living

Every home, fully automated

Savant home automation comes standard: lighting, climate, motorized shades, security and entertainment — controlled from one app, or your voice, anywhere in the world.

  • Motorized solar shades on a schedule or on demand
  • Climate and lighting scenes tuned to your day
  • Whole-home security and remote access
  • EV-ready underground parking with bike storage
