“Do” You Hear That? One Development & Amr Diab’s Billboard Just Dropped the Beat on Dubai's Skyline
One Development is getting loud in Dubai with its latest teaser OOH campaign in Dubai for Do Boutique Hotels & Residences, their new luxury venture under the brand line "Live The Beat." Today, Egyptian pop icon Amr Diab ventures overseas, with an AI-powered, music- themed hospitality concept taking to the streets of Dubai, indicating expansion and an upscale shift in tone.
This rhythm-driven luxury stays is curated by artificial intelligence where “Do” positions itself at the intersection of music, tech, and modern travel culture, promising guests a lifestyle as much as a location. Backed by One Development, this project carries weight both in ambition and placement.
The imagery is striking in its bareness. A giant digital hoarding shows a bird's-eye view of a single speedboat slicing into dense blue waters, creating soundwave-like ripples that quietly pay homage to the "beat" metaphor. The campaign copy is spare: Do. Boutique Hotels & Residences. Beneath it, LIVE THE BEAT pulses in large, centered type, joined by the teaser: COMING SOON – DUBAI and credit to ONE Development and Amr Diab. His autograph, scrawled like a tagging graffiti artist at the bottom, is the final line: familiar, hip, and informally carrying cultural capital. The palette depends on shades of blue, dancing on the line between tranquility and dynamism—perhaps a nod to the brand's double promise of escape and thrill. It's held back but tantalizing, designed to generate interest without giving away too much.
Strategically placed on a high-impact, full-building screen in one of Dubai’s upscale districts, the location speaks volumes. It’s not just a billboard—it’s a statement. The screen’s size and positioning make it impossible to ignore for anyone cruising through the area, especially those accustomed to the luxury real estate language that fills Dubai’s cityscape.
The campaign struck Dubai in the fourth week of April on digital screens and hoarding.
