Hello! India|OCT 2016

Darshan and Neha Hiranandani

Nestled amongst the clouds and high above the sparkling Dubai Marina, Darshan and Neha Hiranandani’s latest creation is their superlative penthouse at 23 Marina. With gargantuan views of a sparkling Dubai, the glamourously appointed residence stands apart from all of the other desirable homes in the city. Filled with a welcoming warmth that reflects the couple’s personal ethos, the rooftop sanctuary is a dual host – for intimate gatherings as well as ultra-chic soirées for Dubai’s swishiest set. As Managing Director of the Hiranandani Group of Companies, Darshan oversees a host of globally prestigious projects, which include H-Energy’s floating LNG terminal on the west coast of India (a first in India). His elegantly chic and gifted partner, Neha, is equipped with a BA (Magna Cum Laude) from Wellesley College and a Master’s from Harvard University and today extends her pen to various issues from education to parenting. Together, Darshan and Neha exemplify the pinnacle of Indian origin couples who are leaving their unique mark across the globe through their professional and personal endeavours.

Thank you for welcoming HELLO! into your beautiful home…

Darshan Hiranandani: “This house has been a work of passion that took over seven years to complete. We assembled an international team of architects and interior designers that worked virtually round the clock and tirelessly on every detail. The aesthetic is contemporary and fresh – very ‘new Dubai,’ which combines the primness of Mayfair with the playfulness of the beach.”
