Ankara, May 18, 2026 – The world-renowned luxury lifestyle brand ELIE SAAB and Doğan Group, one of Turkey’s leading real estate developers, have officially unveiled the Ankara Residences by ELIE SAAB project.

Strategic Location and Architectural Excellence
The project is strategically located close to the city center and surrounded by lush greenery, reflecting Ankara’s ongoing urban development and economic dynamism. It aims to meet the rising demand for high-quality housing in the capital by offering a balanced lifestyle that combines accessibility with natural tranquility.
The development features two distinct towers characterized by their fluid and sculptural architectural language.

Vertical brass details and a bright color palette provide an elegant aesthetic that harmonizes with the surrounding landscape.
Exclusive Residences and Unparalleled Living Experience
Comprising a total of 198 exclusive residences, the project includes 84 units in Block A and 114 in Block B. The residences range from approximately 126 square meters to 521 square meters, offering a variety of options including duplex apartments and a unique penthouse. Each living space is designed with expansive volumes, fluid layouts, and strong connections to natural light and views, ensuring a contemporary and privileged living experience.

As the capital continues its dynamic and forward-looking development, offering a refined residential concept that reflects the values of the ELIE SAAB lifestyle aligns perfectly with our vision.”
Interiors Reflecting ELIE SAAB’s Creative Vision
The interior designs are shaped by ELIE SAAB’s creative vision, with spatial simplicity, balanced proportions, and a sense of continuity forming the core character of the living spaces. Each area is designed to balance openness and privacy, placing natural light and material usage at the heart of the experience. Interiors created with travertine, bronze-toned metal surfaces, soft sand tones, and sculptural forms offer a holistic, functional, and timeless design language.
