R.Evolution, a European real estate developer, is scaling its EYWA brand to become a global leader in longevity-led regenerative real estate. Having successfully launched EYWA Tree of Life and EYWA Way of Water in Dubai, alongside projects in Barcelona, the company aims to apply its philosophy across residential, commercial, and future hospitality asset classes internationally.
Evolution of Luxury Real Estate
Igor Karpikov, Chief Commercial Officer at R.Evolution, highlights a shift in the luxury real estate market, where buyers are increasingly prioritising homes that support healthier, longer lives over traditional metrics like architecture and location. This aligns with the rapid growth of the wellness real estate sector, projected to reach $1.8 trillion by 2030.
EYWA, an acronym for Energy, Youthfulness, Wellbeing, and Ancient Knowledge, is founded on the concept of regenerative real estate. This approach views buildings as living ecosystems, integrating thoughtful spatial design, modern technology, natural elements, and ancestral wisdom to enhance daily living and health. The philosophy is inspired by R.Evolution founder Alex Zagrebelny.
Wellbeing Ecosystems and Strategic Collaborations
Recognising that environment and lifestyle account for approximately 50% of factors influencing lifespan, and people spend about 90% of their time indoors, EYWA's developments are designed to significantly contribute to health and wellbeing. For example, the Dubai projects, EYWA Tree of Life and EYWA Way of Water, incorporate advanced features such as MERV 14 air filtration and ionization, specialised living-water systems, EMF-shielded bedrooms, non-toxic natural finishes, and carefully planned acoustics, lighting, and ventilation.
Residents in these Dubai developments also benefit from a Health and Longevity Concierge service, offering personalised support for longevity-focused living. R.Evolution is actively forming strategic collaborations with key players in the wellness and longevity sector, covering programming, nature-focused initiatives, educational programmes, sustainable technologies, and premium lifestyle offerings. These partnerships extend the EYWA experience beyond the physical structures, creating a comprehensive wellbeing ecosystem for residents.
Both EYWA Tree of Life and EYWA Way of Water in Dubai are targeting LEED Platinum, WELL Platinum, and WiredScore Platinum certifications, underscoring their commitment to sustainability and advanced building performance. EYWA Tree of Life has received international acclaim, including being featured by Robb Report among the world’s Top 10 Luxury Wellness Residences and named Best Property in the World 2024 by the International Property Awards.
