Under this partnership, Decipher Egypt will provide analytical consulting, strategic planning, and leasing recommendations for NOIR’s commercial and administrative units. The company will also offer expert design solutions to ensure optimal space utilization and elevate the project’s commercial appeal to global standards.
As part of the collaboration, Decipher Egypt will implement an effective strategy to attract top-tier investors and leading retail brands, maximizing investment returns and enhancing the sales and market value of the project’s units.

NOIR is Livingyards’ latest and most significant commercial and administrative development since its launch in 2018, with investments exceeding EGP 2 billion and projected revenues of over EGP 3 billion. The project is one of six distinctive developments currently in progress, and aims to redefine the concept of mixed-use communities in East Cairo by combining modern design, operational efficiency, and long-term investment revenue.
Strategically located in the heart of Fifth Settlement at One-Ninety North, NOIR offers easy access from key roads and landmarks, including Cairo Festival City, Downtown Mall, and is just minutes away from both the Ring Road and the New Administrative Capital. Surrounded by prestigious universities such as AUC, CIC, GUC, and FUE, its location solidifies its status as the “heartbeat” of North 90th Street.
Spanning a land area of approximately 3,137 square meters, NOIR features over 15,000 square meters of leasable space, comprising a ground floor dedicated to retail units and four upper floors for administrative offices.
The project will host an exclusive selection of high-end retail outlets, gourmet restaurants and cafés, bank branches, pharmacies, and car showrooms, all surrounding a central plaza that offers full-view exposure for both shops and offices.
The administrative units at NOIR will be delivered fully finished to latest global standards, with sizes ranging from 40 to 2000 square meters across four floors. Select units feature open terraces with direct views of the central plaza, providing ideal working environments for global brands and companies seeking high-performance office spaces.
Adding to its appeal, NOIR includes a two-level underground parking facility accommodating up to 150 cars, an intelligent building management system, and an eco-friendly central cooling system designed to reduce energy consumption and operating costs. The project is also supported by a robust digital infrastructure provided by a leading global telecom provider, featuring Triple Play services and advanced building management software for smooth and sustainable operations.
Construction at NOIR is progressing rapidly, with 80% of the structure completed, including all concrete work for the first four floors. Finishing works are currently underway, and unit handover is scheduled within’ 18 months, by the end of 2026. Flexible payment plans are available, along with exclusive cash discounts.
NOIR offers a unique identity, with its name inspired by refined French aesthetics and architectural elegance. The project was designed in collaboration with multidisciplinary design firms including YBA and SSE, delivering a seamless blend of strategic location, thoughtful architecture, and premium finishing. It is envisioned as a premier destination for companies and brands seeking to strengthen their presence and competitiveness in the long term.
