The design responds to Saudi Arabia’s climate by making comfort, context and climate key drivers of the architecture. A double-layered façade provides shade, reduces solar heat gain and encourages natural air movement. Drawing from regional principles of shading and screening, the envelope is reinterpreted through a contemporary language, creating depth, rhythm and identity. Locally sourced materials further root the building in its context. Together, these strategies create an architecture that is climate-responsive, contemporary and grounded in place.
