    North of Jeddah, the desert does not end gradually. It arrives with a specific quality of silence and a specific quality of light — flat, open, and far enough from the city that the air carries nothing of it. The…

  • Jadwa Al-Kahlil Tower

    Hijazi architecture has been characterized since ancient times by many important data such as reconfiguring the culture of Rawashin in a new and modern way and making this formation a sign of Hijazi linked to the Hijazi architectural culture.

    Commercial plazas often rely on generic shading structures that fail to activate the public realm. The Hadia Pavilion at Jameel Square rejects the concept of the “silent umbrella,” introducing a dynamic, parametric canopy designed to stimulate social interaction and establish…

  • Al Gaza Markets

    The Al Gaza district historically functioned as the primary northern commercial vein feeding the Grand Mosque in Makkah. The erasure of its traditional, centuries-old urban fabric presented a critical planning dilemma: how to replace an organic, historic market without resorting…

  • Mushroom Whale Port

    When looking at the traditional architectural shaps, forms, and blocks; you will find that the components of the urban fabric in Italy are significantly united. This indicates the belonging to the Italian unity and the interdependence between people, place, and urban prosperity.
