Project 2/5-Starhotel

This project presents the design of a five-star hotel located in Al Hada, Taif, a region known for its elevated terrain, cool climate, and scenic mountain views The hotel spans 45,000 square meters and includes 250 luxury rooms, along with a range of high-end services and facilities designed to deliver an exceptional guest experience. The architectural concept is inspired by the Yshaped form, chosen for its ability to combine visual impact with functional efficiency This unique geometry enhances natural lighting and cross ventilation, improves views from all rooms, and creates a dynamic spatial layout that connects indoor spaces with outdoor terraces and surrounding landscapes. The central spine of the structure allows for clear zoning, separating public, semi-public, and private areas for guests and staff. In terms of sustainability, the design adopts a passive approach, utilizing the site's orientation and topography to reduce energy loads. Locally-sourced materials, natural shading, and energy-efficient systems are incorporated to reduce the project's environmental footprint without compromising luxury.

The hotel includes key amenities such as fine dining restaurants, a wellness and spa center, conference facilities, and outdoor recreational areas—all woven into the architectural language in a way that respects both the natural setting and the cultural identity of the region. The project aims to become a hospitality landmark that not only serves its visitors but also contributes to the ongoing growth of cultural tourism and economic development in Taif under Saudi Vision 2030.

Project3/GeneralHospital

Projectspecifics: AHealingLandmark

Location Taif,Saudiarabia

The Al Hawiyah Hospital project is proposed by the Directorate of Health Affairs in Taif Governorate to serve the growing healthcare needs of residents in the northern region of the city. With a planned capacity of 300 beds, the hospital is envisioned as a regional medical hub that delivers high-quality, accessible care to the local population.

The architectural concept, titled “Cradle to Cure,” reflects a holistic approach to healthcare supporting patients throughout all stages of life, from birth to advanced medical treatment. The hospital's design is based on a plus-sign (+) form, symbolizing the intersection of preventive and curative care, and creating a clear, intuitive layout that separates medical zones while ensuring efficient circulation.

The elongated central spine of the building emphasizes the hospital’s wide range of services, while also functioning as the main organizational axis for departments, patient flow, and staff access. Natural light, clear wayfinding, and human-centered design principles were prioritized to enhance both patient well-being and operational performance

Set in a strategic location in Al Hawiyah, the hospital aims to be not only a place of healing but also a civic anchor that reinforces the health infrastructure and community support system in Taif. Area:

Project 4/PrivateVilla

A Saudi family consisting of parents and three sons with their families seeks a private residence that accommodates all members while respecting both individual privacy and collective living needs. The aim is to create a comfortable, elegant, and distinctive environment that supports modern living while preserving cultural and social values.

The project site is a 2,025 sqm plot located in Taif City, offering exceptional views of the surrounding mountains and a nearby public garden. The design vision integrates local architectural identity with sustainable and smart home principles, ensuring a balance between tradition and innovation.

The house is envisioned as a multi-family residential complex, combining shared spaces that foster connection with private zones tailored to each family unit, all within a context-sensitive and environmentally responsive design approach.

Design Concept :

The building was designed in a way that provides privacy in accordance with the customs and traditions of Saudi Arabia, and the building was designed in terms of the facade in a modern style mixed with a traditional one.

Project5/Educationalcomplex

Area: 8,000m2

Projectspecifics: ACampusforFutureMinds

Location Taif,Saudiarabia

This project proposes the design of a modern educational complex located in the City of Roses – Taif, serving the AlMadinah section Planned to accommodate intermediate and secondary school levels, the complex is designed to serve a population of 10,000 to 20,000 people, with a total site area of 8,000 square meters.

The architectural layout adopts an Lshaped building form, offering a smart and efficient spatial solution. This configuration provides two perpendicular wings that clearly organize the academic and administrative functions while optimizing natural light and ventilation across all learning spaces. The L-shape also defines an internal courtyard, creating a secure and interactive outdoor zone for students.

The design prioritizes clarity, circulation efficiency, and functional zoning, ensuring a user-friendly environment for both students and faculty. Facilities include classrooms, science labs, libraries, sports areas, and common spaces each planned to support educational excellence and adaptability to evolving teaching methods. Positioned within a key urban district, the school is envisioned as a communityfocused learning environment that fosters knowledge, growth, and future readiness in a setting that reflects the identity and culture of Taif.
