| Inspiration King Salman Park – Circular Unity & Social Centrality
Riyadh’s rapid transformation has created a new design language rooted in nature, movement, and community. This project draws from the city’s most influential megaprojects, each representing a defining layer of Riyadh’s evolving urban identity. By merging these inspirations, the design becomes a micro-expression of the city’s grand vision.
As one of the world’s largest urban parks, King Salman Park symbolizes the future of social life in Riyadh a place where people gather, connect, and experience culture. Its iconic circular geometry inspires the project’s central form, creating a social anchor at the heart of the site. This reference reinforces community presence and provides a clear, welcoming focal point for visitors.
Sports Boulevard – Motion, Activity & Elevated Pathways Sports Boulevard introduces a new dimension of active mobility in Riyadh. Its elevated bridges and dynamic lines shape a distinctive architectural identity centered around movement and health. This project adopts that same energy by integrating elevated loops and multi-level paths that encourage exploration, activity, and continuous motion.
Wadi Hanifa natural water and landscape element
King Salman Park
circular green heart and urban social center
Sports Boulevard
elevated pathways and movement experience
Wadi Hanifa – Natural Flow & Ecological Rhythm Together, these three inspirations natural flow, social unity, and dynamic movement come together to form a design that embodies Riyadh’s urban pulse. The result is a neighborhood-scale destination rooted in the spirit of the city while offering a forward-looking public experience for local communities.
Wadi Hanifa represents Riyadh’s most significant natural landmark a continuous landscape shaped by water, movement, and time. Its organic curves, soft edges, and ecological calm form the foundation of the project’s spatial language. The elevated paths and fluid circulation patterns reinterpret the wadi’s natural flow, allowing users to move through the site as if following a living landscape.

| Concept
Step 01 — Understanding the Site Footprint
Step 03 — Introducing Organic Nodes Inspired by Riyadh’s Natural Forms
The process begins by identifying the available plot within the dense residential fabric. The site is defined as a long, rectangular stretch of land embedded between housing blocks, with strong street edges on all sides. This step establishes the project’s scale, proportions, and its direct relationship to the surrounding neighborhood. It highlights the opportunity to introduce a new public anchor in a tightly packed urban grid.
Circular and organic shapes are overlaid onto the two divided zones, referencing the natural geometries found in Wadi Hanifa and the social circularity of King Salman Park. These forms serve as the foundational geometry for gathering areas, activity hubs, resting pockets, and open landscapes. This step shifts the project away from the rigid grid and introduces softness, flow, and spatial variation.
Step 05 — Final Design Integration: Landscape, Water, and Elevated Structures The final step merges all elements into a complete design: elevated walkways, organic platforms, water features, landscape zones, and community spaces. The loops float above reflective water bodies and shaded greenery, creating an immersive multi-level environment. This coherent integration transforms the linear site into a vibrant neighborhood destination that embodies Riyadh’s pulse — combining nature, motion, and social connectivity in one unified experience.
Step 02 — Dividing the Site to Create Program Opportunities The large linear plot is divided into two primary zones. This division creates flexibility for layered programming, circulation, and different landscape characters. The separation also introduces a pedestrian corridor that breaks the rigid block structure and enhances walkability through the neighborhood. This move sets the stage for creating distinct functional areas while maintaining strong connectivity.
Step 04 — Connecting Nodes with a Continuous Movement Path A fluid, looping pathway is introduced to weave the circular nodes together into a cohesive experience. Inspired by the elevated lines of the Sports Boulevard, this movement system creates a dynamic, multi-level journey through the site. It organizes circulation, shapes user flow, and establishes the iconic identity of the project. The pathway becomes the spine of the entire concept.

PHASE OF NOTHINGNESS Riyadh Sport Boulevard
| Portfolio
| 2026
|Plan
"Phase of Nothingness" is a minimalist, conceptual sculpture that challenges the viewer's perception of presence, materiality, and absence. The artwork consists of a large natural stone that appears to levitate, made possible by a mirror-finished stainless-steel column. The high-reflectivity of the column makes it blend seamlessly with its surroundings, creating the illusion that the heavy stone floats unsupported in mid-air. This visual illusion not only defies gravity and logic but also evokes a contemplative experience by eliminating the visible support structure. The work symbolizes "nothingness"—a space where the boundary between object and void dissolves. It prompts viewers to reflect on dualities such as presence versus absence, mass versus void, and the integration of nature with technology. Designed to be both thought-provoking and visually striking, the sculpture engages its audience through stillness, suspension, and the philosophical interplay between the seen and the unseen.

| DESIGN STORY
Our project draws inspiration from the historical significance of fort AL MUAATHAM, which was established nearly 500 years ago and was a place to rest for the Pilgrims and Umrah performers. In reimagining the fort's rectangular court layout, we have integrated elements of the traditional Fort (Riwaq, Central courtyard) within a contemporary fluid hunting camp concept.Reflecting on the fort's historical significance, our design embodies a sanctuary for hunters, offering a comfortable oasis in the Tabuk desert. The layout resonates with the fort's historical design, embracing the area's heritage while catering to the needs of modern-day hunters.

| Portfolio | DESIGN STORY
Nestled in the Tabuk Desert near Al Muaatham Fort, our hunting camp design draws inspiration from three compelling narratives, seamlessly weaving them into a harmonious whole.The first tale reflects the ancient Nabatean Stone Age architecture, with fluid, interconnected structures mimicking desert dunes. The second narrative pays homage to the historical significance of Al Muaatham Fort, incorporating elements of its rectangular court layout and traditional Riwaq architecture. This contemporary fluid hunting camp serves as a modern oasis, preserving the fort's legacy while offering comfort to hunters in the vast Tabuk desert. The third story unfolds in the captivating Tabuk Desert, where the Al Muaatham hunting lodge integrates seamlessly with nature. Inspired by the undulating curves of dune sands, the design embraces organic shapes, blurring the lines between architecture and the desert landscape.

Two villa In Riyadh Client : Freelancer This project involved the architectural design of a twin villa facade that reflects a refined contemporary aesthetic while maintaining privacy, functionality, and harmony with the surrounding urban landscape. The concept is built around clean geometric forms and a minimal material palette that emphasizes simplicity and elegance.The facade is composed of two distinct yet unified volumes, featuring a mix of smooth white plaster, natural stone cladding, and timber accents. The design integrates full-height wooden louvers, recessed glazing, and patterned perforated blocks to ensure natural light control and ventilation while enhancing visual interest. A series of horizontal and vertical lines organize the elevation, while
warm textures and planted greenery soften the rigid structure.Integrated planters along the balcony edges and above the main entrances introduce a natural layer to the facade, blending modern architecture with subtle biophilic elements. Black metal gates and dark shading systems provide a secure and private enclosure at ground level without disrupting the overall composition.
