Al Zahraa Multiple Residence by Badih and Kantar Architects
DESIGN NAME:
Al Zahraa
PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Multiple Residence
INSPIRATION:
Divided into two main plots, long strips of narrowly attached residential units create a non-repetitive composition of positive and negative blocks of solid sheets providing privacy and front buffering gardens, thus protecting the houses from being exposed to the main traffic. The client’s main target was to provide small families and expats with their daily needs, from privacy to relaxation and public interaction. A unique introverted landscape, easily accessible from all units.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
One of the main hubs of commerce and vehicular traffic within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Jeddah has lately become a major residential district throughout the kingdom. Al Zahra Development Project has been conceived as a new experience in the heart of the City, at one of the major crossings between King Abdul Aziz and Al Baturji roads, within a large district able to accommodate most urban facilities, ranging from residential and commercial to religious entities and hospitalization centers.
