My sketches
Results
In my graduation project, I explored urban design strategies that respond to Riyadh’s vertical expansion. I developed a mixed-use cultural district that integrates low-rise buildings with a high-rise tower through a cohesive massing approach. The design focuses on creating engaging public spaces, enhancing walkability, and ensuring a seamless visual and functional connection between the tower and the surrounding urban fabric.
