"Where Architecture Embraces the Sea: A Symphony of Wind and Waves"
This proposed cultural, pedestrian-friendly, man-made peninsula masterfully integrates residential spaces, commercial hotels, and a central mosque, all designed with traditional urban and architectural Hejazi elements. The design achieves an impressive 70% view of the sea, offering residents and visitors breathtaking coastal vistas. The residential areas are oriented and designed to receive the desirable wind, enhancing comfort and livability. Additionally, the pedestrian alleys are meticulously oriented to harness the natural desired wind, ensuring a comfortable and refreshing ambiance throughout the development. This thoughtful design creates an environment that is both culturally rich and visually stunning.
