Benoy EMEA head Jamie Webb said: “Our design concept centres around creating an attractive, walkable district and neighbourhood, where people would be able to enjoy a variety of culture and leisure activities. Bringing together cues from contemporary and historic Riyadh, with four key districts reflecting the different experiences of Riyadh.
“It will also align with the newly developed Riyadh Metro System as a part of wider transport-oriented development for the city.”
Benoy has collaborated with its sister wayfinding, landscape architecture, and commercial consultancy firms as part of the project development.
