Let me explain
The design, by X Architects, is contemporary Najdi: thick lattice walls with triangular openings that filter the light, shaded courtyards and walkways stepping down to the edge of the wadi, and a stacked minaret. Construction is by a consortium of Al-Majal El-Arabi Group and MAN Enterprise AlSaudia under a SAR 917 million contract. Progress reached 21% in March 2026, and completion is expected in 2028.
