​
The residential complex is located where the residential section of the city reaches its business–administrative section to provide social interactions and life quality for different family types.
We defined the project's structure into three separate areas: A commercial center, Plaza, and residential blocks. Connection bridges were used To design the network of intersections and create visual connections between the building blocks and semi-open spaces.
​I participated in Concept design, providing landscape management and presentation of this project. Understanding the criteria affecting the architecture in the US and mirroring them in the design as middle eastern architects were the main challenges for the team. Besides, meeting the deadline within a week with our obsession with the design diagrams and quality made the project a rewarding experience.
