La expresión arquitectónica la propuesta, se inspira en el desierto y el paisaje de montaña que lo rodea. Este concepto prevé una variedad infinita de sombreados naturales, espacios íntimos y protegidos, en torno a la cual, los múltiples usos relacionados con el desarrollo son tejidos. El paisaje arquitectónico ondulado es resuelto con una dramática torre hito, marcado la plaza principal de entrada. Esta torre de 200 m de altura, será el escenario para un hotel de más de 5 estrellas, que a su vez ofrecerá vistas panorámicas a través del emirato, hacia el golfo y más allá de las montañas.

This concept provides for an infinite variety of naturally shaded, intimate and protected spaces, around which the multiple uses associated with the development are woven. The undulating architectural landscape is resolved in a dramatic landmark tower marking the main gateway plaza. This 200 m high tower will be the setting for a 5 star plus hotel affording panoramic views across the emirate, to the gulf and mountains beyond.
