Project Brief

Bayat Plaza is a mixed-use residential development located at a prominent intersection of Madinah Road and King Abdullah Road. Envisioned as a contemporary urban gateway, the project responds sensitively to its historic surroundings. ​

The task was to integrate residential living, retail activity, and everyday urban life within a refined and sustainable architectural framework.​

The project unfolds as two elliptical towers — one of apartments, the other of duplex residences— shaped to ease their presence within the city. Gently rotated toward one another, they form a visual dialogue that frames views, defines arrival, and marks a gateway moment. Reflective glass facades echo the surrounding cityscape, allowing the architecture to blend rather than compete, while vertical louvers temper light, privacy, and comfort. At ground level, chamfered podium edges animate a retail boulevard, with layered amenities above, creating a balanced urban environment where daily life and sustainability meet.​

Project Info

Elliptical forms and reflective glass mirror the city, as gently rotated towers and vertical louvres shape light, movement, and environmental balance.​

Design Development

Bayat Plaza is a contextual and climate-responsive composition, where elliptical forms, reflection, and facade modulation shape a dynamic dialogue between architecture, arrival, and the city.​

Located at the intersection of Madinah and King Abdullah Roads, the site’s high visibility allows the project to stand as a clear urban landmark.​

“By letting the architecture respond to its surroundings—through form, rotation, and light—we created a building that doesn’t just sit in its context, but actively engages with it, balancing elegance, sustainability, and adaptable living.”​ ​
