A not too common but interesting brief nonetheless: the client’s requirement for this project was to create, on one shared site, two corporate head office buildings for two of Saudi Arabia’s top companies. For us, the project immediately became one that needs to be made up of two clear and distinct components that come together to create a greater cohesive whole. An obvious analogy to yin yang. The shape of the buildings with their slanted sides is a modern interpretation of the traditional mud brick towers of Arabia (Byout El Libin) found in Baha, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen for example.
