Airport Master Plan

Partnering with B+H architects, we helped create a bold, nature-inspired airport master plan in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The landscape vision for the project focused on circularity by building “patches” of unique experiences that are self-sustaining but share with other patches their excess food, energy and wastes that are repurposed to create a circular economy. The overall purpose of our design was to re-green the desert and to give life back to the origins of the name Riyadh - Arabic: الرياض‎, romanized: 'ar-Riyāḍ, lit.: 'The Gardens.  

We focused on including design principles of harmony, new urbanism, traveller focus, inclusive place-making, circularity, inspiration, while celebrating the heritage and high-quality of public realms.
