An office building
that shades its street.
A three-storey office building on a street corner in AlUla. Its two office floors open to the street through full-height glazing, and a dark bronze pergola wraps the corner at first-floor level, shading the ground-floor windows, the entrance steps and the pavement. A white lattice parapet crowns the cream-rendered walls, and on the roof a slatted pergola shelters a terrace for the people who work there.
The building design — the corner plan, the office floors, the facades with their full-height glazing, the bronze pergola canopy, the lattice parapet and the roof terrace — the visualisations, the technical drawings and the BOQ (bills of quantities) were prepared by Mohamed Bider for AMSY Group.

The building.
Around the corner: the canopy runs along both street fronts, the office floors are glazed from floor to ceiling, and the lattice parapet ties the facades together under the roof pergola.
The entrance.
The entrance sits on the corner under the canopy: marble cheeks and steps with a ramp, a glass door below the sign panel, and perforated steel planters either side.
The roof terrace.
From above: a dining terrace under the slatted pergola, behind the lattice parapet, with the office floors below and the canopy wrapping the corner at street level.
