840-SUNAA RESIDENCE

Sunaa Residence interprets the building as a fluid ensemble of sculpted volumes, inspired by the natural forms of the desert landscape and by elements of North African and Middle Eastern tradition, such as the curved blade of the Berber sword and wind-shaped sand dunes. The architecture takes on a soft, continuous character, with rounded building masses rising vertically and engaging in dialogue with one another through a unified podium.

The project is composed of several mid-rise towers resting on a commercial podium that acts as an element of urban and functional connection. The podium defines the urban frontage and accommodates public and commercial functions, while the upper volumes house hotel, residential, and branded residence uses, ensuring a clear separation of flows and functions. The volumetric composition allows for controlled solar exposure, enhances views, and creates intermediate spaces protected from the climate.

From an architectural standpoint, Sunaa Residence adopts an elegant and iconic yet non-aggressive image, in which the building envelope becomes a climatic device. The façades are conceived as continuous, filtering surfaces capable of modulating light and shadow, reducing direct solar radiation, and improving indoor comfort. The overall composition emerges as a recognizable urban landmark, while remaining well integrated into its context through a dynamic and articulated volumetric design.
