The Coastal Development is set to become the defining hub of contemporary arts in the Middle East, playing host to a dynamic programme of exciting events from the global arts and cultural calendar. Built on philanthropy, the immersive programmes will be creative, practical, and academic with a strong link to the Saudi community.
The Coastal Development will feature an arts museum and cultural district dedicated to keeping ancient crafts alive, along with an amphitheatre for live performances. This stretch of coastline will be a gathering place for a community of influencers and connoisseurs, complete with premium spa facilities, yoga, meditation, in addition to an equestrian centre equipped to offer rehabilitation, high-tech stabling, tournament-grade polo facilities, and instructors.
Master Planning & Design Principal of HKS Architects, Kevin Underwood, said: “The developments at Triple Bay and The Coastal Development offer a once-in-a-career opportunity to shape a new tourism destination from the beginning and it’s a privilege to be involved as Master Planners. We’re bringing together the global expertise of our firm, using our knowledge of designing for healthcare, sports, and other uses allied to many years’ experience of working with luxury hotels and resorts to create something innovative and contemporary. Sustainability in all aspects is at the heart of our design, seamlessly integrating landscape and buildings with the stunning mountain and marine landscape of the Red Sea.”
AMAALA’s trio of communities – Triple Bay, Coastal Development, and The Island – will represent three different sets of experiences for visitors. The destination’s development will be rolled out in three key phases, with completion slated ahead of the realisation of Saudi Vision 2030.
