Arada Central Business District - First Phase Design Development

Spread over 2.2 square kilometres (1.4 miles), Aljada is one of Arada¡¯s three master-planned developments in the Emirate of Sharjah. Celebrated London-based Zaha Hadid Architects designed the central hub of Aljada that includes numerous outdoor environments. The development features retail, commercial, and office buildings, all set within a technology-driven, walkable green urban master plan. Arada engaged us to help deliver the commercial district.

We developed concept designs through to tender drawings and construction documents for the first phase of Arada Central Business District. This consists of eight distinct office buildings of varying heights and external aesthetics, positioned on a central podium. The overall development includes nearly 86,000 square metres (926,000 square feet) of commercial office space and 8,000 square metres (86,000 square feet) of retail, parking, and support-function area. It includes basements, ground, and upper-parking levels, and selected buildings featuring roof gardens.

With retail and commercial offices developed in a way that will allow tenants to personalize or brand their own spaces, notably, Arada is the first occupant in this phase¡ªwhich will house its new headquarters.
