Challenge
The historic district is rich in symbols but needs clear transitions, shade and places to pause so the visit reads as one journey rather than disconnected points.
Had Albalad
A sequence of plazas and gateways reconnects Al-Balad’s memory with daily pedestrian life, from Almalikah to Albunt and the food court.
Idea
The route was designed as chapters: a gateway announces arrival, plazas shift character, and architectural frames borrow the proportions of rawasheen and openings without literal imitation.
Outcome
A walkable civic journey connecting plazas, activities and façades, giving every stop a distinctive image inside one story about historic Jeddah.
