Jacobs (J), in joint venture with AECOM (ACM), has been appointed by New Murabba Development Company to provide design services for the landmark The Mukaab – the iconic centerpiece of Riyadh’s New Murabba development. The project forms part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 program to create a sustainable, connected and human-centered urban future. Designed as one of the world’s largest built structures, the 247-acre Mukaab will anchor a new mixed-used modern downtown development combining residential, hospitality, retail and cultural spaces. Drawing inspiration from Najdi architecture – the traditional style of central Saudi Arabia – and integrating cutting-edge digital and immersive technologies, the development aims to redefine modern urban living and global visitor experiences. Jacobs and AECOM will provide design services for The Mukaab and its surrounding podium areas, including infrastructure, road tunnels, the Mukaab Core, wadi podiums and public realm.
