The
Result
The welcome center was developed as one of several concurrent efforts. An intensive research project helped to define the urban history of Madinah, concurrent with the timeline and the events of the life of the prophet (PBUH). The exhibitions center was developed together with the architecture of the hotel and convention facility. The entire project was developed with an economic feasibility component to help shape the fiscal development incentives for the financial partner. In turn, the exhibits design also helped determine the comprehensive definition of the project design. The design was presented to the key members of the Royal Family who are deeply involved as stakeholders in the future of the city.
