Laheq Island is the first residential-led development at The Red Sea in Saudi Arabia. The project sensitively transforms the 400-hectare Laheq Island into a luxury green community. The design is conceptualised as a ‘Forever Garden’ in reference to the plant life and vivid greenery that is woven through the masterplan. The design protects the island’s perimeter and preserves the natural habitats at its edges by creating new internal waterways and beaches. At its centre, an 800-metre diameter structure known as ‘The Ring’ encircles a spectacular lagoon and its pristine white sand beaches.

There are more than 740 new residences on the island, which are supported by state-of-the-art amenities, including a 115-berth marina, beach club, sailing and watersports schools, a racket club, fitness centre, and an 18-hole golf course and a clubhouse. ‘The Ring’ contains luxury apartments, two hotels, and a vibrant souk. Its lightweight timber structure is elevated above the water and incorporates greenery, pergolas, and shaded canopies to enhance wellbeing. Other residential communities are located to the south, centre, and north of the masterplan, featuring large luxury villas at the water’s edge.

A shared architectural language of layered geometric timber frames unifies the various elements of the scheme.
