DAR was commissioned to deliver a range of design and engineering services as well as supervise the construction of the 38,541sqm, 150 bed hospital in its first phase. Following its completion, the hospital will be staffed by more than 1,000 healthcare professionals from the UK and Saudi Arabia.
The hospital is located along King Abdulaziz Road, a major artery in Jeddah, which is along the path of the Muslims’ annual pilgrimage to Mecca. Taking cues from the ageless quality and vibrant characteristics of Jeddah, the objective was to design a modern medical facility that provides the highest quality care and experience for patients, families, and staff.
