Al-Sadu
About the design
Track: Roundabout
The design idea came to consolidate a cultural and historical legacy, as Al-Sadu is a key feature in the cultural face of the Kingdom, and it received high attention that made its definition as a living heritage form several ministries.
Its dimensions and curvy aspects represents the Kingdom's cultural heritage that is parallel in importance and value with its position and economic weight.
The inclusion of Al-Sadu art in the UNESCO's list of cultural heritage is an important physical step in recognizing the cultural connotations of this ancient heritage art.

Aebayah
About the design
Track: Roundabout
The Aebayah roundabout is an embodiment of the progress that the Saudi society is witnessing in light of the 2030 vision under the leadership of King Salman
The quest of the Saudi people towards prosperity and the achievement of the vision was embodied by the horse of King Abdulaziz, that accompanied him on his unification journey of the Kingdom.
Aebayah was famous for being the horse chosen by the founder to unite Najd.
The palm branch is the branching leaves of the palm tree that are pinnate, rough to the touch, and have sharp edges. Its length is usually several meters, and it is used in many industries and symbolizes prosperity and peace.
Therefore, the palm tree was used in an abstract way and the frond stripping was used to express the state of prosperity and peace experienced by Saudi society today, as its veins embody an abstraction of the Saudi desert.

About the design
Track: Public Square
The general site consists of explicit and intertwined geometric shapes that express the journey of the heroes, as the engineering language of the general site reflects all the difficulties and situations they went through during the almost impossible trip.
The journey was embodied in the form of pages that mimic the sequence of the novel, ten sequential pages, with a historical reference, following the founder’s legacy King Abdulaziz Al Saud - may God rest his soul -.
The novel is visually embodied in order to create a visual interaction that stimulates questions in the mind of the viewer and raises them in an interesting way to reach an understanding of the idea, and a deep knowledge of the content.
