Al Saud Head Office
Project Overview
- Project Name: Al Saud Head Office
- Location: Sharjah, UAE
- Project Type: Residential Sector Project
Project Brief
The Al Saud Head Office in Sharjah is a refined example of traditional architectural language enhanced through modern lighting design. Developed by Al Saud Real Estate, the building features a richly detailed façade with arched windows, recessed elements, and rhythmic architectural patterns that required a sensitive and precise lighting approach.
The objective was to preserve the traditional identity of the building while introducing a contemporary nighttime presence through carefully controlled illumination.
Scope of Work
- Complete lighting design
- Lighting fixture supply
- Exterior façade lighting installation
- Interior lighting installation
- On site aiming, testing, and commissioning
Lighting Design & Approach
The lighting strategy focused on architectural enhancement rather than visual dominance. Warm-toned uplights were used to emphasize the building’s vertical proportions, while soft accent lighting highlighted arches, recesses, and decorative elements without overpowering the façade.
Careful attention was given to:
- Beam control to avoid glare and light spill
- Uniform illumination across façade surfaces
- Balanced contrast between highlighted elements and shadowed areas
The result is a façade that feels elegant, calm, and architecturally respectful, while still achieving strong visual presence at night.
Installation & Execution
- Precise fixture positioning aligned with architectural features
- Clean integration of lighting elements within the façade
- Concealed cabling and protected driver placement
- Accurate aiming and nighttime calibration to achieve uniform output
Result
The completed lighting transforms the Al Saud Head Office into a distinct nighttime landmark, enhancing its architectural character while maintaining a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The façade lighting adds depth and refinement, reinforcing the building’s identity without compromising its traditional design language.
