Luca Curci Architects has designed a landmark for the Persian Gulf skyline based on the concept of "Organic Cities". The organic buildings become part of the new megalopolis, merging and mixing residential elements with business divisions, shopping life with wellness areas, cultural places with social life. The aim is to create a common place where people can live, meet, learn, work, socialize and create new intertwined cultures.

The project has been developed starting from a conceptual point, studying the symbols and meanings of each element. The project is organized in 2 groups: “organic buildings” on the earth, and “moons” in the sea. All of them are connected and linked each other with roads, parks, and running streets. The moons in the sea are divided into 3 kinds: the smaller are private residences with a private approach from the sea and from the air. The middle “moons” are hotels that can be reached by the sea, the road and the air. The biggest “moons” are residences, hotels and private apartments.

The total floor area will host more than 150,000 habitants, with 50% of the lot area dedicated to green and connections, open areas, common grounds, places. More than 800,000 square meters dedicated to hotels, spa, wellness areas, 6,300,000 square meters to shopping malls, galleries, museums, 4,500,000 square meters to offices and other social services.

Covering a total constructed area of 600,000 square meters, the program will host residencies, offices and collective and commercial spaces. The tallest building will reach 470 meters while the second and third of the first group on the ground will successively descend in height. The tallest “moon” on the sea will reach 190 meters while the second 115 meters and the third 90 meters.

The masterplan has been created to constantly evolve because it will depend on the different environments where it model is adapted.
