SUMOU is an urban development set to reshape a key site in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia, into a connected district. It brings together places to live, work, and shop in a setting that makes daily life effortless. The aim is to build a community that is easy to access and use, and that holds its value over time.

Centered around a public space, the development uses pedestrian paths to link shops, restaurants, and gathering areas. Walkways provide shade and landscaping supports outdoor use throughout the year, with spaces built for the local climate. Retail and dining are located in low-rise buildings, encouraging people to visit and interact.

Two towers anchor the development: one residential and one office. These add activity to the site, while open ground-level spaces keep the area accessible. Residents have privacy, views, and access to amenities. Offices offer flexible layouts for modern work.

SUMOU responds to the growth of the city of Al Khobar by linking urban life to leisure – rather than separating living, working, and recreation, SUMOU combines them in a single district. This approach supports economic growth and strengthens the city’s identity.
