Hijaz Yacht Club

Set within the Triple Bay Marina of the Prince Mohammed bin Salman Nature Reserve, AMAALA Yacht Club is a centrepiece development with a captivating free-flowing structure that will create a one-of-a-kind meeting point between land and sea. Drawing design inspiration from two sets of geometry, HKS first looked to the Red Sea rock formations on the Saudi coast to create the club’s bespoke cantilevered terraces which echo the forms of the cliffs which have been eroded by wind and sea. The second inspiration is linked to mankind’s relationship with the sea and maritime history. This nautical edge will ensure the building sits seamlessly within the marina as a central hub and focal point. Alongside the ‘sea meets land’ concept, the design references the concept of a traditional Arabian house with a simple smooth white exterior that is cut back to reveal luxurious metal externally and a rich palette of natural materials internally such as stone, timber, and leather. Covering 7,900 square metres and set on four levels, the ultra-luxurious club is set to create a home from home for its members whether to do business, relax, entertain, or take part in the many yachting events.
