The idea of RR Architects emerged with the urge to creatively preserve the rich historical and cultural significance of the Kingdom's Architecture with the fusion of contemporary concepts. The cultural transition in Saudi Arabia has created an arena for Modern Architecture that caters to the needs of the ever-expanding and diverse urban population. The fundamental belief at RR is to create designs that are interactive with the built environment, climate-responsive, earthy, functional, and promote the ideals of sustainable living. The nature of development in the region with the characteristics of Modern Design needs to be re-imagined, by emphasizing the sociocultural identity in design.
The new-age architecture needs to focus on the principles of climate-responsive designs through innovative solutions in a complex planning environment and strategic initiatives that are based on a result-oriented approach.
We strongly believe in imagining, planning, and visualizing our designs through creative experimentation and critical thinking. Our process of conceptualizing the building, its form, and its behavior in the built environment takes place through our rigorous efforts in thinking about the many probable scenarios of development. The experience of designing with the principle of Contextual and Vernacular Architecture has been essential to creating socially engaging, sustainable, and community-oriented architecture. RR Architects is committed to working on challenges of different scales and sizes in the public and private sectors and leaving a mark with their holistic space planning and design methodology.
Vision 2030, is on the path to diversifying the economy and transforming the culture of Urban living and as we align ourselves with the objective, our primary aim is to contribute to the tenets of Sustainable Development, through emerging, innovative, and reliable design concepts with a pragmatic and far-sighted approach.
Landscape
The environment is the most impacting element in the design and shaping of architecture. It becomes much more important than ever to assess the influence of micro-climate on prospective development with the current state of our Urban Ecology. The landscape of the Arabian Cities is ever-transforming, especially in the current scheme of things, the surge of green-field planning, and the emergence of city-oriented projects to improve the environment and temperature in public spaces has emphasized the need for reducing the carbon impact. This creates a dire need for designers to experiment with the regional tree typology, engage with the building material sciences, and build through sustainable building techniques.
For a firm, that has emerged out of the capital city of Riyadh, (that stands for meadows/gardens), we believe that a well-synchronized interplay of oasis, local stones and rocks, earthy architecture, and biophilic elements can nurture the character of a building design, streetscape or the urban landscape in public spaces. We envision our designs to contribute towards shaping environment-friendly architecture that impacts largely its immediate context and even the surrounding.
We believe in a thorough climate analysis of the site, with a stage-wise approach towards building a character to the regional landscape, reflecting through the cultural features in the design. Also, with our deep research on tree typology, we tend to include the local species from the bio-diversity of Arabia, and include them in our design process, for well-tailored and responsive results.

We undertake the process of interiorly and exteriorly designing and planning projects and facilities, using modern methods and scientific knowledge, besides mixing it with professional, artistic, and creative dimensions to produce a unique modern concept.
Interior Design
Building designs and their efficiency largely depend on the space programming and planning of the interiors which not only gives a purpose to our designs but also gives a glimpse of the designer’s thought process and the kind of experiments they’re willing to offer. At RR, our effort is to continue to design, manage and plan with the most sustainable and evolving interior concepts such as living walls, earth walls, biophilic designs, and eco-friendly spaces. We further involve and build a collaboration with a number of craftsmen that work on reflecting the local Najdi character in the interiors.
As we strongly believe, Modern interiors are not just limited to the use of contemporary and popular building materials, it further needs socially interactive spaces that maximize the potential utilized peripheries of the enclosed spaces. The design objective remains to introduce authentic interior components in the buildings that offer a sense of community to the people.
Product Design
Our products often reflect the nature and character of individuals and their lifestyle preferences. We design according to the specific requirements and comprehensive analysis of our clients to offer the most suitable living experience. In this process, we collaborate with both regional and international designers who handle the manufacturing of various components of our daily-use furniture. However, we uphold unique standards that align with our building or landscape designs, as user experience is equally important to us in enhancing the overall experience.
The products we design are not just limited to residential or commercial design layouts, we further design large-scale mixed-use and hospitality projects, featuring clients from different economic strata and needs.
At RR, our product designs are a result of innovative thinking, comfort-oriented planning, and a series of conversations to convert our thoughts into reality.
Artwork
As it is famously said and believed – ‘Art, freedom, and creativity’ has the tendency to influence society and the way it thinks. At RR, our effort remains to collaborate, empower and feature the many artists and art forms of Saudi Culture, that are experiencing one of the most distinctive phases of transition, as we foresee a time when these art forms find great avenues of expression.
We do not just envision physical art pieces but are also striving to create digital art experiences in the public realm that can be showcased, nurtured, and celebrated. Our Art forms include paintings, sketches, scenic scenarios, nature-oriented art, and digital artworks.
Modern Arabian society relishes the different art forms and embraces the diversity that comes with them. Further, it possesses a prolific artistic sense, our efforts are to materialize the many aspects of Saudi traditions and Culture with a contemporary fusion and create commendable artwork that stands on its own identity and finds utterance.
