One of the most important tools to realize this urban transformation is the Kingdom’s urban identity projects initiative which focuses on defining the Kingdom’s architectural and urban identities by dividing the Kingdom into nineteen realms - each with unique regional & urban identities.

Guidelines & directives include but are not limited to the design and forms of different elements, materiality & preferred colors, & components that identify the character & pattern of buildings to ensure consistency with the urban pattern requirements.

To advance the region’s development projects consistent with its urban and architectural identity objectives, qualified Design Studios are required to be established. The objective of each Design Studio is to provide consultancy services & directives for new development projects in support of implementing urban & architectural guidelines, detailed codes, design directives & processes.
