1 month agoopen planted courtyard organizes a cafe carved directly into rock in saudi arabia
Peacock Ha'il is a project by Movs Studio located in Ha'il, Saudi Arabia, within an evolving urban context shaped by new construction and prominent geological formations. The site originally consisted of an unfinished structure positioned directly beside a tall formation, which became a defining condition for the project and a central design constraint. Rather than treating the rock as a backdrop or decorative feature, the design integrates it into the architectural logic of the café.
