RIYADH, 7 days ago
Following the successful delivery of Sindalah, a luxury resort destination on Red Sea and the first physical showcase of Saudi futuristic city NEOM, top yachting architecture firm Luca Dini Design & Architecture has launched its new venture.
A premium project in the kingdom, Sindalah offers world-class restaurants, hotels, venues and experiences and is set to welcome up to 2,400 guests per day by 2028. The island will also generate around 3,500 jobs.
The new venture, Luca Dini International Projects, has been set up in partnership with four internationally-renowned and trusted engineering partners - Italian groups Maffeis Engineering and Tekne, US-based ATM (Applied Technology and Management) and engineering group ACE.
Announcing this at Cityscape Global 2024, Luca Dini said the new entity will cater to the soaring demand from customers for integrated design and engineering services in Saudi Arabia’s rapidly expanding market.
This experienced team, comprising over 700 professionals, will be delivering comprehensive, cutting-edge solutions through advanced technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM), Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA), and AI-driven design processes.
The collaboration is expected to be crucial in realising key initiatives under Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, including significant developments such as the PIF Giga Projects, Expo 2030 Riyadh, and the 2034 World Cup, stated the yachting architecture firm.
According to Luca Dini, each of the partner firms brings a wealth of expertise to the table.
Maffeis Engineering, with its global workforce of more than 320 professionals, boasts a multidisciplinary approach, while ATM is a specialist in coastal and waterfront developments.
Tekne has a strong focus on engineering and architecture, with particular strength in construction planning, and ACE adds further depth with its interior design and construction management solutions, it added.
"We are extremely proud to officialise a long-lasting relationship with four of our most trusted partners. Over the years, Maffeis Engineering, ATM, Tekne and ACE have successfully collaborated with the Studio on over 15 projects, and the launch of Luca Dini International Projects represents the culmination of years of shared expertise and innovation," remarked its founder Luca Dini.
"Saudi Arabia is a land of opportunities and growth, and the partnership will enable the Studio to explore fields beyond our core business, allowing our partners to build an even more solid portfolio," he stated.
"Together with Luca Dini Design & Architecture, the partnership will offer bespoke, end-to-end services across various sectors, including residential, hospitality, tourism, industrial, retail, and commercial real estate," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
