About
THE PROJECT

In order to achieve integration between traditional and contemporary architecture, the Gulf Council Interconnection Authority (GCIA) project located in Dammam–KSA was inspired to reflect a modern yet authentic civilization, with the aim to embrace sustainable and ecological concepts to encourage positive consumption of power and renewable energy.
The Gulf Council Interconnection Authority consists of multi-floor buildings throughout the site, and the project also houses a mosque, a recreational centre to serve the users and is surrounded with a piazza and embellished with astonishing gardens.
