Architecture & Interior Design
Studio — Riyadh, KSA
Marsa Atelier is a Riyadh-based studio practicing architecture and interior design with an unwavering commitment to craft. Every project begins as a study in material truth — how stone accepts light, how concrete holds shadow, how space shapes movement and meaning. We draw from the region's rich spatial traditions, translating them into architecture that is precisely contemporary and deeply rooted.
From master plan to material specification — Marsa Atelier offers a complete architectural service, held together by obsessive attention to craft at every scale.
New-build design from concept through construction administration. We work across residential, commercial, cultural, and hospitality typologies, bringing precision of thought to every scale.
Spaces that hold their quality over decades. We approach interiors as an extension of architectural logic — material palettes, furniture, lighting, and bespoke millwork that cohere into a single whole.
Strategic vision for larger sites and mixed-use developments. We establish the ordering principles — movement, public space, building massing — that give a development its enduring identity.
Photorealistic renders and immersive walkthroughs that communicate spatial intent with precision — a critical tool for client engagement and planning approvals.
Expert review, design audits, and feasibility studies for developments at any stage. We bring fresh eyes to complex briefs and navigate the regulatory landscape with confidence.
Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in light.
A focused team of architects and designers who share an uncompromising belief in the power of space to shape human experience.
Trained at the AA London and Harvard GSD, Khalid founded Marsa Atelier in 2009 with a singular vision: to build architecture in Saudi Arabia that matches the finest work being made anywhere in the world.
Sara leads the interior design practice, bringing a rigorous material sensibility shaped by training in Milan and a decade of practice across the Gulf. Her work is defined by restraint and warmth in equal measure.
Omar manages the translation of design intent into built reality — working closely with contractors, engineers, and clients through construction to ensure the final building holds its quality to the last detail.
Whether you have a brief, a site, or simply a question — we welcome the conversation. Every project at Marsa Atelier begins with listening.
