Mina Zayed Redevelopment

  1. Bridging Heritage and Sustainability, Fisherman’s Wharf: Mina Zayed, a hallmark of Abu Dhabi’s maritime heritage, is experiencing a transformative resurgence. In collaboration with Al Suweidi consultants, DMT, and Modon Properties, our contributions are centered around enhancing and reusing the existing space, echoing the sentiment that nothing is greener than breathing new life into a historic place. Our work synergizes the region’s rich history with forward-thinking sustainable principles, ensuring Mina Zayed’s legacy thrives in a sustainable future, targeting the 2 Pearl Rating under Estidama. True sustainability transcends the mere constructs of green buildings or energy efficiency. It encapsulates spaces that seamlessly weave the ancient with the contemporary, bolstering economic growth and underscoring the importance of community and cultural significance. By choosing to improve and repurpose, Mina Zayed becomes a testament to Abu Dhabi’s commitment to the environment and its rich heritage.
