Zaha Hadid Architects is poised to create a paradigm shift in architectural design on Qetaifan Island

Acknowledged for his exceptional contributions to design and architecture, Racana broke the thrilling news of Zaha Hadid Architects and JMJ Holding Group's recent contract signing. In an exclusive interview at Cityscape 2023, Gianluca Racana, a board director at Zaha Hadid Architects, provided Qatar Living Properties with details on an intriguing partnership that is developing on Qetaifan Island.

With their groundbreaking work in a variety of fields and sizes, Zaha Hadid Architects is expected to revolutionise architectural architecture on Qetaifan Island. Under the direction of senior office partner Patrik Shumacher and the late Zaha Hadid, the company is well-known around the world for its innovative and avant-garde designs.

The renowned Al Janoub Stadium is one of Zaha Hadid's groundbreaking projects in Qatar and is evidence of the firm's inventiveness. The stadium pays homage to Al Wakrah's rich fishing and pearl diving tradition. It was the first project in Zaha Hadid's portfolio in Qatar.Its design is an homage to the nautical heritage of the area, taking inspiration from the wind-whipped sails of ancient dhow boats. The stadium's roof, modelled after the sails of pearl-diving Dhow boats, represents Al Wakrah's cultural heritage. The cleverly designed inside of the sitting stands imitates the rippling waves of the ocean, creating a singular viewing experience.

The careful consideration of the interplay between building, landscape, and geology is what motivates the architects at Zaha Hadid. This method encourages experimenting with state-of-the-art technology and produces surprisingly dynamic shapes.

A groundbreaking architectural project on Qetaifan Island is poised to begin with the release of blueprints for Cityscape 2023. The project aims to raise the bar for luxury living by combining creativity and innovation with one's own living space. The architectural community is excited about Zaha Hadid Architects' ambitious project and how they will bring this exceptional vision to life.
