Architecture shaped by contour, privacy and landscape.
A concise reading of the design story—followed by the full masterplan.ARCHITECT INTERVIEW
Dewan on the architecture of Layan Verde.
01
Follow the terrain
Stepped volumes work with the hillside instead of flattening it. The project reads as a sequence of planted levels rather than a wall of buildings.


02
See, but not be seen
Orientation, terraces and changes in level are used to protect outlooks while reducing direct exposure between residences.


03
A living landscape
Shade, water, planted edges and walking routes continue through the architecture, making landscape part of everyday movement.


MASTERPLAN VIEWER
Read the whole hillside on one drawing.
