The Jeddah Municipality approved the Architectural and Urban Landscape Code for the City of Jeddah, after completing its preparation, to serve as one of the regulatory references adopted for the urban landscape.

The code sets clear controls for façade design, building massing, and the organization of the relationship between buildings and the public realm.

The requirements include site coordination elements, pedestrian movement, and road and parking networks, while taking into consideration the climatic and coastal characteristics of the City of Jeddah.

The code covers multiple levels of regulatory treatments at the building, street, and public space levels, with variations in building uses and diversity in development patterns.

It also enhances control over visual identity and architectural balance, reducing visual disparity and achieving coherence between existing and future projects.

This project comes as part of Beeah’s efforts to develop applied regulatory frameworks, within the context of joint efforts to regulate and develop the urban landscape of the City of Jeddah.
