Sharaan By Jean Nouvel

Set deep within the stunning scenery of Sharaan Nature Reserve, the Sharaan by Jean Nouvel is a bold hotel concept inspired by AlUla’s ancient Nabataean architecture and dramatic desertscape. A world first, this stunning resort will be sculpted from an immense rock formation. A circular courtyard will be carved out of the sandstone, while inside a series of rooms will be arranged around a central 80-metre high lift shaft pointing to the sky. Each suite will open to a balcony with stunning desert views. The project will also draw on emission-free power and new standards in sustainability.
