Design work has now been finalised on HOK’s masterplan for a major urban community on the northeast outskirts of Al Ain. The challenge of the masterplan lay in establishing itself as a business and tourist alternative to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, while focusing on the city’s distinctive ethos of healthy living and proximity to nature.

The Al Ain masterplan is truly mixed use, comprising 30,000 apartments, 3,500 residential villas, 800,000 m2 retail and leisure facilities and 1,500,000 m2 office space as well as religious and public health amenities. In keeping with the city’s focus on healthy living, HOK was briefed to incorporate a sports stadium into the design, bringing together two of HOK’s numerous specialities.
