Diverse Portfolio
SOMA has built a reputation for thought-provoking projects, thanks to our founder, Michel Abboud’s defiant no compromise stance, in terms of design. He continuously raises the bar in the architecture sphere, which has gained him respect among clients, and design professionals. His work is characterized with remarkable offerings of projects that underscore his firm’s cutting-edge appeal. This bold design philosophy defines SOMA as one of the growing innovative Riyadh architecture firms, as it has in each of our locations, with a portfolio of projects across all scales, from interiors, residential spaces to expansive commercial complexes.
For example, in Jeddah, Mayasem mixed-use development, embodying a blend of contemporary design principles with a nod to cultural nuances, mirroring the dynamic evolution of the city of Jeddah, and the curvilinear forms of the King Road Mall, fully containing various retail functions create a hovering vision of an urban environment: streets, blocks, plazas, and promenades, all lined with retail units. The King Road Mall is a truly green project, fully and self-ventilated, requiring no air conditioning within the public spaces, which is a sustainable feat in Saudi’s harsh desert climate. Additionally, in Riyadh, Rilam El Raed Building portrays modern luxury residential architecture with a strong emphasis on environmental integration and sustainable living.

The firm’s unique fusion of highly skilled design architects,and local market expertise in building code, construction documentation and supervision, allows us to examine all aspects of our projects.
