Lifestyle hotel and boutique retail experience

Design for Albaker Architects, Doha.

 

DohAlive is a mixed use development which addresses the functional and organisatioalconcerns of public space in the city of Doha.

 

It introduces unique spatial qualities by fusing the mixed-use program with the surrounding community and by connecting it to the urban fabric. This connectivity infiltrates the project with a series of interconnected spaces through the mass of the building providing visual connectivity and interest while at the same time flooding the spaces with natural light.

 

The use of transparent and permeable surfaces are used to spatially and visually connect Hotel and Retail areas, further aided by the curvilinear shapes and sophisticated angles which encourage fluid mobility and exploration.
