Hospitality design company LW is crafting the interior design of the property.  

The JV between ALEC FITOUT and SAUDICO will handle the fit-out, including civil and structural works, lift interiors, furnishings, and kitchen and laundry equipment, among others. 

Additionally, the JV will undertake landscaping, hardscaping, and facade works. 

This collaboration follows the completion of the Diriyah Gate Visitor Centre by SAUDICO and ALEC FITOUT.
