Masar Cityscape 2025

For the third year in a row, Designlab Experience designed the Masar stand at Cityscape in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Presented as a public-facing experiential pavilion, the stand offered visitors a tangible preview of Masar Swega, translating the future urban destination into an immersive spatial environment.

An urban fabric plan organized into a grid that clearly defined experiential zones that mirror the key components of the Masar Swega development. The layout included two F&B areas, a souk-inspired retail zone, an investors’ lounge, and a dedicated MOU signing area, all arranged around a central urban model representing the Masar boulevard.

At the center of the stand, a large-scale model of the Masar boulevard acted as the primary storytelling anchor, allowing visitors to understand the future vision of the project. Above it, a signature canopy structure referenced the shading systems of Masar Swega, providing architectural continuity while establishing a strong visual focal point within the pavilion. The surrounding buildings were replicated as structures with defined openings, echoing the scale, proportions, and spatial rhythm of the actual Swega Masar development. In addition, the flooring design replicated the exact patterns envisioned for the project’s streetscape. Together, these elements created a cohesive architectural language that mirrored the character of Swega Masar at a smaller scale and reinforced the authenticity of the visitor experience.

Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Location

The spatial sequence unfolded from this central model, guiding visitors through the functions of the stand. From there, guests transitioned into the investors’ lounge, providing a more private environment for discussions and presentations. The experience then extended into the Saudi culinary zones, where curated F&B offerings highlighted regional hospitality.  The retail area recreated the atmosphere of a contemporary souk, showcasing the commercial vibrancy of Masar’s urban streets.

This year's stand provided an immersive preview of Masar's future urban lifestyle. The pavilion acted as both an investment platform and a spatial narrative of the development, demonstrating how temporary architecture can communicate the scale, identity, and ambition of a large urban destination.
