Kaaki Land will be the largest hotel in the world once completed, with the site located 3km south west of Islam’s holiest places, the Kaaba.
Arranged in blocks, the accommodation is focused on 13 landscaped courtyards and a large central garden that provides communal space at the heart of development. Traffic has been a key design consideration due to the need to accommodate large numbers of coaches during busy pilgrimage seasons.
The development of the design was created using parametric design tools to enable volumetric control of rooms throughout the masterplan.
