The capital’s population is forecast to reach 9.6 million by 2030 from 7 million in 2022, Knight Frank said in a 2024 report. Élevée stands about 1.5 km from that financial district, in Al-Nakheel. It comprises eight towers, three residential with 1,779 apartments, two for a hotel and serviced apartments, and three for offices, with shops in two further buildings, the company said. The site covers 73,892 square meters and the project has a built-up area of 254,340 square meters. More than 40 percent of the site is open space and landscaping, ZOOD said. The project is due for completion at the end of 2029. ZOOD won awards at the Saudi Arabia Property Awards in the 2024-25 cycle, including in architecture and development categories for Élevée. “We do not want to build only. We want to create places where people feel at home, places that respect their privacy and bring together our Saudi identity and a contemporary architectural language,” said Yasser al-Qazlan, chief executive of ZOOD Real Estate. Riyadh-based Jadwa Investment is the project’s strategic partner. The design was led by Elia, an architecture firm based in Barcelona, which drew on Najdi building traditions of shade, filtered light and the gradual move from public space to the privacy of the home. ZOOD said it has delivered 28 projects and holds a portfolio of 34 billion riyals( $9.07 billion), of which 24 billion riyals ($6.4 billion) is under development, across Riyadh, Qassim and Makkah. **Editor’s Notes** **Élevée at a Glance** **Developer:** ZOOD Real Estate **Location:** Al-Nakheel, north Riyadh, on the Northern Ring Road **Investment value:** 2.5 billion riyals, about $667 million **Site area:** 73,892 square meters **Built-up area:** 254,340 square meters **Components:** eight towers.
