In keeping with the overall development ethos of the Ashar Experience, we were guided by the natural beauty of the landscape, capturing the awe-inspiring presence of the natural features, and impacting as little as possible on the existing formations and eco system of the wadi.
Inspired by the nomadic nature of Nabataean architecture, the tented resort concept epitomises a light touch approach.

Privacy and shelter go hand in hand here creating an intimate environment and framing the breathtaking views.
We were appointed as the AOR working in conjunction with French architects AW²
