Msheireb Downtown Doha Masterplan / Allies and Morrison + AECOM + Arup

© Hufton + Crow
This is a project that looks beyond the scale of an individual building, cluster or campus, to create a coherent piece of the city. The goal has been to learn from the past to build a contemporary place that can stand the test of time and to support Qatar’s transition to a post-oil economy by creating an attractive urban core that can be a magnet for both local and international visitors, residents and companies. Rare has a project of such scale and ambition – from masterplan concept to execution in detail – been built in the recent history of architecture. The project, which was conceived under the leadership of Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, aspires to offer an alternative form of urban living in a region that has often opted for hastier forms of urban expansion.
