RESIDENTIAL CLUSTERS
The Sustainable City houses 500 villas which are grouped into five
residential clusters. Each cluster is comprised of 90 Courtyard Villas,
8 Garden Villas, and 2 Signature Villas. These clusters are connected to
an urban farm which runs the length of the city. Residential clusters in
The Sustainable City are named after date palm tree types - Lulu, Berhi,
Hilali, Jabri and Khalas.
The award-winning 357m2 villa is a two-story, L-shaped design which includes domestic
help accommodation. It combines ergonomic excellence with contemporary design to
meet the highest environmental performance standards without compromising on a
charming living space. Each residential cluster also offers four small parks to maximize
the outdoor space.

THE URBAN FARM
A flourishing park runs through the entire length of The Sustainable City
forming the community's Central Green Spine.

In addition to producing various vegetables inside the 10 biodomes, the


development is also built around a “productive landscape”. This means
that the plants in the Sustainable City were not chosen solely on their
aesthetics, but on their ability to create shade, fix nitrogen in the soil and
clean the air, create habitats and cooler microclimate, and also to
produce food. A social club that helps guide them through the growing
process is available to residents as well as urban farm allotments, access
to compost, and potable water.
