A waterfront residential concept overlooking the Red Sea. Layered terraces, open views and a lively arrival edge connect the scale of a coastal development with the everyday experience of coming home.

The concept

The concept explores a residential address that belongs equally to the city and the waterfront. Repeated balcony lines create a recognizable silhouette, while the lower levels are imagined as a welcoming threshold between arrival, landscape and the sea.

Materials & detail

Light-toned structure, deep balcony reveals and reflective glazing give the elevations their rhythm. Close views study how these elements meet; wider compositions show the same material language in relation to the promenade and coastal horizon.

Light & atmosphere

A soft maritime atmosphere helps separate the foreground from the distant skyline. Warm interior tones are balanced against cooler sea and sky, keeping the residences inviting while allowing the architecture and balcony profiles to remain legible.

The experience

Pedestrians, planting and arrival activity place the towers in an inhabited setting. The five views move from the overall waterfront address to the interior, terrace and architectural details, building a visual narrative suitable for a residential launch concept.

The five-view collection

Waterfront exterior — Afloat on the Corniche concept — **Waterfront exterior.** Layered residential terraces face the sea, while the active arrival edge anchors the towers in city life. Coastal light and reflections soften the scale of the development.

Sea-facing living — Afloat on the Corniche concept — **Sea-facing living.** An interior perspective explores the quieter side of waterfront living. Warm finishes and comfortable seating frame the coastal view, bringing the development’s wider setting into the home.

Waterfront arrival — Afloat on the Corniche concept — **Waterfront arrival.** At promenade level, palms and pedestrian activity bring the residential podium into focus. The view describes the development as part of a walkable waterfront, connecting its larger architecture to daily routines.

Private terrace — Afloat on the Corniche concept — **Private terrace.** Comfortable outdoor seating frames a long view across the Red Sea. Limestone, timber and planting soften the terrace, while the neighbouring tower places this private space within the wider residential setting.

Facade detail — Afloat on the Corniche concept — **Facade detail.** A closer perspective reveals the rhythm of balcony edges, recessed glazing and planting. Light across the limestone gives the elevation depth, making the materials legible beyond the distant waterfront silhouette.
