Landscape
Living Edges
A landscape study that turns ordinary boundaries into living systems — local Saudi clay brick becomes screen, planter, bench, and water edge, where the wall is no longer just a wall.
The brick as DNA
The study starts with local ornamental Saudi clay brick — not as wall or decoration, but as raw material for a whole landscape language. Understanding its types and patterns comes before deciding what it can build.
What a wall can become
Brick is pushed into new roles: screen, planter, bench, tree surround, water edge, privacy wall, vertical garden, canopy support. A boundary stops being a boundary and starts doing work.
A material family
Brick is joined by wood, palm frond, stone, gravel, metal, terracotta and water — each with a role: wood to sit, palm to shade, stone for water and paving, plants for scent, food, privacy and biodiversity.
The edge becomes alive
The direction resolves into linear gardens, courtyards, radial gathering courts, curved brick walls and shaded garden rooms — all from one DNA: local brick, natural material, Saudi planting, water logic, shade, and human use.
