— Sustainability
The brief
Every Sumou project is conceived as something the city hosting it is glad to receive. That conviction shapes every brief we write — and is the test every project must pass before it leaves the studio.
We measure social impact in cohorts: residents, workers, visitors, neighbours, and the next generation of Saudis whose careers are launched on our sites. Each is read separately. Each is reported annually.
The commitments
From site teams to senior leadership, we prioritise Saudi nationals — and we mean it long before the localisation regulations require it. Talent is the longest-tenure asset we build.
Every project gives the city a public moment — a colonnade, a square, a garden — open to anyone, not just the people who can afford to live there.
Our podiums host exhibitions, performances, and community programmes. The address is meant to host the city, not extract from it.
