Moving to Sharjah is an incredible experience, but chances are you might feel a little overwhelmed. After all, there’s so much to see, do, and experience in Sharjah. Where should you begin looking for a place to call home? Fortunately, there’s Aljada’s Central Hub. This is one of the key features of Aljada’s new development in Sharjah. Full of restaurants, activities, shops, community centers, and parks to make your family feel right at home, the Central Hub is one of the most important and valuable features of Sharjah. Here’s what you need to know.
- Design
Aljada’s Central Hub is an incredible 176,516 square meters in size. It’s large enough to provide everything the community needs, including grocery stores, retail outlets, fashion shops, art museums, and healthcare offices. With the Central Hub, you don’t even have to leave Aljada to enjoy going to a movie, spending time with your friends, or enjoying a romantic evening with your spouse. The Central Hub was designed by Zaha Hadid Architects who thought of everything you need to make your experience in Sharjah one to remember.
- Development
ARADA plans to launch phase one of Central Hub’s development in Q4 2018. After a global competition to select the perfect architectural firm, Zaha Hadid Architects was the clear choice. One of the primary reasons this firm was chosen to bring Central Hub to life is Zaha Hadid Architects’ understanding of environmental concerns and considerations. Aljada is an incredibly green and forward-thinking community that focuses on creating a sustainable living community for generations to come.
- Drawing Points
Central Hub and Aljada as a whole bring many wonderful benefits to the local community. The design for this, according to ARADA, “conceptualizes the first moment a water droplet strikes the earth’s surface, captured in an array of elliptical buildings designed to channel prevailing winds into civic spaces and courtyards to facilitate cooling during the summer months.” Whether it’s winter or summer, Aljada’s Central Hub is designed to be an incredible place to build memories, spend time relaxing, and living your life with your loved ones.
One of the primary design features is the hub’s observation tower. This incredible building overlooks public squares that have been designed to incorporate a number of different water features. The best part? They feature recycled water. The focus on water will assist in maintaining the beautiful gardens and parks in the community, as well as sustaining the plant species native to the area.
- Sharjah of Tomorrow
While there was fierce competition in designing Central Hub and Aljada’s community in general, the chosen architectural firm clearly demonstrated an understanding of the primary vision of Aljada: to create a beautiful, environmentally conscious community that will be a primary drawing point in the Sharjah of Tomorrow.
