Bahrain Bay

Location: Manama, Bahrain

Area: 440.000 m2

Completion date:

Bahrain Bay is one of the projects that Arzu Senel together with Raffaele Oppido and Rajiv Khushalani executed while working for Rafael Vinoly Architects. It is a development located on islands off the coast of Manama City in Bahrain.

The design covers 4.3 million square feet of high-end residential and retail space across four lots. The proposal unifies the area in one architectural style, curving the walls in section as well as in the plan view. The buildings have elevated infrastructure to create a new, sophisticated 3-dimensional urban typology.
