Sallan Creek (DHIFAF)

Sallan Creek reimagines a coastal creek in North Al Batinah as the spine of a new mixed-use district. A navigable waterway — DHIFAF — threads through nineteen zones, binding economic hubs, tourism and community life into one walkable landscape.

The programme balances growth with heritage: an international expo and pavilions, an education hub, twin luxury towers, an office and business hub and a logistics area tied to Sohar Port sit alongside an agri-touristic village, farm-to-table harvest tourism, boutique hotels, a family park, a sports arena and a coastal wellness centre, ending at a marina and waterfront bungalows.

An urban mobility network of main, secondary and service roads is layered with golf-cart promenades, shaded pedestrian paths and cycle lanes, so every zone is reachable without a car.

I refined the concept masterplan, built the 3D model of the entire district and produced the aerial renders and presentation that carried it to the client.
