Judicial Court Complex
Makkah
ZFP won the second prize in the design competition for this project. The judicial complex consists of four independent courts on the land area of 43,600 m2 and built up area of 150,000 m2. The mass and form of the court building illustrate simplicity, balance, and strength, characteristics associated with the meaning of justice and its imposition. The building masses and configuration, as well as its façade treatment, are inspired by architectural and artistic heritage and rephrases traditional elements to result into a contemporary sculptural mass that stands strong in a future context as well.
