Late Princess Um Talal Palace – Taif

This complex was built as a summer house for a prominent member of the Royal Family.
The site, chosen with great care on a hill top overlooking the surroundings, dictated the extrovert architectural concept where every major function enjoys the view.
The oblique entrance drive way, the inclined red-tiled roof, and the play of mass and space give the whole setting a dramatic approach.
