SARAB was established as a response to a vision of blending creativity with practicality in architectural design. Leverging years of expertise and a passion for new approaches, the firm has focused on delivering exceptional commercial and residential projects, setting a benchmark for creativity and quality in the region.
Our work strives to enhance our sense and understanding of the ability of the built environment to reflect a distant image that was once just a vision and to create tangibility of the none-existent; approaching design through innovation, creativity, and social impact
We approach Architecture, master planning, and design with an experimental yet critical intent that challenges the norms and pushes the boundaries of creating distinctive experiences through the built environment
Our goal is to deliver a unique identity of a space or a product contributing to a change in the way we approach design

experiences.

a sense of feeling becoming almost tangible.
