Conclusions and Remarks
Jeddah was first inhabited about 2,500 years ago as a small fishing settlement and has long been a centre for traders. The city was already an established port with a history of spice trading when Caliph Osman Ibn affan declared it the official port for Muslim pilgrims making their way to the Holy Cities of Makkah and Madinah in 26 (647). This marked a turning point in Jeddah’s future, not only because of the increased possibilities for commerce but also because the arrival of pilgrims from all over the world. Dr. Khaled Ali Youssef

Conclusions and Remarks
Despite the fact that the visions are proposed by students and revised by instructors of 3 specializations, the experiment seems to open the door for professional investigations by professional entities of more specializations. In this studio students were given the chance to ‘think globally and act locally’; achieving the URP/AR/LA skills they are intended to achieve adopting the concept of ‘design by subject’.
