TalentS was in charge of the visitor experience design and development through interior design, content creation, and fitout. This transformed the center into a vibrant multisensory timeline of the historical city and turned historical ambiguous topics that have yet to be studied into opportunities        for visitor interactions, as Fayd is an ongoing archaeological site. 

This Visitor Center is located on the ancient Zubaydah pilgrimage route. This project aimed to refresh the historical city of Fayd, and turn it into a tourist destination while preserving the rich Islamic heritage of this area.

The Visitor Center was commissioned by the Ministry of Tourism.

TalentS designed, created and operated a 750 square meters temporary museum that operated for one year. The museum aimed to reflect the rich history of Hail that stems from ancient civilizations to modern day Saudi Arabia, with the aim to draw visitors from around the kingdom.

The Hail region is filled with markings on its mountains inscribed by men from ancient civilizations, that has survived for thousands of years, hence the name, the Mountains Treasures Museum.

TalentS was commissioned by Ministry of Culture to prepare Museum Development strategies for the Tariq Abdulhakim Museum and Research Center (TAH).Initially, TalentS conducted a strategic benchmarking study whose findings and recommendations will guide the rest of the project, which aims to identify the TAH Center’s unique value proposition. 

Architectural planning and work on the museum’s core components, such as narrative, collections curation, research and scenography, is already underway. Our findings, however, will guide the thinking around the museum’s narrative and exhibition design in the years to come. Set to open in 2022 the TAH Center is a Museum dedicated to the Saudi Arabian composer and musician, Tariq Abdulhakim.

TalentS along with their partners consulted on the possible creation of a museum with a total size of the internal spaces of approximately 15,000m2, with the requirement for an additional 5,000m2 for external landscaping and exhibit experiences.

The consultation included the strategic direction, creation, design, interpretation, and operations services for the completion of the Misk ILMI Museum.
