The Abrahamic Family House is a landmark interfaith complex located on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. This unique and visionary development is designed to promote mutual understanding, respect, and dialogue among the world's major religions.

The complex features three main structures: a mosque, a church, and a synagogue, symbolising unity among the Abrahamic faiths. Each building is distinct in its design yet harmoniously integrated into a shared space. The project reflects the UAE's commitment to fostering inclusivity and cultural exchange, making it a significant symbol of peace and coexistence.

Design Confidence played a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and sustainability of the project by providing expert engineering and advisory services. The consultancy was responsible for conducting thorough fire and life safety reviews, ensuring that the complex adhered to the highest standards of safety while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of its architectural design. Its input was crucial in enhancing the performance and resilience of the structures, contributing to the project's overall success as a beacon of interfaith unity and architectural excellence.
