Misk Foundation Headquarters

The Misk Foundation Headquarters in Riyadh stands as a symbol of modern progress and purpose-driven architecture, housing one of Saudi Arabia’s most influential non-profit organisations focused on youth empowerment, innovation, and societal development. The building’s bold, future-forward design reflects Misk’s values, blending sustainability, openness, and technology into a unified space that supports creativity and collaboration.

Design Confidence played a critical role in shaping the safety infrastructure of the headquarters, providing end-to-end fire and life safety consultancy. This included comprehensive risk assessments, advanced smoke and egress modelling, and the development of tailored fire strategies suited to the unique architectural vision of the project.

The team worked closely with designers, engineers, and regulatory bodies to integrate passive and active fire protection measures while preserving the building’s visual and functional intent. Their expertise also covered accessibility and crowd dynamics planning, ensuring the space is safe, inclusive, and navigable under all conditions.

Through this collaboration, Design Confidence helped establish the Misk Foundation Headquarters as a benchmark for high-performance, human-centric institutional spaces in the region, where innovation is enabled by design, and protected by expert engineering.
