Sharjah's District 11 masterplan introduces the UAE's first AI-planned urban environment, blending work, leisure, and community spaces. Designed by HWKN, the plan addresses a need for commercial hubs in Sharjah, traditionally characterized by residential structures. The district will feature essential amenities and prioritize walkability. Each of the eleven buildings utilizes AI insights based on local climate and cultural identity, enabling efficient design processes focused on collaboration and thermal comfort—traits often overlooked in Gulf developments. This innovative project aims to reshape professional environments and foster new social interactions.
District 11 is envisioned as a 'work resort', where AI-driven design fosters integrated living, social interaction, and responds to Sharjah's unique urban identity.
HWKN's approach to District 11 utilizes AI-generated prompts to inform building designs, focusing on heat mitigation and creating a walkable environment in Sharjah.
