BrownBook: Saudi

Sale price$40.00

Founded by urbanist and researchers Rashid and Ahmed Bin Shabib, Brownbook became the essential guide to the contemporary Middle East and North Africa, focusing on the region’s people, architecture and cities.
 
After more than a decade and a half of publishing, Brownbook’s 70th edition explores Riuadh's evolving culture, art, and architectural landscape. We witness the convergence of tradition and technology shaping its new future. Among those contributing are Sara Alissa and Nojoud Al-Sudairi, safeguarding Riyadh’s heritage amidst rapid urban growth. We also speak to Safeya Binzagr, the master of Saudi art, a trailblazing painter capturing the Kingdom’s spirit for half a century.

Traditional, contemporary, and modernist architectural landmarks across the city are reshaping its character, a theme explored in this issue, along with a special booklet focused on its modern architectural history.

Finally, we delve into the city’s social aspects, including Camel Step Cafe, and explore legends that venture into the captivating world of camel racing.
