Qetaifan Island North · Lusail · Qatar
Shaping the Qetaifan skyline — two sculpted towers between sea and sky.
01 Overview
The OQ Residences Qetaifan is a proposed residential development on Qetaifan Island North, Lusail, set beside The Grove. Flowing, layered floor plates rise above a podium of gardens, pools and shared spaces, with the towers turned toward the Doha skyline.
02 The concept
A singular coastal mass is progressively carved by landscape, wind and views — into a porous podium and two aerodynamic towers, oriented toward the Doha skyline.
From the ocean and the wind — form generation
As a wadi carves rock, soft curved edges bring visual continuity, while stepped volumes frame a central opening that draws in light and connects the spaces.

Design generation
A 22-metre residential bar over the podium, planned on an 8-metre unit module, with a 2-metre offset reserved for balconies.
The typical unit is articulated and the corners emphasised. Hard edges soften into curves that carry the eye around the building.
Balconies are articulated and the floor plate mirrored. Two typical plates, A and B, alternate level by level — so the façade flows while the structure stays efficient.
The final massing, as rendered today: layered, flowing floor plates and a central opening that draws in light — balconies layered like strata worn by water and wind.

03 The ascent
A shaded garden threshold at the street. A social landscape of pools and outdoor rooms on the podium. Residences in the towers — and a sky level open to the Doha skyline.
Ground level
As the boulevard unfolds, the tower emerges — a garden suspended in the sky.
Along the street, intimate nooks and seating sit beneath sculptural canopies, with curated lighting and immersive planting. A continuous greenway weaves through the site to a shaded oasis garden and outdoor café. Inside, a double-height arrival lobby is anchored by a live tree installation.
Podium amenity level
A sequence of cultivated outdoor rooms — and the shared spaces inside — at the heart of the site.
A lagoon ‘beach’ pool edge with a waterfall overlook, a two-lane lap pool and a shallow lower pool with submerged loungers.
Café terraces, an outdoor kitchen with a communal table, a fire-lit overlook and hammock nooks beneath flowering arbors.
A double-height lounge with biophilia and organic wood, an art gallery hall, a café lounge with a terrace over the pool, and a mini-market.
A private sanctuary with separate male and female facilities: sauna, steam room, hot and cold tubs and massage chairs.
Cardio, strength and functional training zones, a yoga room, changing rooms and a juice bar.
An intimate cinema with a large projection wall and recliners, a game room, and a flexible private event room.
The residences
Open-plan living, curved balconies or terraces, and floor-to-ceiling glass that follows the façade.
Layouts shown are indicative and subject to change.
Sky level & roof
At the top, the full Doha skyline — framed by an infinity pool and a single wind-swept tree.
A sky-level lobby suspended above the city: flowing metal mesh and mirrored ceilings, and a bridge that links amenities and residences while framing the skyline.
Banquette niches and lounge nooks around a carousel-inspired bar, opening to the outdoors through an operable storefront.
An infinity-edge pool overlooking the skyline, a fire oculus, council-ring seating, a leisure lawn and a juice bar.
05 Gallery
Floor-to-ceiling curved glass and private curved balconies — two floor plates alternating level by level, so the façade flows like strata.

06 Location
Beside The Grove, at the boulevard’s edge — its podium echoing The Grove’s curving forms along the greenway.
The site nestles beside the existing Grove development, within the master plan’s established road network, for one continuous experience along the greenway.
