The House of Khadijah

'The House of Khadijah: A Historical Study of Its Location, Building and Architecture’ This is an example of our book design and production work. We embarked on this multifaceted publication, written by Ahmed Zaki Yamani, by looking to the sacred landmark’s unique features for inspiration.

After extensive research, we commissioned an artist/architect to create specialist 3D renderings of the site in Makkah, Saudi Arabia with the help of historical documents and existing plan drawings. These renderings formed the backbone of the book’s design, visually enriching the text and adding value for the client.

The design for ‘The House of Khadijah’ utilised a six-fold geometric language and featured ornate bespoke patterns throughout, which visually referenced a decorative tile with a six-sided motif found in the prayer niche in the Place of Concealment.
