Chief Operating Officer & Partner, Carter Hones Associates.
Saudi Arabia’s evolution under Vision 2030 continues to be defined by bold, design-led ambition. At Carter Hones Associates, we are proud to have played key roles in a number of signature projects, demonstrating how global expertise can bring transformative vision to life. In the Riyadh Sports Boulevard, a sprawling 135 km linear urban park, Carter Hones Associates provided critical program and stakeholder coordination, managed multidisciplinary consultant teams, and shaped commercial frameworks to ensure seamless delivery. Our Riyadh-based team bridged international and local partners to align timelines, utilities, and permissions while preserving the project’s design integrity – all integral to this pioneering public realm initiative.
Similarly, in a world-class theme park located in The Kingdom, Carter Hones Associates led design management and delivery for renowned international theme park designers. This immersive destination, featuring over 30 attractions including a landmark roller coaster, benefits from our expertise in coordinating creative stakeholders, programming complex attractions, and translating international-themed environments into buildable, regulatory-compliant realities.
These flagship developments are set against impressive market growth: the hospitality sector is forecast to nearly double from approximately $27 billion in 2025 to more than $54 billion by 2030, while the entertainment and leisure segment is anticipated to surge from around $2.8 billion to $4.6 billion over the same period. This growth underscores how intentional design, strategic delivery, and international collaboration are redefining the Kingdom’s visitor economy.
Building on this momentum, Carter Hones Associates is also partnering with leading London-based architecture and design firms on new residential, leisure, and entertainment projects in Saudi Arabia. Further details will be shared in due course, but these collaborations represent our commitment to elevating local development through global creative excellence.
