Riyadh, a city of contrasts with a dual identity, is the capital of Saudi Arabia that rises majestically from the red sands of the Arabian Peninsula. While it takes pride in its deep-rooted traditions and carefully preserves its historical and cultural heritage, it also embraces a bold, forward-looking spirit. Over the decades, Riyadh has evolved from a small town on the road to Mecca into a vibrant, contemporary metropolis and a major hub of international trade.
In the 20th century, the discovery of oil transformed the city, attracting vast investment that fuelled the construction of palaces, skyscrapers, and modern infrastructure, all underpinned by luxury and cutting-edge design. Among the most iconic landmarks are the Al Faisaliah Tower, distinguished by its elegant glass dome, and the Kingdom Centre Tower, soaring 120 metres high and winner of the prestigious 2022 Emporis Skyscraper Award for its outstanding architectural design.
Despite its rapid modernisation, Riyadh still preserves landmarks that speak of its rich past. One of these sites is the Masmak Palace, a clay and mud-brick fortress completed in the late 19th century. It was here that the Battle of Riyadh took place in 1902, paving the way for the founding of modern Saudi Arabia. At a short distance stands Al-Murabba Palace, notable for its square layout, two imposing towers, and traditional architectural features, including a large central courtyard surrounded by a garden. Among the city&#8217;s many places of worship, the Imam Turki Ibn Abdullah Grand Mosque is particularly striking for its scale. Covering approximately 17,000 square metres, it can accommodate up to 17,000 worshippers.
Today, Riyadh is a city where history and innovation coexist. In recent years, to align the city&#8217;s public transport infrastructure with its evolving modern identity, new metro stations with outdoor parking facilities have been created.
A key component of this upgrade was the lighting system, for which Disano fixtures were selected. In particular, Torcia LED luminaires were chosen, being perfectly suited for outdoor environments such as car parks and residential areas. These state-of-the-art LED lighting fixtures not only offer significant energy savings but also deliver great colour rendering, ensuring optimal visibility and comfort for the human eye.
The slim profile and clean lines of this streetlight from Disano provide an elegant and balanced presence, reflecting the refined craftsmanship of Italian excellence. The carefully designed aesthetic allows the fixture to blend seamlessly into any outdoor setting whether integrated into a natural landscape or combined with architectural structures. Every material used has been carefully selected for durability, ensuring the product retains its integrity and appearance over time.
With Disano&#8216;s state-of-the-art lighting system now installed in Riyadh&#8217;s metro parking areas, the results speak for themselves: outstanding visibility that enhances both safety and visual comfort, while also offering environmental protection and remarkable energy savings.
