Parallel worlds as a design concept

The concept draws on the metaverse and the possibility of moving between different worlds. Aurora-inspired light and color introduce a sense of wonder, translating distant natural phenomena and mythological associations into an indoor entertainment setting.

An immersive visitor experience

The project connects spatial design with interactive and sensory experiences. Its narrative is expressed through atmosphere, light, color and the relationship between attractions, inviting visitors to explore an environment beyond everyday space. This project illustrates ONDO's approach to theme park design within SARAAJ, where storytelling informs the architecture and the visitor journey.
