About Next Hub Ionad Ilúsáide

Is coimpléasc ilúsáide é Next Hub in Jeddah, an Araib Shádach, a chomhcheanglaíonn fáilteachas, riarachán, siamsaíocht, miondíol, bia agus deoch, agus criosanna fóillíochta. Fiosraíonn an cumadóireacht an gaol idir solad agus folús. Cuireann toirteanna na bhfoirgneamh plás oscailte lárnach faoi iamh, ag meabhrú margaí traidisiúnta agus ag cruthú taithí uirbeach le hidirghníomhaíocht shóisialta. Tugann cúirteanna inmheánacha aeráil nádúrtha agus solas an lae isteach sna foirgnimh óstáin agus riaracháin. I measc na gcríochnuithe tá cloch travertine snasta, cruach dhubh agus gloine dhúbailte ghloinithe.
