NoVi is a design and build company in Riyadh for owners who want a single party accountable for the result. We design your villa or commercial space, fix the scope in a bill of quantities, then deliver finishing, MEP, joinery and furniture to the approved drawings and hand over a space that is ready to live or trade in.
Integrated delivery is how we work across the region: in Egypt we are design and build contractor for The Marquee, a 1,500-seat venue of about 4,675 m², and for Kinda Community Center in Taj City. In the Kingdom our architects have shaped Sumou Al Shabab and Al Akaria Center One in Riyadh and Hilton Embassy Suites in Makkah, and the Riyadh team runs every project under ISO 9001:2015.

01Design & Build in Riyadh
Why choose a design and build company in Riyadh
One point of responsibility
No disputes between designer and contractor over who owns a problem: we own the drawings and the result.
Price fixed from drawings
Execution is priced from the approved BOQ, so every change is visible and agreed before it is built.
Architecture to FF&E
Architectural, interior, MEP, landscape and FF&E design by one coordinated team, with specialist partners for kitchens and joinery.
Faster, overlapping stages
Long-lead items are ordered while drawings are finalised, which a separate design-then-tender route cannot do.
Documented quality and safety
Stage inspections under ISO 9001:2015 and an HSE compliance certificate under Saudi GOSI occupational safety and health requirements.

Design and build projects in the Kingdom and beyond
In Riyadh, our scope on Sumou Al Shabab, a 45,000 m² mixed-use site, ran from concept through design development, façade, public realm and consultant coordination, and on Al Akaria Center One (85,922 m² GFA) we are architectural design and visualisation consultant. In Makkah we designed the architecture and façades of Hilton Embassy Suites, 392 two-room suites. At interior scale, Hassan Café in Riyadh brought 400 m² of design, FF&E and custom joinery together.

How a turnkey project is priced in Riyadh
The biggest drivers are the starting condition, the stone and joinery specification, the majlis and guest wing detail, and whether furniture and smart home are inside the contract. Book a site survey and we will price your villa from its own drawings.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to what clients ask us before a site survey. Not covered here? Ask the team directly.
Ask the teamWhat does a turnkey villa contract in Riyadh include?
Design, shop drawings and BOQ, then partitions, MEP, finishing, joinery, lighting and, if you choose, furniture and smart home, handed over ready to move in. The exact list is fixed in the BOQ you approve.
Do you build from the structure (عظم) or start after it?
Structural and concrete works are carried out by a licensed contractor. We design and coordinate with them from the start, then take over from the completed shell for finishing and handover.
Is the price fixed before works start?
Yes, for the approved scope. The contract is priced from the BOQ, and any change you request is quoted and agreed in writing before it is built.
Can the majlis and guest wing be handed over first?
Often, yes. If you need to host before the whole villa is complete, we can sequence the programme so the guest side is finished first, where the MEP layout allows.
Can furniture, kitchens and smart home be part of the contract?
Yes. We design them with the interiors and deliver them with specialist partners, coordinated and installed by our team, so the villa is handed over furnished and working under the same contract.
Who handles Balady permits on a turnkey project?
We prepare the drawings and coordinate with the licensed engineering office that submits through Balady. Responsibility for each application is written into the contract.
Do you deliver turnkey commercial projects in Riyadh too?
Yes. Offices, cafés and showrooms follow the same single-contract model, with Civil Defense and landlord requirements added; see fit-out in Riyadh.
