In Morooj, the land is specifically zoned for residential use with two primary types of housing allowed:
Detached Villas Private, stand-alone residences for single families.
Construction & Height Permits
The building regulations in Morooj offer flexibility while maintaining a cohesive skyline:
Permitted Height: You are allowed to build Ground + 1st Floor + 50% of the Roof area.
Roof Utilization: The 50% allowance on the roof level can be used for additional living space, a gym, or a maid's room, while the remaining 50% serves as an open roof terrace.
Clean Geometry: The design focuses on rectangular and square forms, avoiding traditional ornaments, domes, or arches.
Large Glazing: The use of floor-to-ceiling glass windows is highly encouraged on the front and back facades to maximize natural light and connect the interior with the garden.
Flat Roofs: Roofs must be flat with wide, dominant overhangs (fascia) to provide shade and a modern aesthetic.
Side Wall Privacy: Walls facing neighbors must have minimal windows. "Slit windows" (narrow vertical openings) are recommended to allow light without compromising privacy.
Terraces: You can design covered terraces above the garage area, providing extra outdoor space while maintaining the villa's modern silhouette.
Primary Colors: The community identity is tied to a sophisticated palette of White and Cool Grays.
Materials: High-quality plaster, smooth paint, and natural stone cladding (for stair towers or entrance features) are encouraged.
