Serai Wing, Bait Khalid Bin Ibrahim
The Chairperson of Shurooq also surveyed their final construction phase at the Serai Wing, Bait Khalid Bin Ibrahim project, a modern 12-key boutique wing, an extension of The Chedi Al Bait Sharjah, and stressed the importance of investments that enhance the authenticity in historic and heritage buildings, and aid in highlighting aspects of how people lived in the past.
Sheikha Bodour Al Qasimi commended those working at the project for their exemplary efforts and attention to preserving its century-old monumental architecture all the way down to the finest details, while also enhancing the locations with creative modern design, giving visitors a unique experience that blends the aesthetics and authenticity of the past with the majesty and magnificence of the present.
The history of the Khalid bin Ibrahim House dates back to the 20th century when it was the home of a former pearl merchant, and is one of the heritage structures located in the "Heart of Sharjah” area. The house reflects the aesthetic of traditional architecture and design of homes in the UAE, and the Emirate of Sharjah in particular. It implements many architectural elements that are an essential part of Emirati culture and its civilizational heritage. By investing in these heritage sites, Shurooq aims to preserve the culture while attracting investor interest in those that have a passion for historical locations.
