Al Mouj Golf in Oman, regarded by many as one of the Middle East’s finest golf courses, has for the second time retained its designation as a “Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary” through the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Programme for Golf Courses, an Audubon International programme. The golf course was first designated as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary in 2014, becoming the first golf course in the Middle East and North African (MENA) region to be certified. Al Mouj Golf has now achieved this distinction three times, thanks to the eco-friendly management approach of the wider team and the practices they have adopted toward the maintenance of the club as a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife. These efforts have been escalated by the Al Mouj Golf team, who have conducted regular assessments of the facility to ensure it has once again been recognised for the third time by Audubon International for environmental stewardship in 2020.
The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Programme for Golf Courses, endorsed by the United States Golf Association, provides information and guidance to help golf courses preserve and enhance wildlife habitat, and protect natural resources. Golf courses from the United States, Africa, Australia, Canada, Central America, Europe, Mexico, and Southeast Asia have achieved certification in the programme.
DZ Design was commissioned by Fortes Education to redesign the administration area of Regent International School centrally located in Emaar’s Greens in the Emirates Living community. The brief was to turn the administration area into an exciting collaborative and open space that reflects the ethos of bold innovation in STEAM and Positive Education that Regent is famous for.
The new design forms a fresh and individual space that reflects Regent’s culture and values and gives their staff, and students a strong sense of belonging. During the planning stage, the board of directors along with the staff were greatly involved in the decision-making process by expressing their needs and favoured use of the space as well as their preferences in furniture, material, and colour choices.
The portable poufs and beanbags allow students to shape the space according to their individual needs. Additionally, a toilet was added which has a funky leaf print as the main wall feature. The glass has graphics – including the mission statements of the school – placed along the walls, creating a strong sense of engagement.
