Al Mana Group Headquarters Qatar | SunFrame Aluminum Mashrabiya Façade

Project Overview

Project Name: Mohamed Hamad Al Mana Group Headquarters

Project Scope: Full Façade Supply & Installation

Consultant: DSG / MZP

Location: Salwa Road, Doha, Qatar

Façade System: 3,200 m² Straight & Curved Mashrabiya

The Mohamed Hamad Al Mana Group Headquarters stands as a clear expression of architectural identity and corporate character, with its façade system undertaken by SunFrame. The system is a complex mashrabiya composition featuring both straight and curved geometries, covering about 3,200 m², and produced through CNC-machined aluminum extrusions.

Design & Engineering Highlights

Mashrabiya Façade System

The mix of straight and curved aluminum fins gives a modern twist to traditional screen design — a key way to improve both the look and the shading performance of the façade.

CNC-Machined Aluminum Extrusions

Using CNC machining, SunFrame shaped each aluminum profile to guarantee each piece matched perfectly in look and fit once installed on the façade.

Composite Façade Strategy

The mashrabiya panels complement the curtain wall, providing initial shading while the glass behind maintains brightness and openness.

Contextual Adaptation

Given the building’s location on Salwa Road, exposure to strong sunlight, glare, and high ambient temperatures were central design drivers. SunFrame’s system addresses these through geometry, orientation, and material choices.

Construction & Installation Process

Prefabrication Stage

Aluminum extrusions were produced off-site to tight tolerances. This prefabrication allowed for high-quality finishes and improved installation efficiency.

On-site Assembly

The curved mashrabiya sections were assembled on site. Precision alignment and secure connections were critical for seamless transitions between straight and curved zones.

Quality Assurance

Installation quality checks ensured panel alignment, joint integrity, and finish consistency. Visual alignment and shadow pattern testing were conducted prior to final commissioning.

Performance & Finishes

Solar Control

The aluminium mashrabiya blocks solar heat and glare, lowering cooling loads and keeping interiors comfortable.

Durability

Each part was coated with high-grade, coastal-grade finishes that stand up to humidity, salt spray, and UV damage.

Visual Identity

The crisp white-finish aluminium fins contrast with the building’s glazing, creating a bold architectural rhythm and unified brand presence.

Outcome & Significance

The Mohamad Hamad Al Mana Group Headquarters façade achieves a refined balance between technical performance and aesthetic expression. SunFrame’s integrated approach demonstrates capability in both complex fabrication and high-precision installation. The Al Mana Group Headquarters reflects how design and performance can work hand in hand — turning architectural vision into a climate-smart, branded landmark.

SunFrame is proud to have contributed to this journey and continues to bring advanced façade solutions to projects around the world.
