Keturah Al Ain: Redesigned Masterplan This document outlines the redesigned masterplan for Keturah Al Ain, guided by the new project doctrine and the Keturah brand DNA. 1. Masterplan Vision: The Fifth Kingdom The masterplan is a physical manifestation of the Fifth Kingdom, a place where the four dimensions of wellness converge. It is a landscape of serenity, community, and vitality, designed to enhance the well-being of its residents. 2. Land Use Allocation (167 Buildable Acres) The 167 buildable acres are allocated according to the locked program, with a focus on creating a balanced and integrated community.

The Blue Belt: The Project's Spine The Blue Belt is the central organizing feature of the masterplan. It is a continuous ecological and recreational corridor that weaves through the project, connecting all the different land uses. It is the physical manifestation of the Marine Kingdom, bringing water, life, and serenity to the heart of the desert. 4. The Four Kingdoms in the Masterplan • The Marine Kingdom (Keturah Resort): The 5-star wellness resort is located at the heart of the Blue Belt, with stunning water views and direct access to the project's main recreational features. • The Terrestrial Kingdom (Keturah Reserve): The residential clusters are designed as intimate, walkable neighborhoods, with a focus on natural materials, lush landscaping, and a seamless connection to the surrounding nature. This is where the Bio-Living philosophy comes to life. • The Celestial Kingdom (Keturah Ardh): The community facilities, including schools, clinics, and retail, are clustered together to create a vibrant social hub, fostering a strong sense of community and connection. • The Ethereal Kingdom (Keturah Bahr): The farm plots and more secluded villa plots are located at the edges of the project, offering a greater sense of privacy and a closer connection to the natural desert landscape, providing a space for spiritual retreat and contemplation. 5. Mobility & Connectivity The masterplan prioritizes pedestrian and bicycle movement, with a network of shaded pathways and dedicated cycling lanes. A fleet of autonomous electric vehicles will provide on-demand transportation within the community, minimizing the need for private cars. This redesigned masterplan provides a clear and compelling vision for Keturah Al Ain, a place where luxury, wellness, and nature converge to create a truly unique living experience.
