Kayanee

Kayanee, a pioneering fitness and sports lifestyle brand focused on women’s health, has launched a visionary flagship concept store and studio in Riyadh’s Diplomatic Quarter. Designed by Gensler, the store aims to inspire women in the Kingdom with a holistic experience that integrates apparel, exercise, and nutrition under three main pillars — Wear, Learn, and Fitness.

The retail design concept draws from Saudi Arabia’s rich cultural heritage and subtly integrates local elements into a cohesive and luxurious environment. Gentle curves throughout the interior, inspired by the movement of Middle Eastern dances, create a sense of fluidity and warmth with every detail — from ceiling treatments to fixtures — incorporating soft, inviting lines. Materials such as rammed earth and rocks from the surrounding area, as well as locally sourced ceramics and textiles referencing traditional Saudi arts and crafts, create an authentic atmosphere and promote sustainability.

Kayanee is a fully immersive universe, with artfully designed modern facilities, dance studios, products and packaging, a retail space, and an F&B area offering a health-forward dining experience. Exemplifying their commitment to inclusivity is a clothing line tailored specifically for Saudi women that ensures comfortable and appropriate sizing for the region’s body types. The result is a fun, vibrant, and welcoming community hub where women can connect, gain confidence, and express themselves, setting a new benchmark for holistic wellness in Saudi Arabia.
