The Al Mailam Diwaniya Building is prominently located along the King Faisal Motorway (Road-50). It comprises a Reception Lobby, Main Diwaniya, Youth Diwaniya, Dining Hall, Kitchen and Services rooms.

The general architectural concept is reminiscent of a typical Bedouin tent. The walls are slightly inclined like that of the stretched fabric of a tent wall and are constructed from precast concrete, with the roof in cast-in-situ concrete.
