Scope                : From concept design to completion

The building is located in Oud Metha, Dubai, opposite to American Hospital. The site area is 30,000.00 sft. In accordance with the Client’s vision a 12 storied commercial and residential building is constructed on the site. The ground floor has been zoned to maximize the commercial, restricting the services to the rear end which is less significant in terms of visual and physical connectivity.

 The vertical zoning segregates the commercial activities from the residential, ensuring there is no overlap between the two. The underlying concept of the design proposal is to have apartments that are spacious, functional and contemporary in terms of overall appearance. To achieve the desired room sizes, as well as an effective parking layout in the basement, the structural grid was optimized. The design ensures all habitable spaces get natural light. To achieve this all such spaces are placed on the periphery (except the kitchen and toilets for the central apartments).

Light filters into the corridors through windows provided both ends of the corridors and open to sky area. The design attempts to create landscaped terrace gardens and secure children’s play areas at the podium level. To achieve a higher building within the prescribed setbacks larger setbacks have been left on the front and the rear side. This is in return provides an opportunity to give large terraces to the occupants of the first floor.
