Impressive metrics that define
this extraordinary achievement
Technical details
Brief insights about the project
Intelligent Building Design
Incorporates environmentally responsive architecture with buffer spaces between external and air-conditioned areas to minimise solar heat gain.
High Performance Glazing
Uses premium solar glass with a low shading coefficient to reduce internal air temperature and enhance energy efficiency.
Shading Through Balconies
Features balconies on sloping elevations with extended overhangs that provide effective natural shading.
Thermal Insulation Enhancement
Opaque fabric elements are designed with advanced thermal insulation to improve overall building performance.
Environmental Buffer Zones
Strategic spatial buffers help moderate temperature fluctuations and reduce reliance on mechanical cooling systems.
Sustainable Facade Strategy
Combines glazing, shading devices, and insulation to deliver a façade that balances aesthetics with environmental control.
