ARCHITECTURE

The Facade Depressions and protrusions in the façade plays an important role since majority of the dead walls remains under shadow thereby reducing the surface radiation.

The Plan Configuration The building is designed with 72 rooms facing the atrium, therefore these rooms ae not directly exposed to the external elements thus reducing the heat load.

Natural Lighting In The Atrium This has been achieved by skylight as an architectural element, detailed in a manner of doubly layered domes to reduce heat load and noise levels yet admitting maximum natural light in the atrium space.

Roof Top The swimming pool is located on the rooftop wit h4 feet of water body, which acts as an insulator from the heat. KoolDeck is applied around the swimming pool deck to reduce the glare and the surface temperature so that one can walk barefooted around the pool.
