The Brief
High-rise living in the Gulf usually trades greenery for views. The brief: prove an apartment tower can offer both, and do it in a climate where 'vertical forest' concepts routinely fail.
The Concept
Staggered balcony trays rotate around the core, each carrying deep planters with drip-irrigated, heat-tolerant species. The greenery is not decoration; it shades the glazing below it, cutting solar gain where it matters most.
Materials & Light
Exposed concrete trays, integrated planter and irrigation systems, native and adapted planting palette selected for Gulf conditions.
The Outcome
A concept that positions the developer for the UAE's sustainability agenda with architecture that markets itself from street level.
