The challenge of the project was to seek and employ innovative construction systems with the objective of maximizing working time on site, reduce costs and generate less waste.
The system of pre-stressed concrete slab was chosen in order to provide more flexibility in the internal layout of the units and increase their free span. The facades were built with building shell system,which were covered with the ceramic tiles and the granite panels outside the building site.
Project Photos (Design Landed)
The main corner is characterized by a rounded balcony allowing stunning views of the city.
All the facades were clad with granite and shades of green which are in harmony with the ceramic tiles displayed in specific places, thus providing a visual unit to the external finishing.
In the entrance Hall a double height ceiling creates a grand entry in a room where the floor and walls are coated with marble and granite in a design that makes up the space and suits the grandeur of the construction.
