Design Response

The towers are angled in relation to one another to improve outward views from the apartments and give each building a clear visual identity. One tower contains serviced apartments ranging from studios to two-bedroom units, while the second accommodates one- and two-bedroom residential apartments. The skybridge provides circulation between the towers while creating an elevated vantage point across Business Bay. At the base, a wraparound podium forms the principal entrance and lobby and establishes an active frontage through integrated dining and retail uses.
