The Challenge
Designing a high-rise in a dense tropical city required innovative strategies for energy efficiency and climate control. We needed to mitigate solar gain while maintaining transparency and views, all within a constrained urban footprint.
The Solution
The tower features a high-performance double-skin facade with integrated shading fins that are optimized based on solar orientation. This significantly reduces cooling loads. The podium level engages the street with active retail frontage, while the tower setback creates a public plaza.
