Anchoring the intersection of the waterfront and road bridge leading to the Business Bay in Dubai, the 29-storey Tamweel Tower is conceived as an iconic landmark which offers premium office space at this strategic location. With seven levels of carparking and two levels of retail and F&B outlets, the remaining twenty stories of office accommodation is divided into five stacks of four floors each. Using a corner as hinge, each stack is pivoted from the floor below. The trapezoidal upper floor plans are made up of a 3 × 5 matrix of structural modules. While the rectangular central services, stair and lift core remains vertical, this composition allows for five basic variations in the floor plate. The tower is clad in silver reflective curtain walling with a shimmering aluminium sunscreen envelope to the podium. A colonnade at ground level allows access to the waterfront promenade.
