Cover Project: SURREAL at EXPO 2020 (Dubai, UAE)

In a city infused with adventure and innovation, United Arab Emirate's EXPO2020 holds SURREAL, an experience unlike any other on the planet. Here near the heart of the Expo, native textures and mysterious forces converge to blur the boundary between natural and man-made. Within its circular plaza, visitors are surrounded by the sights and sounds of a three-hundred-meter long, fifteen-meter-high wall over which tumbling, frothy waves of water fall.  Encompassed by the hypnotic water-walls, guests witness a celebratory performance of colored flames igniting in rhythmic combustion effects, highlighting the musical water show that surrounds them.

Multi-Family

Cover Project: Mysore Meadows Residential (Mysore, India)

The main entry to the site is branded by a single signature grand tree gateway, enhancing the identity of the community.  As you enter, there is a framed view of the rolling meadows beyond.  The central palm lined drive winds through the rolling. hills and ties all the residences badk to the Great Meadow and central clubhouse. 

Taking advantage of the ideal local climate, the character of the architecture blurs the indoor and outdoor spaces to evoke a resort quality experience and provide natural light and ventilation.

Office

Cover Project: COMMERCE SQUARE OFFICES (Gurgaon, India)

The challenge was to allow both of the towers to read as integral to the whole, while conceptually having the volumes linking across the plaza.  The lower tower offers more efficient floor plates, while the taller tower provides the exclusive views, each having values that cater to a range of clientele.

The lobbies were both designed to open up to the exterior square as a space expanding to the outdoors. In the evenings, a golden warm light radiates from each of the entries into the plaza.

Retail

Cover Project: JURRASIC TRIANGLE (Damascus, Syria)

Located in one of the oldest cities in the world, a primary challenge for the project was maintaining the historic culture within a highly themed modern retail entertainment venue.

The overall planning concept organized the built structures into two wings each entry catering to different age groups which all flanks a central welcoming park. The approach with the primary elevation facing the highway was to capture the attention of drivers by offering a community park like experience with the commercial center as backdrop rising up to the main atrium in the center.  Each entry lures attention from the adjacent road with life-size dinosaur scultptures and engages guests within the plaza.  The unique site configuration lead to the project's name, Jurrasic Triangle, which became a concept carried out to other aspects of the architectural, interior and landscape designs.

Mixed-Use
