| Sitting
in the heart of Jumeirah Lakes, Dubai
Arch offers magnificent views of the
lake and of Jumeirah Islands.
The
Dubai Arch has been designed to embody
the environment while creating anew
landmark, instilling pride in its residents
as to their place in the Community.
Clad in granite, the Towers podium creates
a rich presentation to the street and
lake scaled to provide interest to passing
sailors through a series of various
roof heights and cornices lines. The
Entrance to the Tower will provide a
human scaled feature Contrasted with
the super scaled forty story tower.
From
the Entrance, a hall leads up to the
Building Elevators, creating a human
scaled backdrop.
The Tower has been articulated not only
to create a variety of views but to
establish a series of inter-related
lively elements. Expressed as sweeping
arm on the curvilinear facades, this
further accentuates the slenderness
of these elements, while expressed horizontal
balcony features on the façade
provide a counter balance. The Arch
has been scaled to create a simple but
powerful conclusion to the two solid
elements expressed independently, both
delicately and with power.
