Capital Centre reveals landmark towers

Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company (ADNEC) has revealed two distinctive commercial and residential towers by SinoGulf Investments that architecturally mimic the movement of sand dunes. The towers will be key features of the AED8 billion Capital Centre development underway surrounding Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.

Designed by world-renowned architects, Woods Bagot Woods Bagot is a global studio specialising in design and consulting that operates across four regions: Australia, Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Within each of these regions studios are staffed with both local and international designers and specialists in the areas of , the towers represent the abstraction of dune dune, mound or ridge of wind-blown sand formed in arid regions and along coasts. Dunes are common in most of the great deserts of the world. Often a dune begins to form because material is deposited by the wind as it encounters a bush, a rock, or other obstacle to  sand lines when the desert breeze blows. The concept design has been based on simplicity of form that is responsive and respectful of its environment and orientation, setting an aesthetic benchmark for the Capital Centre development.

Upon completion in the last quarter of 2010, the commercial and residential developments will offer a high quality finish, extensive amenities, ample parking, high-speed lifts and retail outlets retail outlet npunto de venta

The towers are situated in a prime location on the corner of Al Karama Street and adjacent to the exhibition centre, with non-obstructing north facing views. The towers are strategically placed with easy access to other commercial, hospitality, entertainment, transport and residential facilities.

Andrew Clout, Managing Director of SinoGulf Investments, commented:

These elements create the perfect environment for SinoGulfCOs investment needs. Our development and Capital Centre will act as catalysts for each other, with both enriching the living experience of the tenants Co upon completion this will be the place everyone will want to be.C[yen]

Sanjay Tanna, ADNEC Business Development Director, added:

C[pounds sterling]The prestigious Capital Centre development adjacent to the Exhibition Centre will no doubt aid some of the demand for both residential and commercial accommodation currently evident within the Emirate e·mir·ate

 of Abu Dhabi. On completion of the second phase of the exhibition facilities at ADNEC this year, this demand for quality accommodation will become even more unprecedented. Rental properties and serviced apartments in Abu Dhabi are achieving strong rates and occupancy levels Co a clear shortage of accommodation exists for executives. SinoGulf has recognised the demand for high-end living and has created an A grade investment opportunity.C[yen]
