Background Information
A design proposal for a Corporate Headquarter for a foreign MNC is located in the vicinity of KLCC. Various designs were made to suit and provide the most efficient office space which also include high atrium lobby with specialty retail facilities, cafeteria and parking facilities to compliment the nearby buildings especially the KLCC Convention Centre. Public and private entrances were also required by the users. Three proposals of various designs were produced on the 2.5 acres site along Jalan Pinang.

Design Approach
In this design, a 50-storey Corporate Office Tower is proposed with a grand 5-storey atrium lobby with some specialty retail outlets. The grand atrium lobby is opened up to a landscaped courtyard which serves as a linkage to the nearby KLCC Convention Centre.

Apart from the metal cladding and glass curtain wall facade, a layer of aesthetically designed sun-shading enclosure is being introduced to the whole tower providing a unique identifiable overall structure or building that can be seen from the vicinity of KLCC as well as the KL skyline.

Erm, that site looks like the location of site D1...

50-storeys? :?

Looks more like 30+ to me ;)

ANyway nice location and hopefully this building would be well integrated to the existing complexes around it :yes:

it looks like that old lot D design.. quite nice! :cool:

I think they have to fix that render, I was counting it, it was only like 40 to 38 ?
Anyway, really nice looking building, i look forward to for it to be built.

maybe the cladding glass height all the way is 50 storey lol

next to the new grand hyatt right ?

yeah. should be.

It look nice but how come those new towers around KLCC and Bukit Bintang nowadays are only 40-50 floors? KL skyline will only become flatter when they are completed.

Because of height limitation imposed by the city hall. Please check the KL Structural Plan 2020.

What is the reason of imposing a height limit for a building there while KLIA is far away and you have other buildings taller than 50 storeys? I guess they just don't want to see another tower taller than the Petronas Towers, huh?

I thought the height limit applies to buildings around KLCC area.....is it?

2020 mission is just 13 years after this, but let's hope after 2020...
How KL's akyline would looks like?

KL has a plan of Utopia by veritas (http://www.veritas.com.my/) already!

KLIA? Of course it is far away. That's not the reason.
City Hall plans to keep buildings around the Twin Towers at least 100m shorter not to block them when viewed from all angles.

And isn't KL Convention Centre just next to KLCC area?

^^

Em, yeah....that's right.......

I would think the KLCC area skyline will look balanced with the 50/60 storeys buildings being planned throughout that area....
