MODULAR
THE BUILDING USE REINFORCED CONCRETE FOR ITS STRUCTURE. IT USED LATERAL LOAD BEARING WALLS. THE CENTRAL CORE HOUSES LIFTS AND OTHER SERVICES. ALSO PROVIDES THE MAIN STRUCTURAL ELEMENT FOR RESISTING LATERAL LOADS. THE BUILDING HAVE THE IMAGE OF WESTERN BUILDING BECAUSE OF CHARLES CORREA EDUCATION YEARS IN THE WESTERN COUNTRY
THE UNITS IS SORT OF INTERLOCKING WITH EACH OTHER LIKE A PUZZLE. 2 OUT OF 4 UNITS IS FACING THE ARABIAN AND THE OTHER 2 ARE FACING THE HARBOUR.THE APARTMENTS PROVIDE ABILITY FOR THE USER TO CHOOSE WHICH UNIT SUITS THEIR STYLE AND NEEDS.
TRANSPARENCY
REDUCE VIEW OBSTRUCTION BY USING LESS PARTITION. THIS WILL INCREASE INTERACTION BETWEEN FAMILY MEMBERS. BUT IT WILL GIVE LESS PRIVACY TO THE OCCUPANTS. TO ACHIEVED THIS KIND OF TRANSPARENCY, LARGE OPENINGS AND TERRACE GARDEN HAVE BEEN USED.

CONCLUSION
+ VARIETY OF CHOICES TO FULFILL DIFFERENT NEEDS FROM DIFFERENT CLIENTS.
BETTER RESPONSE TO CLIMATE CAN REDUCE THE EXTRA COST TO ACHIEVE COMFORT. TRADITIONAL ARCHITECTURE IS STILL VALID TO REFER.
MODULAR COSTRUCTION WILL REDUCE THE ERECTION TIME AND REDUCE THE COST. CAN BE ACHIEVED USING IBS CONSTRUCTION
RESPONDING TO SITE CONTEXT BY UTILISING ALL OPPORTUNITIES AND CONSTRAINTS SUCH AS VIEWS AND PREVAILING WIND
