ABOUT US ZAC Associates Ltd is the longest established architectural practice in Mauritius. Founded in 1968 as a partnership between Zulfi and Abbas Currimjee, the firm has grown steadily ever since. Over the years, ZAC Associates Ltd has provided complete architectural consultancy services on a large number of projects of varying nature, size, cost and complexity. Our firm has made a significant contribution in practically all sectors of the built environment ranging from individual houses, residential estate, apartment buildings, offices, retail, markets, banks, civic buildings, factories, hotels, restaurants, sports facilities, schools, university buildings, audio-visual facilities and airport services buildings.
THE PROJECT In 1989 ZAC came out first in the architectural competition to design this building. The brief asked for a high quality office and retail complex comprising basement parking for eighty cars, retail facilities on two levels, restaurant and conference facilities on one level, fifteen floors of offices and a roof-top helipad. The building has many innovative features such as aluminium panel and solar glass cladding to the tower block, mechanically fixed granite cladding to the podium, access flooring, under-floor air conditioning system, building energy management system and a double glazing system which reduces heat gain inside the building thus resulting in lower air conditioning costs.
