Khartoum Residential
KHARTOUM RESIDENTIAL As this 4-storey mid-rise is located on a corner plot, the building has two public faces facing the streets. Although, each face is designed to specifically address the scale of the related street, and the faces are not symmetrical with each other, they are designed to read as a whole by using one primary material and consistent simple detailing. The two sides come together at the corner, forming a building-high gap, which marks the main entrance. The program of the building includes a fully equipped gymnasium and a rooftop swimming pool and garden, among the apartments and loft units with terraces.

THE TWIST TOWER
A combination of residences, retail and offices vertically layered within a 110-storey spiraling skyscraper will distinguish the Twist Tower as a building that will be talked about throughout the Middle East. The sheer scale and design of the Tower structure will create a distinct icon on the skyline, its shimmering blue glass and steel exoskeleton exhibiting a unique sense of lightness, translucency and perspective. Around its podium base three main entrances have been created to ensure effective circulation for both residents and day to day users. The typical floor plan of the Tower is a perfect geometric square with a circular core, spiraling vertically.
