Trump International Hotel &Tower - A Sense Of Glass
26 May 2010
Post Comments
 

Trump Tower Dubai, or The Palm Trump International Hotel and Tower, is slated to be the jewel in the crown that is the Palm Golden Mile – a man-made island, located on the trunk of the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai.

This iconic building is the Trump Organization's first project in the Middle East and has been designed by Atkins architects. This tower will also be among Dubai’s greenest constructions.

Standing at a height of 270 metres, this 62-storey skyscraper hosts a luxury hotel, exclusive residential apartments, a three-storey entrance lobby, boutique offices, a swimming pool, restaurants, a dramatic sky lobby suspended high above a beautiful park, a business centre and so on.

With the ‘split-linked’ design, the towers stand on a four-storey bisected podium structure that houses the main car parking facility. At the tips of the two asymmetric elements sit twin sets of glazed, diamond shaped pinnacle structures that embrace the restaurants and sky bars. A spacious triple volume lobby is suspended between both towers above the park. This lobby is encased within a clear, light weight glazed roof, which gives it an exotic look.

Façade

The façade is nothing short of an awe-inspiring marvel in clear and tinted glass, white and silver aluminium panels, coloured granite and marble-faced blade walls and stainless steel. The vertical spacing of the façade will be based on the floor-to-floor height of 3.6m while the horizontal spacing will be based on a combination of the structural grid and the widths of the bedrooms and living areas to achieve a maximum number of vision bays for each room. Balconies have been restricted to the narrow ends of the floor plates only, allowing the external skin on the main façade to remain part of a sleek and smooth, glazed curtain wall.

Residence Collections

There are 3 collections of residences that have been designed in and around the south towers, namely Platinum, Titanium and Pinnacle collections. These residences incorporate ultra-premium kitchens and baths with finest European cabinetry, appliances and fixtures.
 
Viewing desk and restaurants are situated on the topmost floors of both towers and these will be designed as multi-volume, glazed spaces which will encompass dinning and viewing galleries. This Hotel & Tower will be expected to be completed by the summer of 2011.
