RMJM were appointed as design consultants and project manager for the Marina Heights Tower for The Abdul Salam Al Rafi group. Completed in 2006, the 208 m high, 55-storey building incorporates both commercial and retail space within the podium.
The building utilises the use of sliding timber screens at podium level to allow both introverted and extroverted outlooks from the podium residential units. Pre-cast screens provide solar and wind protection to the side elevations.
