P & T Architects wins design project for Shams Abu Dhabi

- January 22, 2007, 4:57 pm

P&T Architects and Engineers Ltd., a Hong Kong based international company employing over 900 staff around the world, have recently opened a new branch in Abu Dhabi to coincide with the award of a major project - the prestigious First Abu Dhabi - Shams on Reem Island.

The development enjoys a central location within the 385 acre Shams Abu Dhabi master plan that is currently being developed by Sorouh as a major urban node within Abu Dhabi City, its new heart and metropolitan center.

According to William Yuen, Director, P & T Architects, ‘We were delighted to win this project as Design Architects which coincided with the opening of our new office in Abu Dhabi. Since 2004 the value of real estate projects announced in Abu Dhabi has exceeded Dhs 380 billion with Shams Abu Dhabi alone valued at Dhs 9.1 billion. Having established ourselves in Dubai we are extremely keen to be a part of this new market.’

This massive comprehensive development consists of two separate adjacent sites with a combined GFA of around 3,500,000 ft2. Primarily residential in nature, almost 2000 flats are provided within 4 main 50-storey high residential towers together with 2 smaller mixed-use blocks. With the population of Abu Dhabi expected to more than double, to 2 million, in the next 10 years there will be an increasing demand for new housing units and this is one of the major projects that will help meet the requirement.

One special feature of this development is that it envisages the first major automated parking system in Abu Dhabi. State of the art technology is utilised to create an extremely efficient parking service for residents and visitors alike which is akin to having personalised valet parking. The system gives the exceptional convenience of being able to drive straight in, drop the car off and then proceed directly to take the lift. The system even allows for the car to be ready and waiting, by registering a smart card when entering the lift.

First Abu Dhabi - Shams is developed by Mayadeen Gulf Estate Company (WLL), a subsidiary of National Ranges Company.
