SmartCity Malta has 'unveiled' two new office blocks, SCM02 and SCM03 as work continues at a fast pace at Ricasoli.
In a statement issued in Dubai, SmartCity said the blocks have dual frontages with their main lobbies facing the urban ring road and retail promenade. An expansive atrium connecting both buildings forms a gateway leading into the central lagoon retail district.
SmartCity said the buildings are designed as a continuous curved trapezoid offering uninterrupted panoramic views of the lagoon district. Their proximity to SCM01 creates an ideal cluster concept and synergy between the buildings.
From the third level onwards, SCM02 and SCM03 are bridged together into a unified structure of seven floors. The ground floors on both buildings are dedicated retail spaces with their upper floors catering to office space.
The buildings’ envelope is composed of curtain walls sun shading devices and stone cladding. Such systems will exhibit a large range of performance, in terms of thermal insulation, visible light transmittance and solar factor maintaining SCM01’s green building approach.
