Office Tower | Kensington Tower | Dubai, United Arab Emirates | PT Group

The Kensington Krystal is essentially an office building with a small amount of retail space. The design concept of the tower is to create a unique landmark by adopting the idea of a dynamic "black crystal", which is very rare and valuable, standing at the marina harbor.

The tower envelope is carefully crafted to carry through this idea to form a series of harmonic proportions.

This grade A office tower will incorporate all the latest intelligent building features including building Automation System, Office/Communication System like raised floor and high-speed back bone network, Security and Fire Automation Systems etc.
