This mixed-use development project designed by Adrian Smith and Gordon Gill is composed of six curving towers covered in a solar-powered canopy, with hanging gardens and reflecting pools below which act as thermal sinks. Inspired by the Middle East’s ancient and modern souks, 'Park Gate' will serve as a place to rest, socialize and do business in the heart of Dubai.
Park Gate is set to be a 4.7 million sq ft project that will include offices, retail space and a hotel. Its 6 gently curved towers will be grouped in pairs and covered with a light weight vaulted canopy overhead to provide shade for the interior, reducing the ground temperatures by 10-15 degrees. Solar panels cover the roof of the canopy providing renewable energy for the development and also provide structure for the hanging trellises and gardens. The hanging gardens are watered with a water-efficient gray water misting system and help cool the surrounding air. Oriented to reduce solar heat gain and to receive optimum natural ventilation in the form of sea breezes, the arched structure will provide a shady and cool respite from the desert sun. Balconies on the interior of the arches look down on the cool gardens and reflecting pools below. The salt-water pools act as a thermal sink, absorbing heat during the day and releasing it back during the night. Drought tolerant vegetation is planted throughout the gardens and indigenous, salt-water-tolerant plants are planted near the pools, which reduces potable water use.
This page is very informative and fun to read. I appreciated what you have done here. I enjoyed every little bit part of it.

ReplyDeleteIn Saudi Arabia, the nurse salary range is determined by factors such as experience, education, and the type of healthcare facility.
