SECTIONS
-The building sections were the most important detail in the design process.
-The section, through the terraces explains the buildings spatial qualities at its best.
-The spatial drama is created by the receding terraces that seem to invite the elements right
to its core.
-The green relief and visual connect at upper levels, is both exciting and enthusing.

one on the fifth floor which is the
business club :

serviced by its own set of lifts, connecting

north light into the atrium and limiting
energy use. With 9896 of the lighting being LED, Avasa is a
highly environment friendly property
STRUCTURAL SYSTEM:
For the grand ballroom, a post tensioned slab of 300mm

thickness was conceived to create shallow
beams and provide more clear height. A vierendel frame
structural system was used for the stepped
terrace to make them self supporting . The Sky bar also
uses a three floor vierendeel frame system.
This was used as there were large spans from 14m to 2Sm.
MATERIALS USED:
Stones used for flooring throughout the property have

been sourced from local sites within the
state, reducing the carbon footprint. Aluco-bond cladding
was deliberately kept to the bare
minimum.
