Project Brief

Located on Raha Island beside the existing Old Gateway Building, the new residential complex was envisioned as a contemporary landmark marking the entry to the semi-island.

The design task was to create a tower that merges urban sophistication with coastal serenity, forming a seamless dialogue between the built environment and the lagoon. The project aimed to offer residents exceptional views, privacy, and a strong sense of connection to the water.

The building reinterprets coastal living through rhythm and layered geometry. Sharp slab edges and staggered balconies create a dynamic silhouette and frame views toward the lagoon. Corner apartments evoke yacht-like terraces with sweeping panoramas, while ground-level chalets open directly onto the waterfront for the most immersive experience. The podium anchors the development with landscaped terraces, an infinity pool, gym, clubhouse, and children’s play area — spaces that foster both community and calm. Each residence is oriented to capture natural light and vistas, shaping a landmark where movement, geometry, and tranquility converge.​

"The project's urban location naturally led us to explore the city's pulse. We wanted to bring that vibrant energy inside and let it guide every design decision, creating interiors that feel light, open, and welcoming for both families and single residents."
