Project Highlight
Boardwalk linking the amenities.
the Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP)
highway to the site.
One of the design requirements is getting
maximum daylight and optimum views,
therefore individual units are configured in
a circular perimeter layout leaving a hollow
void at the centre of the two tallest towers.
The hollow void made it possible to build
a vertical sky garden reaching up to the full
height of the office and SoVo towers. For
every 16 floors (eight duplex storeys), a full
floor was put in where there is a sky garden.
These are entire ecosystems and there are
four levels of ecosystems within each tower.
The 50-metre-high atrium spaces are open on
both ends, which means that the residents can
enjoy more views.
Although not meant to get ratings under
the Green Building Index (GBI), the design
concept will nonetheless result in a natural
cooling effect with the introduction of
greenery and water features.
Each of the towers has a hybrid helical
or twisted configuration to coincide with
the number of units per floor and to offer
unobstructed views. A separate full helical
twist sky garden feature accentuates each
tower on the south elevation acting also as a
passive solar control device.
On top of the podium on Level 8 are two
levels of leisure pools, mini “super trees”,
tropical plants and all of the SoVo, office and
studio suite facilities. The third smallest tower
will be used as a luxury four-star hotel – and
the developer plans to sign up Accor Group to
manage the operation. The hotel will complete
