Limitless

Limitless LLC

Dubai, UAE

200,000 square meters

Limitless, a major mixed-use development, is the first realized under the new Jebel Ali Downtown Master Plan.  The development consists of four office towers facing a major motorway between Dubai and Abu Dhabi.  An interconnected glass and metal screen, which appears to float in front of the facades, spans the approximate quarter mile length of all four structures, visually uniting the buildings and creating the effect of a "horizontal tower."  

The development offers 90,000 square meters of office space, supported by first floor retail.  Each building also features two levels of subterranean parking, as well as a second floor devoted to showroom-style VIP parking facilities.  The lobbies are designed with all-natural materials such as wood and marble, and feature reflecting pools and water walls.  Emphasis on water and cool tones in public areas creates a refreshing, calming atmosphere in the midst of a desert climate.
