Award winning, LEED Gold targeted Arya Residence, is due for completion, the first quarter of 2014. Tower 2 has been launched after strong sales from Tower 1, have seen over 70% of apartments sold off the plan, in a short period of time.

Facade treatments are well under way at Arya, with options provided for the horizontal louvres to feature at the top of the building. Mock-ups of the sun shading devices, will be provided on site, to evaluate the best colour fit for the building. The light colouring of the building was designed, to best reflect the strong heat loads on the building, prevalent in the Philippines.

With Arya Residence LEED Gold and BERDE certification targets, as well as the signature 180 Brisbane, commercial office tower, 6 Star Green Star target, Crone Partners are becoming renowned for their expertise in Green Building Design.

This photograph shows a balcony detail at Arya Residence located in Fort Bonifacio Global City in the Philippines. Arya was designed by Bob Stephenson and myself in 2009. It was wonderful to see the building under construction in August 2012 when I visited for a “topping off” celebration for tower 1 (When the tower reached its maximum height – 40 levels). The balcony is splayed and notched at the ends of the building creating a vertical line, emphasising and dramatising the height of the tower. The balcony is made of pre cast concrete panels with a paint finish. The photograph shows the pre cast panel before paint was applied and I wish we were able to convince the client this was an appropriate finish. A pre cast polished concrete panel with a white oxide mix to the cement and white stone aggregate with an exterior weather coating. Now wouldn’t that be nice?
