18/02/2019 Argaam

 

Serving as the new headquarters for Al Abdul Karim Holding (AKH), the new 37-storey tallest building in Dammam opened for business on Feb. 17.

 

Designed and supervised by Dewan Architects + Engineers, the design of the AKH Tower – with its glass, geometric patterns and soaring height serves as memorable landmark for all to navigate by.

 

Offering prime office space with unrestricted views, most of the office space is reserved for AKH’s own use, but several floors are available for tenant companies.

 

The tower is equipped with a state-of-the-art telecommunication system, a CCTV system, access control system, energy-saving system, computer-based building management system (BMS), a sophisticated Data Center and an advanced audiovisual system for the conference rooms.

 

The tower also has its own backup standby electricity generator and a built-in uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Ample car parking is available in the basement and across seven levels of the podium.

 

“The tower’s façade and slanting volumes make for arresting lines and configurations within the interior, creating distinctive and dynamic office spaces on every floor, which allows the building to cater to numerous companies with varying spatial needs,” Ammar Al Assam, executive director of Dewan Architects + Engineers, said.
