The buildings are set back forming a forecourt. This plaza gathers pedetrians into an “urban corridor” that cuts a path through the city block, creating a human scale at the street, amidst towering buildings. The shops form an “indoor street” sheltered from the tropical weather and links pedestrians from the busy Jalan Ampang to the KLCC park and mosque.

Recognizing its noblesse oblige, a viewing deck and roof-top restaurants enables public access through the usually impervious urban islands of exclusive luxury developments.

Architecture and cultural expression
The curtain wall embodies a distinctive diagonal grain – a recurring leitmotif in indigenous textiles and weaving traditions of Malaysia. Window panels and sun-shading fins form a layered, textured façade reinforcing the diagonal pattern which extends to the interior experience.

The asymmetrical composition of 3 tapering and inter-linked towers creates constantly changing perspectives of the building from different viewpoints.
