Located at one of the most visible urban intersections and designed as one of the outstanding landmarks in Manama with total area of 30,000 sq.m. The architecture of Al Zamil Tower is derived from the traditional character – sophisticatedly expressed at the lower level responding to the nearby old buildings. It rises gracefully in a modernistic configuration adorned with transformed Islamic motifs to claim its place in the city. The project signifies the harmonious combinations between tradition and modernity, a vision GHE has strived to promote.
Massing, materials, and elements collectively present an innovative architectural statement anchored in the heritage of Bahrain. Linking the two towers by a bridge across Al Khalifa road creates a gateway to the Manama souq and adds to the monumentality of the buildings.
