Architect Middle East – May 2019

L

ocated in the heart of Dubai’s Downtown area, the

Address Residence Fountain Views, designed by

regional architecture firm Dewan Architects + En-

gineers with associates DP Architects and Atkins,

is a set of three mixed-use buildings perched atop a multi-

level podium.

Designed for Emaar Properties, one of the UAE’s leading

developers, Fountain Views is one of the most recent addi-

tions to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed Boulevard, a wind-

ing circular road that’s home to Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall and

Souk Al Bahar.

An extension to the Dubai Mall, the project contains a po-

dium with three floors of retail and nine levels of parking,

while above this sits a mix of service apartments (783 units in

total) and a five-star, 193-key Address Hotel. The three build-

ings are connected via the podium as well as a bridge that also

links back to the mall.

According to Yann Pennes, projects director at Dewan,

the architects were tasked with creating a project design of

“unique character” while providing the maximum efficiency

in use. This was achieved by designing the towers’ façades to
