L
ocated as the centerpiece of the
Sudirman Central Business District
(SCBD) in the heart of the business
and financial district of Jakarta, the design
of Signature Tower Jakarta sets a high
standard of luxury development and
accommodation. It is a well-integrated
tower and mixed-use development, with
state-of-the-art architectural design that
is efficient, functional and iconic.Cutting edge standards
As the design has evolved, the small
building footprint and appropriate floor
areas help to minimise and optimise the
use of land and precious building materials.
In return, the efficient floor plans help to
maximise usable rental space and therefore
the owner’s return on investment.
The design of the development
considers issues related to the environment
and sustainable design, such as striving to
reduce the amount of energy consumed
(through thoughtful selection of materials
and building systems) and maximise the
use of recycled materials.“The sheer size of the building means it will have an impact
on the city skyline and the immediate surrounding area. From
a planning viewpoint, the development is in the heart of the
CBD – it is intended to be the heart of the city – not only during
business hours but after – and is designed to have pedestrian
access from mass transit – to counter the stifling traffic jams
that currently exist. The city is a modern metropolis, and design
of the building is such that it will lead but also
reflect the energy and style of the city. This is
accomplished through the form of the tower
and use of building materials.”
