In the packed city center, the streets become the public open space, where you have shops, hawkers spilling onto the street, buskers, performances and people out enjoying the street life. The street becomes the life center and having a proper façade to address the street becomes important. As much as the street façade identifies the building, the façade contributes to the street elevation and atmosphere. It contributes to creating the urban identity and giving a sense of place to the street. siting and massing of buildings will contribute to and reinforce the comfort, safety, and amenity of the public roads.
And so the whole ground floor of the Dorsett Residences that faces the street is given way to the lobby. With a 9 meter ceiling height, it is a huge glass lobby that is easily seen from the street. The transparency of the lobby presents a friendly face to the street and the high drop off roof provides a welcoming space. And at night, it becomes a wonderful chandelier of lighted space that lends its light to the street, where the light is soft and creates a subtle connection between the street and the building.
The tall silhouette of the Dorsett Residences building will contribute to the city skyline and towards the character of the city. However, in bringing back the residential tower typology to the city, we risk upsetting its commercial neighbours. There need to be a neutral intervention into that segment of the city. The Dorsett Residences need to enter the neighbourhood with style and verve. It must not be seen as inferior to its neighbours. It must be able to stand up, assert itself but not stand out, aloof. The solution balanced the need for neutral intervention with a solid strong presence by keeping the form of the building simple, a tall rectangular box. By doing so, it does not compete with its more eclectic neighbours. Then to make the building looks strong with a solid presence, the colour black is used that gives strength to the shape.
The building needs to address the street properly so that it may appropriately present the building’s and Residences Identity. The design aesthetics of curtain walling that expresses clean lines and sleek glass surfaces is known for providing a modern and urbane appearance. And so the frontage faces the street in a quiet, dignified and confident manner.
Different sides addresses different issues and with different articulation. The north-east elevation (right) has a view towards KLCC. This elevation is addressed with open balconies that extend out from the bedrooms. The balconies are wrapped in glass that continue from the front façade.
The south-west elevation faces the Dorsett Regency hotel and so is more solid with less openings and balconies.
