What to expect in Index Tower, DIFC
The Index Tower is an imposing 80 storey building designed by the world-famous Foster + Partners. This building with its quadruple height ceiling lobby is designed to impress. One of the highest rise buildings in the DIFC area, it stands out with exemplary taste and class. Previously coined One Central Park, the project announced in 2005, was supposed to be the world's tallest residential tower at 326 metres but was quickly put out of the race by the time of its completion in 2011. The tower is a project completed by Union Properties. The building is a mixed-use project, offering a mix of residential, commercial and social uses to support the DIFC. Well located in the DIFC area, this building is an architectural marvel to behold and is one of the most iconic buildings in the city. The Index Tower is located only minutes from some of the city’s best restaurants in Gate Avenue, it is also extremely close to Downtown Dubai and attractions such as Dubai Mall, Dubai Fountains, Burj Park, and Dubai Opera.
Towering over 80 storeys, the building can host a small town vertically, with capacity for approximately 6,000 residents and workers on a 20,000 square metre site. The unique sleek, minimalistic design of the Index Tower makes it one of the toppers on our list of most beautiful buildings in Dubai, and of course, one of the most sustainable. The tower is oriented from east to west, so it moves away from the city's axis, thereby reducing sun exposure. During the sweltering summers, the tower's in-house temperature without air-conditioning reportedly will not surpass 28 degrees Celsius.
The four A-frame columns that act as supporting features resemble fins as they cut through the sky, creating a solid infrastructure to the building and giving it a futuristic edge. The base of the building is an exquisitely landscaped podium, offset by sculptural pools of water and an underground car park. The grand entrance of the building spans four whole floors. The residential apartments are accessible through a stunning chrysalis sky lobby. This is noticeable by a slight break in the façade, making the building distinctive. Crowned on top of the building, are exclusive duplex and triplex penthouses. Residents of the tower have ample amenities to choose from, including a lounge, restaurant, pool and health club. Each distinct function of the building is separated by a glazed sky lobby, also visible on the building façade. All floors except the penthouses are accessible by a central lift core. Situated from west to east, the building offers stunning Downtown, coastal and desert views. At the time of its unveiling in 2011, the tower beat several show stopping high rise apartments to win the 'Best Tall Building in the Middle East & Africa' by Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Since then, it has also received the Golden HOSPCA Award in Shanghai.
