Eighth Gate Office Building

Eighth Gate Office Building

Project Overview

Location

Damascus, Syria

Project Type

Commercial

The office building forms an integral part of the Eighth Gate Development and is strategically located on the main Piazza. The design takes full advantage of its prominent location, where the building addresses the open square in a monumental fashion.

Two office blocks are unified by a single architectural frame that wraps around the buildings, creating the distinctive gate-like structure from which the development takes its identity.

The bold architectural expression establishes a strong presence within the wider masterplan while the efficient internal planning provides flexible contemporary office accommodation, creating a landmark commercial destination within the Eighth Gate Development.
