TOTAL WORKING ENVIRONMENT The BCD is a landmark in the heart of the commercial and the financial district of Jakarta City. The building commands a choice of location, along Jalan Jend. Sudirman, one of the prominent boulevard. Strategically, it makes the best of panoramic views for the occupants and it is also very noticeable as a distinguished urban form from the highway interchange further South and the surrounding.
IDENTITY The building design captures the unique quality of
the site with a land mark tower, highligthed by a stark facade of slick
aluminum cladding complimented by bards of horizontal cool grey tinted
windows which provide 360 degrees views.
The BCD building is also a very approachable tower.
The impressive "drive-throughdrop-off"offers a formal and a well
sheltered arrivals for the visitors of the building. The main entrance is
highlighted by a 3-storey atrium space over the drop-off. The horizontal pattern of the glass and aluminum
finishes lines both walls of the grand entrance concourse., and, at your
feet, polished marble slabs guide you to intimately scaled lift lobby. The clear glass and cool grey aluminum paneling in the concourse, enhance by the polished marble floor, create an interesting interplay of shadow and light. |
An interesting "notch" into the building
facade at the entrance way carries up the building, breaking it's smooth
clean facade, and climaxes at the sky garden, the first of it's kind in
Jakarta. The sky garden at the executive floors, with lush green and
inclined glass facade reinforces the "landmark" concept by
further catching viewers attention from the surrounding.
