City of Lights
Status: Proposed 2010
VERITAS was commissioned to architecturally design five towers within the City of Lights master plan on Reem Island, Abu Dhabi. Positioned on plots C43-C47, these residential towers range from 45 to 50 stories high. Although collectively envisioned to create a unified architectural identity and cohesive massing, each tower was carefully differentiated to possess unique characteristics. Their sculpted forms were crafted to optimize views while minimizing exposure to east-west orientations. Consequently, the floor plans artfully blend sweeping curved balconies with orthogonally aligned core facades.

Unaizah Resort and Spa
Client: MAB
Status: Proposed 2015
Unaizah Resort and Spa is a retreat proposed within the Qassim Province located at the heart of Saudi Arabia. A perfect combination of rustic elegance and modern comfort, the resort features spacious private bungalows, a luxurious spa, and breathtaking views of the Arabian Desert. Made of clustered arrangements of villas, the architecture of the holiday homes is inspired by Unaizah’s traditional courtyard house design to achieve maximum privacy. Each villa is equipped with a private pool and has access to the attached courtyard, which are connected to the main pedestrian promenade. The dwelling is designed to accommodate for various typologies and occupant’s requirements, in tune with prevalent resorts located within Saudi Arabia and abroad. This is done by sympathetically keeping in mind the experience of the user within the haven. Being in the hot dry desert climate, comfort is a prime factor to ensure that the residents are content and at ease during their retreat.
This is effortlessly achieved by adopting thermal mass construction using natural material such as clay and bricks. The main entry points for vehicles and pedestrian ensures that patrons arrive to an expansive desert view of the National Park situated beyond. Qassim region is abundant in water, thus continuous water body is introduced throughout the sanctuary which acts as veins that supplies life to the development and unifies all components. The water body also improves the microclimate of each cluster and provokes an air of mystery and intimacy for individual assemblage. Being one of the Middle East’s largest producers of dates, the importance of the dates plantation to the region is understood. Thus, immersion of existing date palms as part of the resort’s masterplan is done to create a wholesome an oasis effect for resort.

Menara KLK
Client: Taiko Batu Kawan Holdings Sdn Bhd
Status: Completed 2016
Located within the thriving commercial precinct of Mutiara Damansara, the Batu Kawan Corporate Headquarters, completed in 2009 comprises a 12-storey tower flanked by a 4 storey podium block and 2 stories of basem*nt car parks. This building primarily houses commercial office spaces with retail programs on the ground floor.
Departing from the generic tower-stacked-on-podium typology, the tower’s massing is detached from a semi-circular lower block and connected via a thin double-storey hanging walkway. Proportioning the tower in this way creates a deliberate contrast between the horizontality of the podium and the vertical lines of the tower. The structural ordering
of expressed beams and columns on the tower further enhances this impression, against a bold red feature wall. The resulting U-shaped plan is an opportunity to create a courtyard garden that allows light to infiltrate what would have otherwise been a deep, enclosed floor plan.
One gently becomes aware of these geometric manoeuvres crossing under the steel and glass porte-cochere, to arrive at a lofty entrance foyer. Tempering light levels and visual density are a series of louvers that transform in length, dimension and material expression on the façade. A steel and timber tread feature stairway lures the eye to a thin mezzanine
level that leads off to the hanging walkway. Here, the light filigree of louvers on the façade are translated into an abstract barcode motif that pervades floor, ceiling and counter. These features wrap around the presence of the courtyard garden that suffuses the space with light.
The sweeping curve of the lower tower addresses the traffic junction, at the same time giving occupants an all-round view of the surroundings. The building’s frontage is oriented eastwards, catching the morning sun. Services and restrooms are relegated to the western aspect of the building to buffer the interiors from heat gain.

Cantonment House
Status: Completed 2022
The house is a transformation of a 1950s family home for two siblings, commemorating the Old and New. The old house where they grew up is demolished partially, preserving only the living-dining room as a vessel for past memories.
The new steel structure, the Loft, hovers over the existing house and shared outdoor kitchen and courtyard for family gatherings, forming a bridge connecting the old wing and new Villa with rooftop pool. Villa and Loft interlocks in an L-shaped layout.
The Loft opens out to panoramic views of surrouding hills and skyline. The Villa embraces the pond and garden courtyard.
The Vierendeel truss of the Loft connects the Villa with the preserved fragment of the old family house, bridging together theThree Homes in One House.
Each home reflects the character of the siblings. The Sister's Villa is characterized by minimalist aesthetics with clean lines. A sculptural steel spiral stairs forms a distinctive central feature in the double-height dining room. The design mirrors her introspective nature and lifestyle of an academic.
The Brother's Loft is a statement reflecting the artist's creative spirit and passion for innovation. The design evokes the industrial warehouse-turned-loft housing and artist studios in New York, where the artist lived before. The large open plan allows flexibility and creative use of the space.
Recycled local hardwood is used to balance the raw steel and concrete expression of the Loft and in all timberwork in the Villa including the tall sliding slatted-screen doors on the Villa’s west-facing façade.

Nusantara, Ibu Kota Negara
Status: Completion 2028
VERITAS was selected in late-2019 by President Joko Widodo of the Republic of Indonesia, as one of three design firms to prepare the conceptual master plan for the new administrative capital of Indonesia, to be located near Balik Papan in Eastern Kalimantan Borneo. This prestigious commission arose from a 2-stage international design competition called by the government of Indonesia which attracted over 700 entries worldwide.
The VERITAS scheme is inspired by the symbolism of weaving, i.e. the metaphor of a tapestry in which the many strands of fiber are woven into an overall composition, with the strands representing the various races, religions, generations and economic classes distributed across the archipelago and the resulting tapestry, in all its complex beauty, representing the unity and diversity of the Indonesian nation. It was also inspired by the principles of environmental sustainability by sensitively responding to existing natural context such as topography, water bodies, protected forest and mangrove areas.
The master plan is for a low-carbon “smart-city” in distinct contrast to the dysfunctional entropy of Jakarta. This meant that it was designed not primarily for the automobile like many cities today, but for pedestrians, cyclists and mass rapid transit. More than 40% of land area was set aside for open spaces, linked with a chain of linear parks. To achieve resilience, a rain water retention and filtration system was planned below the alun-alun (public open spaces), upgradable combined utility tunnels below streets, smart power management units to manage the demand of energy usage effectively and reduce carbon emissions, a district cooling plant system for cost-effective and cost sharing among buildings for their air-conditioning needs, an underground mechanical sewage treatment plant to minimize land use and lastly to confront the effects of climate change, the city was set several meters higher than the sea level to anticipate rising sea-water levels.
The VERITAS planning concept for IKN envisioned a Compact and Livable Resilient Community of self-sustainable city blocks, each with a balanced mix of residential, commercial, retail, educational and institutional components. These blocks were on a 1 km x 1 km grid, accommodating 10,000 residents each, and would deform informally to accommodate existing topography and vegetation. The administrative government center of IKN was envisioned to be more formal, with elements of order, hierarchy and axial symmetry. Expansive open spaces and public squares were envisioned to accommodate large gatherings of people, parades and festivals. Here would be located the Presidential Palace, key ministries, Courts of Justice and the new national mosque. The services were provided in collaboration with Ma-Ru Architects of Jakarta, Indonesia.

Sentral Suites
Client: MRCB Berhad
Status: Completed 2023
Our aspiration for Sentral Suites, is to create a place for a modern city lifestyle that thrives on the conveniences and fast-moving pace of KL Sentral but also celebrates the unique mix of cultural heritage and history in this neighbourhood.
More than just individual apartment homes, the scale of the development itself creates a new community and landmark in the area.
There are many Sky Gardens and landscaped pockets scattered throughout the buildings allowing residents to enjoy a garden experience within an urban setting. With its generous amenities including a new urban park that commemorates the local history, there is altogether almost 0.81 ha of open and green areas at Sentral Suites.
The design takes inspiration from the geometric lines of the familiar turmeric leaf or daun kunyit. This becomes a recurring motif in the architecture and landscape, giving a strong visual identity and a link to the rich cultural traditions of this neighbourhood. The project was designed for MRCB and will be completed in 2023.

Radisson Blu Canal View (Bareeq Tower)
Client: Ismail Abbasi
Status: Completed 2019
Located in Business Bay, close to the world’s tallest building the Burj Khalifah, the Radisson Blu Canal View is a hospitality and residential development envisaged to be an iconic feature in itself. Inspired by the maritime tradition of the waterfront, this skyscraper adopts the metaphor of a modern ‘sail’.
Interpreting individual components of the sail such as the woven fabric, this idea is further enhanced by introducing subtle textured patterns on the tower’s façade; a cultural reference to the traditional textile industry of Dubai. The building composition further accentuates the lightness and floating effect of the sail’s characteristics.
The form, clad with a glass curtain wall, is designed with curves in both directions along its surface and edges. The building has a very high floor efficiency with a majority of rooms overlooking the most premium view in the desert city toward the Burj Khalifah. The tower is arranged east-west for ideal solar orientation and the pool deck is located on the western side. The 22-storey tower was developed by Bonyan Emirates and was completed in 2019.

Imperial Lexis Hotel
Client: KL Metro Group
Year: 2024
The Imperial Lexis is a proposed 55-storey mixed-use development located along Jalan Kia Peng in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle district. The site is strategic due to its proximity to Kuala Lumpur City Centre and other prestigious developments, and is well -connected via the new KVMRT line.
The mixed-use single tower development consists of high-end residential and luxury hotel components, a 7-storey podium, rooftop amenity level with swimming pool, a four level below grade parking deck, and a ground and mezzanine floor entry lobbies. The site is also accessible two stories above from Changkat Kia Peng on the South of the site.
All hotel guest rooms are equipped with exclusive outdoor pool and terrace, and the pool edge creates a distinctive façade language. The building’s façade takes into consideration the overall design narration of a ‘Wave’ that can be seen from the glass pool, attached to every guest room unit. Continuous blue spandrel glazing on the Serviced Apartment floors creates a vertical unifying façade element. The idea of the undulation, displayed along the periphery of the curtain wall is also enhanced by interplay of solid and perforated stainless steel panels to create depth and texture, thus creating the illusion of the wave when reflected under light display.
The overall layout is a simple rectangular plan, derived to conform to the narrow site, but is ‘skewed’ to create a dramatic gesture in keeping with the overall design intent, and allow maximum vantage from the majority of the units towards the KLCC view.
The introduction of Kuala Lumpur’s first cantilevered glass ‘Sky Loop’ on the 51st storey will take an unimpeded commanding view towards KLCC and provide an experiential journey being suspended in the air. This facility is complimentary to the sky bar at Level 51 and 52 alongside the swimming pool, gymnasium and spa. The project is scheduled for completion by early 2023, and is developed by KL Metro Bhd.

IBIS Styles Hotel
Client: Engtex Berhad
Status: Completed 2016
Developed as a boutique hotel, IBIS Styles Hotel Sri Damansara was constructed with the intention to cater for business travellers commuting to the nearby Industrial Park, as well as a revenue for the local community. Standing 14 storeys above ground with 2 basem*nts, the building accommodates 144 guest rooms complete with an all day dining, meeting rooms and gymnasium, among others, adequate to cater for a medium-sized hotel.
On paper, the hotel benefits from a double loaded floor plan, designed to maximise efficiency, where all guest rooms are facing both East and West orientation. Bearing in mind the budget and future maintenance factor, the façades are designed with vertical window slits welcoming daylight into the individual rooms. Vertical fins are also introduced to wrap around the roof and both façades.
As with many developments, this project comes with an interesting challenge. Without access from the main road (Kuala Lumpur – Kuala Selangor highway), the IBIS Styles Hotel became quite a fascinating project to build, especially on a tiny land plot of 0.17 ha. Located at Bandar Sri Damansara, adjacent to Kepong Industrial Park, the main entry way to the hotel was created from an internal road feeding off of Bandar Sri Damansara. Opportunely, sited in a strategic location, the hotel benefits from the MRT station line 2 (Sri Damansara Station) and highways stretching along the East and West boundary.
The project was developed by Engtex Berhad and completed in 2016.

BioMed Headquarters And Research Center
Client: BioMed Global
Status: Completed 2021
The BioMed Headquarters and research center is located along Jalan Sungai Buloh, in the northern suburbs of Kuala Lumpur on a 2,000 sm site. This 10-storey building, which was originally designed by VERITAS in 2002 for Aetna Insurance has recently been reborn as a landmark office and research facility for one of the nation’s leading bio-pharmacy corporations.
The building comprises 2 floors of basem*nt car-parking, 8 floors of offices and research labs, support facilities for staff, a 200-seat auditorium, a customer service centre and a multipurpose conference room.
In addition to the programmatic requirements, the design of the building is driven by two major factors—the need for a dual frontage and the awkward orientation of the site. While the northern elevation is the main entrance calling for a formal design articulation, the southern elevation which is also the rear of the building requires effective treatment due to its commanding visibility from Jalan Sungai Buloh.
The east-west orientation of the building necessitated a careful articulation of those façades to reduce heat gain and glare without sacrificing light and views. This is achieved by locating the service core on the western façade, while introducing a deep wall with recessed windows and tinted glass. The three other façades of the building requiring less solar protection are cladded in lightly tinted curtain walls with perforated aluminium metal sun-shading devices.
