Bahrain Building
Atkins was appointed to provide all masterplanning architecture and structural and MEP engineering design services for the Bahrain World Trade Center site, located on the main King Faisal Highway in Manama, Bahrain. More than half its area was previously developed, and comprised the Sheraton Bahrain Hotel, an associated single-storey luxury shopping mall, an office tower, car parking facilities, services and landscaped areas. The Bahrain World Trade Center is a flagship development for Bahrain, raising the profile of Manama as it projects a world first in large scale integrated wind turbine use.
