Abu Dhabi - MENA Herald:

IMKAN, a globally reputed property developer renowned for creating soulful places that enrich people’s lives, has announced progress on its integrated residential project, Thanaya. Located in Abu Dhabi’s vibrant Al Muntazah area, the development blends contemporary and traditional elements to offer a modern and serene lifestyle.

Earlier this year, IMKAN appointed Shapoorji Pallonji Mideast as the main contractor, local architectural design company UNii Engineering Consultancy as the lead consultant, and global design and consultancy firm Arcadis as the cost consultant for the project. Construction works are well underway, with 75 percent of the shoring completed. The for-lease-only building is scheduled for handover in Q4 2019.

The residential development will comprise two basement car park levels, multi-use retail and F&B space and a pharmacy on the ground level, a community clinic on the mezzanine level, and 84 spacious apartments ranging from studios to two-bedroom units across six levels. Thanaya features bespoke rooftop amenities, including a jogging track and other outdoor recreational zones.

Inspired by the traditional mashrabiya - Al Thanaya’s ever-changing façade, apart from aesthetic appeal, will ensure privacy, personalization and customization for its residents with the advanced shading system.

Walid El-Hindi, Chief Executive Officer of IMKAN, said: “Thanaya has been carefully designed to respect local customs while providing an enhanced living experience. The varied elements integrated within the project are a direct result of IMKAN’s in-depth research on the micro-environment, combined with meticulous planning to create a holistic community. Furthermore, its purpose-driven architecture responds to the site requirements and market forecasts.”

He added: “We have a consistent project progress track record across our portfolio, and our strong research focus remains at the heart of everything we do, regardless of the size of a project. Our destinations stand out for their unique emphasis on people and community-building that enables us to shape the residential and commercial real estate landscape of Abu Dhabi in new and exciting ways.”

IMKAN aims to expand its domestic and international footprint through unique projects that support and enhance local culture while seamlessly becoming a part of the communities in which they operate.
