It looks very different, unique, and futuristic and it will be associated with the design, technology, and luxury appeal that are trademarks of every Mercedes-Benz.” Gorden Wagener, Chief Design Officer, Mercedes-Benz Group AG.

Mercedes-Benz Places | Binghatti compromises a collection of 150 residences, consisting of a carefully balanced selection of two- to four-bedroom units and five penthouses. Each residence has been meticulously crafted to intensify the desirable brand experience. The tower is composed of three main elements, starting with the core and its horizontal structuring of the balconies. The second is the adjoining lamella structure with its dynamic lines. It encompasses the entire volume of the tower like a frame, and thus contributes to the overall appearance of the building.

The third element is the closed southern façade, which is characterised by its cladding. Its visually striking design is not only functional but also a significant contributor to the tower’s overall identity. Not only does the cladding provide shading from the peak summer sun, it also contributes to the building’s energy efficiency through the integration of photovoltaics. Generous floor-to-ceiling glazing allows the interior and exterior to merge into a single entity, creating a space that seamlessly melds architecture and nature.
