Bilal Pearl Tower, Viva Bahriya, The Pearl

GHD has been engaged by Ahmed Hassan Bilal Trading and Contracting Company to re-design and oversee the construction of a 20-storey residential tower on the Pearl Island development in Qatar.

The tower development consists of chalets; studios; one, two and three bedroom apartments and penthouses; and facilities including two swimming pools, and separate male and female gymnasiums.

GHD is delivering a design that fits the high-end location in the Viva Bahriya district of Pearl Island, while taking into account the client’s need for a spatially-efficient outcome. This has maximised the use of space and increased the number of apartments to 166 – a 17 percent improvement over the base design.
