The interior of the residential structure also pays attention to the intricate details within. A sharp detailing can be seen in the railing of the staircase without compromising the ergonomics, amidst the harmonious interactions of the materials.

Residents and visitors alike are welcomed to this apartment building, through a lofty double-height reception area next to a glazed community space which is naturally-lit and is in interaction with the outdoor landscaped space.

The outdoor landscape spills down to the basement-1 which is accessible through a series of terraced green steps and is adjacent to the drivers’ waiting room, ensuring the improved indoor environmental quality not only for the apartment units but for the common spaces too.

The tower overlooks the outdoor green landscape in the ground level that is responsible for maintaining a shared relationship between the indoor and the outdoor.

A confluence of the internal and external environment becomes noticeable in this luxury home.

With a diverging play of alternating planes, layers of exterior spaces are generated which facilitate the vertically oriented landscaped area with hanging gardens.

A companionship is evident from the periphery of the site. The semi-permeable boundary walls formed with the composition of the concrete and glass through which the vegetation from the indoor landscape is interacting with the sidewalk of Gulshan-2.


The repeated playfulness and interaction of the alternating planes and the linear slabs become a composition of continuous elegance embracing Kafil Manor and stands as a signature.
