Aaki consultants were commissioned by the client to design a commercial development at the heart of Kikuyu town. The design concept adopts a rectangular form with a central service core separating the two wings of the building. The central service core is shared by the two wings of the building thus minimizing the circulation area and subsequently maximizes office space. Its long narrow floor plans maximize use of natural light during the day with the solar glazing reducing solar radiation penetration to usable spaces thus negating the need to use mechanical ventilation. Some of the tenants in the commercial development include Aga Khan University Hospital, Cooperative bank, a supermarket as well as private offices.
