Index

Index is an 80 storey multi-purpose tower with state-of-the-art offices designed for multinational corporations and luxury apartments for those who expect exceptional living. The construction of Index started in 2006 and is planned to be completed in 2008. Index is the first of a new era of 'intelligent buildings' that are destined to be the skyscrapers of the future. Index elegantly combines 25 floors of office space, 40 floors for apartments, in addition to 7 dedicated for penthouses and 3 levels for exclusive retails outlets. 'Minimalism can refer to the extreme simplicity of a work of art. The Index building is simplicity personified.'

Index is the creation of the reputed award-winning architects Foster & Partners, a leading firm of architects in the United Kingdom whose dedication to the art and science of minimalist design has resulted in yet another iconic creation.
