Oman-based Teejan Group of Companies has announced the launch of its first solar-powered building project for smart offices, The Taj, which will come up on a 3,942-sq-m area in Ghala region of the sultanate.
A seven-minute drive from Muscat Airport, the Taj will boast a three-storey underground parking for 270 vehicles, reception office, restaurants, cafes, mini market, a bank and other facilities to meet all needs of the employees, customers and visitors, reported Oman Observer.
The 13-storey project will feature a variety of latest technologies and high-end specifications, equipped with fast Internet connections, said the report.
Taj will be the first office building in Oman to be equipped with a robot to work as a guide for the visitors. The building will be solar- powered alongside smart lighting and AC systems, it stated.
It will boast four elevators, special areas at each floor for break and coffee, a business centre equipped with display screens and sound system, a golf court and a spa with jacuzzi and sauna, said the report.
Taj will be equipped with the heat reflective glass, suspended ceilings, porcelain and marble for corridors and entrances, special entrance for the handicapped, fire detection devices, male and female toilets at each floor, prayer rooms, and a fountain at the reception area, CCTV cameras and around the clock security.
A gamechanger project, Taj will see company owners control the electronic systems at their offices through a smart phone application, said the report.
The internal design provides safety, comfortability; all communications platforms; such as the Internet and the phone lines are made properly to make work easier and ‘smart’.
The work is likely to start on the project within the next few weeks and is due for completion early in 2020, it added.
