About the Project

Azure Office emerged from a forward-thinking brief: create a workspace that would attract and retain the region's most talented creative professionals while setting new standards for sustainable commercial architecture in Jordan. The six-story tower, with its distinctive blue-tinted glass curtain wall, has become a landmark in Amman's emerging tech district, signaling the city's ambitions as a hub for innovation and design. The building's name derives from both its striking facade and the clarity of vision it represents for the future of work in the Middle East.

The interior organization prioritizes flexibility and collaboration. Each floor plate offers column-free spans of fifteen meters, allowing tenants to configure spaces according to their evolving needs. A central atrium connects all levels visually and physically, with cascading stairs encouraging spontaneous encounters between workers from different floors. Natural light penetrates deep into the floor plates through the fully glazed facade, while automated blinds respond to sun position to prevent glare and reduce cooling loads. Private focus rooms, phone booths, and informal meeting zones complement the open workspace areas, acknowledging that creative work requires both collaboration and concentration.

The rooftop garden serves as the building's social heart, offering panoramic views across Amman's seven hills. Native plants and shaded seating areas create a retreat from the intensity of the workday, while a small amphitheater hosts events ranging from product launches to yoga sessions. The building achieved LEED Gold certification through strategies including high-efficiency mechanical systems, rainwater harvesting, and locally sourced materials. Azure Office demonstrates that commercial buildings can be simultaneously economically viable, environmentally responsible, and inspirationally designed.
