A. OVERVIEW
A1. DESIGN CRITERIA & PROJECT GOALS
Located within MARAKEZ’s flagship mixed-use development:
Central West, AEON is the first project of
its kind in Sheikh Zayed and 6th of October. The construction
of West Cairo’s first luxury high-rise residential
buildings - AEON TOWERS is ahead of schedule.
These are the first towers in any of Egypt’s new
urban communities. The substructure work of the
two-story underground parking garage of the towers’
has been completed.
AEON Towers are three 72-meter high-rise residential
developments located within AEON which reflects
the ethos and aesthetic of world-renowned architect
Machado Silvetti which aims to deliver a unique living
experience. Machado Silvetti is an award-winning
globally renowned architecture and urban planning
firm famous for its integration of the location’s culture
and character into its design.
The main challenge we thought we could face was
being the first to introduce towers to any of Egypt’s
New Urban Communities. To overcome the challenges
posed by the diversity of the project area program
and its inherent complexities, we have integrated at a
very early stage the Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing
and Fire Protection system designs into the Architectural
layouts and facades, Civil and Infrastructure
designs.
Target Market
- Local and regional clients
Mid-High to High income market
- Starting prices ranging from around 29,000 to
52,000 EGP/ sqm
- Investors considering rental returns and an increase
in value due to the project’s proximity to the mall and
the added value of the surrounding facilities including
the various universities, hospitals, and most important
the mall located at a walking distance.

SUSTAINABILITY
/&INNOVATION
High-rise buildings present several unique challenges
not found in traditional low-rise buildings; longer
egress times and distance, evacuation strategies,
fire department accessibility, smoke movement and
fire control. AEON Towers have included all necessary
measures to establish fire safety precautions,
prevent any escalation, and contain any issue.
To protect the lives and property of the multitudes of
people who daily use these facilities, it is essential
that high-rise security and fire life safety programs
be well planned and executed.
