File includes 38 drawings: (25 plans, 5 sections, 4 elevations, 2 exterior perspectives, 2 details: glazing.) and 7 photographs (3 prints of model, 4 contact sheets with 47 images total. The Investment Authority site lies directly opposite a series of broad gardens and is very prominent in its visibility. As such the project was to be a significant contributor to the urban design of the city, and the building's proportions and its relationship to the street were important criteria. The design for the new headquarters for the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority was prepared in 1978 in response to an International Invited Design Competition. The site for this project was on the Abu Dhabi "Corniche" albeit at that time in its infancy. The Corniche today is a splendid 10 km Avenue of high quality development and lush tropical gardens with lovely promenades along the sea front. In order to provide a distinctive column-free "banking hall" it was decided to suspend the building from its core walls and columns. This allowed the ground floor to be completely column free and facilitated the design of interior/exterior relationships between the banking hall and the site landscaping. A raised banking hall provided a podium housing below grade parking and improved views to the sea across the Corniche. The structural effect of the building coupled with the tall slender proportions of the glazing created a sense of lightness and gracefulness particularly important to this owner.

File includes 2 drawings (1 site plan, 1 section) and 1 photograph slide of model. This project was a limited design competition. The twin towered headquarters building was commissioned for a major international financial organization. The design incorporates both mirrored double glazed curtain walls for offices, and reflective glass blocks and walls for the service core and major circulation spaces.

File includes 15 drawings (10 plans, 1 section, 3 elevations; 1 combination drawing with 1 plan, section, detail), 105 photographs (40 prints: 24 of model, 16 miscellaneous; 65 negatives: 30 of model, 33 site), and 1 model of the building. The Etisalat Head Office Building in Abu Dhabi serves as the headquarters of the Emirates Telecommunications Corporation and provides a symbol for the corporation in Abu Dhabi and throughout the United Arab Emirates. The project was the winner of a Limited Design Competition conducted in 1985. It is composed of transmission facilities, branch office and head office functions, and public activities, all located on a prominent corner site in Abu Dhabi. The plan of the project responds to the corner site by directly addressing the traffic circle. By selecting a tower plan form, it also provides the office functions with good views of the adjacent gardens, the city, and sea to the north. A unique curtain wall system provides solar protection by a facetted arrangement of alternating opaque and vision panels, which give the façade its geometric pattern. At the project's summit is the radome, which houses the telecommunications/microwave functions. It is a unique solution to the problem of visually controlling the multitude of dishes and aerials required of Etisalat, recalling the traditional forms of Islamic design in a refreshing manner. This feature of the project has now become the identifying "image" of the Corporation in the Emirates. It was nominated for the Aga Khan Award in 1995.
