Arab Banking Corporation Branch Office

Amman, Jordan

The outer elevation with its main gate and openings were carefully designed to guarantee the strong presence of the bank. Special care was put in designing the gate by using local stone of various natural colours and details. Openings were designed to ensure security, yet to improve the unique image of the bank by its iron work. The openings on the top floor were a result of inspiration and modification of a traditional mashrabiyya. The entrance hall is double-height and gives a ceremonial atmosphere to the entrance hall.
