The Tokio Marine Centre building received a GREEN MARK FOR BUILDINGS AWARD, under the Goldplus category, at the BCA AWARDS 2008.
Located at 20 McCallum Street, the 124.5m high building accommodates 21 storeys and a basement, that will generate about 14,500 sq m of gross floor area. It is scheduled for completion by late June 2010.
The design for the headquarters of Tokio Marine Group, combines architectural innovation, structural integrity, efficiency in the use of energy and water, as well as comfortable and healthy work spaces, reflecting the company's philosophy of environment-friendliness.
The 'green' features of the building include the 'exo skeleton' façade design; energy efficient design of the Airconditioning and Mechanical Ventilation (ACMV) system, the lighting system, and the elevators and escalators; as well as implementation of water-saving techniques such as collection of condensate water from the Air Handling Units (AHUs), rainwater harvesting, and extensive use of water-efficient sanitary fittings. These are expected to contribute to overall annual savings of 830,000 kWhrs of energy and 5,400 m³ of water.
