Abdul Rahim Architectural Consultants (Araco), a leading engineering consultant in design and project management in the UAE, is celebrating 32 years of its operations in the country.

Over the last three decades, Araco has been instrumental in the development of over 1,500 projects across the UAE paying particular attention and strict compliance to local and international construction standards, and practicing transparent business ethics, said the company in a statement.

It boasts a diversified portfolio comprising multi-storey residential towers and villas, commercial buildings, hospitality and industrial projects including manufacturing plants, cold stores, and warehouses, it stated.

Some of the company’s more iconic structures include futuristically-designed residential and mixed-use buildings in Dubai’s Silicon Oasis; residential towers in Jumeirah Village Circle, Business Bay, and many other locations; office and commercial buildings such as the IB Tower in Business Bay, and those in Al Garhood, Sheikh Zayed Road, and other locations in the UAE.

The company has also developed large functional warehouses in industrial zones, and many showrooms on Sheikh Zayed road.

However, Araco said it considers the work on palaces and residential villas, such as a futuristic-oceanic hybrid palace constructed on oceanfront property at Jumeirah Beach in Dubai as its most iconic projects.

The company’s projects are a testament to its drive for excellency, beauty, and in some instances unorthodoxy, it added.

Some of its key projects in the pipeline are Dubai Silicon Oasis (Ribbon of the Light Project); six buildings in Dubai’s upcoming residential area Jumeriah Village Circle; SA Properties in Barsha Heights; a G+33 typical floors in Dubailand (Majan) Wadi Al Safa; 22 buildings in Satwa area and Dh300-million twin towers at International Media Production Zone (IMPZ).

Raheem Bani Zaman Lari, the managing director and founder of Aracao, said: "Over the decades, we have been involved in numerous projects some which seemed impossible. But we developed and continue to develop our capabilities to design, construct, and supervise the creation of magnificent structures."

"We are not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom, go against the flow, and swim upstream with bold ideas: in fact, I would go so far to say that it is this organizational cultural identity that has made Araco so successful," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
