The Index (Dubai)

Indeks je 328 m (1076 ft) visok, 80-spratni neboder u Dubaiju, Ujedinjeni Arapski Emirati. Od 80 spratova, nižih 25 su kancelarije a 47 će biti za kućnu upotrebu. Kula je usmerena tačno duž ose istok-zapad.Indeks je jedan od prvih kula u regiji inteligentno usklađena sa svojim klimatskim okruženjem u okviru svojih temeljnih načela dizajna. U tornju se strategijom zaštite okoline značajno smanjuje potreba za klimom unutar zgrade i stoga značajno smanjuju troškovi energije za svoje stanare. Tokom vrhunca leta, bez klimatizacije, unutarnja temperatura tornja neće nadmašiti 28 stepeni Celzijusa.Toranj ima parking za 2.442 vozila. U junu 2011, Indeks Toranj je bio dobitnik 2011 najbolje visoke zgrade, nagrade Veća Bliskog istoka i Afrike  o visokim zgradama.The Index is a 328 m (1,076 ft) tall, 80-storey skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Of the 80 floors, the lower 25 are to be offices and 47 will be for residential use. The tower is oriented exactly along the east-west.The Index is one of the first towers in the region to intelligently embrace its climatic surrounding environment within its fundamental design principles. The tower's environmental strategy significantly lowers the requirement for air conditioning within the building and therefore substantially reduces the energy costs for its tenants. During the height of the summer, without air conditioning, the tower's internal temperatures will not surpass 28 degrees Celsius.The tower has car parking for 2,442 cars.In June 2011, The Index Tower was the recipient of the 2011 Best Tall Building Middle East & Africa award by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.
