Environment

The Wave, Muscat is one with its environment, one with its surroundings. We’re conscious of the fact that we’re situated in a sublime setting, and each facet of the development has been crafted with a strong emphasis on green initiatives.

The Wave, Muscat, incorporates best practice principles in creating green spaces and innovative, aesthetic approaches to landscaping. As a sustainable complex The Wave, Muscat uses materials and technologies that help minimize the impact of the development on the environment.

The various techniques employed to achieve this include:

The creation of artificial environments to attract various wildlife, including an artificial reef in the marina and green areas to support both local and migratory bird life.

Wall cavity insulation and low E glazing that minimizes the loss of heat from within the buildings and reduces solar gain from outside.

A centralized cooling plant that provides air conditioning for the apartment buildings, using ecologically friendly mass centrifugal cooling techniques as opposed to refrigerant units.

Landscaping that incorporates a selection of gravels and a palette of plant species accustomed to the Sultanate’s climate and soil, which in turn minimize the use of water.

Given the slew of aforementioned initiatives, The Wave, Muscat is applying for accreditation from the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).

In making a positive impact on the environment, we’re fostering a unique, participatory way of life for the communities that call this development home. And paying just the right homage to the setting we’re fortunate enough to be part of.
