Over the last several years Machado Silvetti designed the Master Plan for this new World Class Financial District in Eastern Asia. The master-plan distributes 22 million square feet of gross floor area on over 75 acres of land in downtown Kuala Lumpur. At full build-out the district will include 25 tall buildings, housing for 3,800 permanent residents, 26,000 parking bays and a 2 million square foot shopping mall underneath a 10 acre public park.

Infrastructural Trench Foundations

The project's program calls for the establishment of a landmark district of global significance, accommodating leading Malaysian and international financial institutions and regulatory bodies, as well as associated residential, cultural, and retail function. TRX is to be a vibrant commercial hub for Malaysia and Southeast Asia, designed to international standards, ensuring an elegant, efficient, safe and sustainable living and working environment for its users. TRX incorporates site wide shared utilities as well as Smart City design principles and has already been granted a Neighborhood Development Plan Gold Level Conditional Approval from LEED.
