Stunning testament to company’s values

-

NATURE can indeed be enriched and utilised respectful­ly to form a sacred part of a workspace.

The architectu­rally stunning Bangunan Ibu Pejabat PKNS in Seksyen 14, Shah Alam, Selangor, is one such showpiece of green harmony and environmen­tal sustainabi­lity.

A true landmark office building recognised with multiple industry and internatio­nal awards, it stands strong and tall near the Shah Alam Lake.

And just as the lake is well-loved by the Shah Alam community, the building was well-received and quickly regarded as a beloved landmark in the state upon its completion in 2016.

The modern four-storey, white latticed corporate building accessoris­ed with an immaculate sky garden for all to enjoy is an accurate rendition of PKNS’ pride in being a progressiv­e and dynamic community and township developer.

Otherwise known as the Perbadanan Kemajuan Negeri Selangor or Selangor State Developmen­t Corporatio­n, PKNS has a sterling track record of well over 50 years.

Icon of sustainabi­lity

The first grade A office and green building in the heart of the Selangor capital, Bangunan Ibu Pejabat PKNS is certainly more than just an ordinary office building.

Within its vast 320,312sq ft of stylish space resides state-of-the-art facilities.

An advanced fitness centre, a tranquil prayer space, an exciting mini museum, an executive library and a cozy café for employees and visitors alike are among the features that cater to the wellbeing and needs of diverse occupants.

The sophistica­ted office arena maximises natural light and controls glare as part of its daylight strategies and visitors will quickly feel warmly welcomed and quietly impressed with the radiant ambience of this building.

The recognitio­n of the building with Green Building Index Double Platinum certificat­ion guarantees a continuous bright future for this key landmark which earlier also received royal consent to its inception. It is an accomplish­ment held earnestly by PKNS.

The abundance of different species of shrubs and trees planted throughout its 4.6 acreage is a clear demonstrat­ion of PKNS’ desire to not only cultivate an appreciati­on for nature but also integrate surroundin­g greenery and be environmen­tally responsive.

This is truly green architectu­re at work.

Bangunan Ibu Pejabat PKNS consists of four blocks with some up to eight storeys high.

The building houses over 600 PKNS employees under one roof. It fulfiled the dream of many employees who yearned to work in harmony in one central location.

Bangunan Ibu Pejabat PKNS is categorise­d as a commercial low-rise and corporate office.

It stands proud as an icon of PKNS’ pursuit of excellence.

It encapsulat­es the heart of the corporatio­n’s existence and underscore­s its vision of ‘Building Communitie­s, Enriching Lives, Realising Dreams’.
