Project Overview
Five blocks from the VB 160 family, painted to disappear.
Situated along the scenic coastline of Penang’s Seri Tanjung Pinang, Quayside Seafront Resort Condominium is an upscale residential development by Eastern & Oriental Berhad (E&O). Designed to embody tropical resort living, the development features a harmonious blend of architectural elegance, natural ventilation, and lush coastal landscaping. Its proximity to the sea makes sustainable design choices even more critical, especially in terms of ventilation and material durability.
Use of PBM Ventilation Blocks
To support passive cooling and airflow, PBM’s VentBlocks were installed throughout the development in areas such as multi-storey carparks, service shafts, and stairwells. These blocks help regulate airflow and minimize moisture accumulation, particularly critical in Penang’s humid seaside climate.
For this project, all VentBlocks were painted to complement the façade color scheme, allowing them to blend seamlessly with the building’s overall architectural tone while maintaining their ventilation performance.
