At Purple Dot International, we don’t just build structures; we cultivate a future. This core philosophy was spectacularly brought to life on the evening of May 28th, 2025, with the grand unveiling of the Purple Tower, a landmark Grade A, EDGE-certified green office complex on Mombasa Road. This wasn’t merely a building launch; it was a defining moment for Nairobi, marked by a historic first: the city’s inaugural public drone light show. The atmosphere pulsed with innovation, sustainability, and the tangible vision for progress that Purple Dot International embodies.
The Purple Tower
The Purple Tower stands as a profound commitment to sustainable development. This impressive 14-story architectural marvel, distinguished by its unique purple hue and advanced engineering, perfectly encapsulates our philosophy: “Purple is the New Green.” More than just a building, the Purple Tower is a meticulously crafted ecosystem designed for maximum efficiency and seamless harmony with its environment. It proudly claims its place as the first green building on Mombasa Road, promising a remarkable 27% reduction in energy consumption, a 41% decrease in water usage, and a 33% reduction in embodied material energy. This is a testament to the dedication to delivering quality, relevant, and trustworthy real estate investment opportunities through ethical practices.
