This 260-meter tower explores the interplay of transparency and layering. Its prominent facade acts as a breathable filter between private living quarters and semi-private loggias. Conceived as flexible spaces for private gardens, the loggias are typically enclosed but utilize sliding panels to open outwards when desired.
As the building rises, its spatial dynamics shift. The higher the elevation, the more these "in-between" spaces diminish. The facade elements gracefully thin out to maximize outward views, reflecting a functional transition: high above the city, the need to screen the interior falls away, yielding entirely to the view.
