The residential tower is located in São Paulo’s Itaim Bibi neighborhood, a sector undergoing a profound transformation that is moving from the traditional fabric of single-family homes in horizontal extensions to a profile of high-rise buildings that meet the city’s growing residential demand.
The 25-story building houses 123 small apartments or rooms, with large individual terraces. The proposal seeks to emphasize its slenderness and to stand out, without gratuitous stridency, in the monotonous sea of undifferentiated skyscrapers of São Paulo as a “respectful singularity”.
