ALTOPARCO TOWER
Residential | Competition
Milano | 2020
“Altoparco Tower” is a part of a 30.000 sqm residential complex, within one of Milan’s largest real estate developments conceived in the last twenty years. The plot layout deliberately opens to the adjacent park, and together with a careful modulation of building heights maximises pleasant views across the landscape for a greater number of units. On the southern and eastern corners, narrow breaks to the solid volume visually connect the semi-private garden to the public park, tracing the flow of days and seasons upon the outdoor space like a huge sundial garden.
At the northern corner a tapered 30 storey tower hosts 125 apartments surrounded by continuous balconies, meeting contemporary market demands whilst defining the transition between the linear perimeter walls and the hyperbolic facade.
