SPACES
The interior and exterior spaces of the building are carefully designed to offer a pleasant and comfortable experience for users.
The commercial spaces, amenities, and social areas provide a variety of options for interaction and recreation, fostering a sense of community and well-being.
The distribution of spaces in the building is done efficiently and functionally, making the most of the available area on the land.
The levels of underground parking, commercial areas, apartments, and amenities are organized in a coherent and effective manner, optimizing the use of space without sacrificing comfort or functionality.
WIND ANALYSIS
The wind analysis has shown that the curved shape of
the building acts as an aerodynamic profile, resulting in a
significant decrease in wind forces on the structure. Being
curved, the building experiences less wind resistance
compared to a conventional flat shape, thereby reducing
the pressures and stresses exerted by the wind on its
surface.
SHAPE
The curved shape of the building provides greater wind resistance, reducing wind forces on the structure. This, in turn, can help decrease the energy consumption needed for heating, ventilation, and artificial lighting in the building. Additionally, the strategic design of interior spaces, such as the use of natural light and cross ventilation, contributes to greater energy efficiency and reduces the building’s carbon footprint. The proper shape and arrangement of spaces allow for better control of the indoor climate.
Curved louvers and strategically placed facades reduce the impact of direct sunlight and overheating inside the building. This creates a more comfortable and habitable environment for occupants, improving their quality of life. Finally, it provides a unique and distinctive visual appeal. This distinctive aesthetic can enhance its value as a property and become an architectural landmark in the area.
