Top Towers: Formal complexity and constructive simplicity
São Paulo, SP
This project in São Paulo, Brazil, demanded the design of two office towers in a terrain of relatively difficult occupation, because of its narrow and elongated shape.
Its location, however, is extremely privileged, situated in the confluence of some of the city’s most important avenues, Paulista Ave., Vergueiro Ave., and Vinte e Três de Maio Ave. The opportunity to design a new building in such a place also represented a great potential for the creation of a new landmark of great visibility in the city’s skyline.
Thus, two major guidelines were present at the development of the Top Towers project. The first was a group of typical demands from the real estate market, which included the thorough use of the terrain’s building potential, the optimization of the private areas and the adoption of the best possible relation between private and common areas.
The second consisted in the architect’s concern of imbuing the project with great formal richness and impressive plasticity that could achieve the goal of creating a new urban reference.
These two relatively conflicting guidelines also needed to be matched through the use of simple and economic constructive techniques, commonly employed by the average building companies in Brazil. This took to the effort of exploring new and innovative applications for common-use, traditional building methods.
