Located on the border between the city's oldest neighborhood and its newest development, Torre Huergo 475 is situated in a context where history, infrastructure, and landscape converge. Within this setting, the project introduces a publicly accessible plaza that mediates between the building and the urban space, creating an environment conducive to interaction.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The project is organized around a tower with 507 apartments distributed across 39 levels, with three underground levels for parking and technical areas. Above this base, a 2,575 m\u00b2 plaza extends the public space into the interior of the site. A series of horizontal shifts, in relation to the urban landscape, structures the emergence of common spaces that strengthen the connection between residents and the city.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The structure combines a central core, a perforated perimeter wall, and partially lightweight, beamless slabs. From level 13, the tower projects an 11.30-meter cantilever, achieved through a system of inclined struts that transfer loads to the central core, in conjunction with the side facades that function as Vierendeel trusses.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The exposed concrete envelope simultaneously assumes a structural and expressive role. A formwork with a grooved texture unifies the overall appearance, while a green tint defines its finish and provides water-repellent properties. This design principle extends to the fa\u00e7ade elements, which are constructed using a stick-type aluminum system adapted as a window-wall.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

An art program runs through the building's section, giving identity to the common areas. With a built area of 44,560 m\u00b2 and a total height of 120.60 meters, the project articulates density, public space, and construction system in a single operation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
