Within the complex layers of the urban landscape, OBR, the architecture studio responsible for the architectural project, adopted an approach that fosters dialogue between the existing architecture and the city of the future, combining present and past in anticipation of what’s to come. The project’s quality can be found in the crucial role attributed to open spaces, conceived as gathering and meeting places.

Rhythm and rigour become the meaningful elements of an architecture that maintains its landmark status through its ability to “shape the city.”
