Working with developer Construtora Pasqualotto GT, the structure of the building consists of two towers and the base, with the design team drawing inspiration from the triangular piece of land where the towers are located. This triangular-shaped base was envisioned as the keel of a yacht, ready to dive into the sea, reminiscent of Pininfarina’s experience in the transportation sector. The towers feature large glass wall panels that will offer residents sweeping views of the ocean and Brazilian forests.
