To maximize natural light within the apartments, the residential complex features three stepped towers aligned along a north-south axis. These structures appear to float above their base, reminiscent of grand ocean liners cutting through waves. This distinctive form allows the building to assert its presence within the neighbourhood, setting a new architectural tone for the area.
The terraces running along the façades of the upper floors provide shade from the high summer sun, ensuring a more comfortable indoor climate. Between the parallel residential blocks, liveable green spaces have been created, featuring ornamental gardens and communal areas. Beneath the apartments and gardens, 3,000 square meters of commercial space connect the residential complex to street level.
Each apartment has been designed with a well-thought-out floor plan, offering a wide variety of sizes and layouts. Community spaces and contemporary art installations enhance the living environment, while practical amenities such as an underground garage with electric vehicle charging stations ensure modern convenience. The building’s heating and hot water are supplied by a modern district heating system, offering an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient solution.
