High-rise 26 storeys 4 units per floor The division down the centre of the structure and the angular halving of the geometry of the floor plans lends the building a rhythmic structure as well as different levels of illumination. Each of the two cores features a helix staircase arrangement and two lifts that provide access to two units on each floor. The apartments at each end of the building are organised around a large living area that extends the entire depth of the building and opens onto a total of four bedrooms. Two of these have en-suite bathrooms; a further bathroom is located in a freestanding box in the centre of the large space. Where the two halves meet at the corner, the basic principle of the apartment typology varies. Here, there is no large, continuous living area, and one bedroom less. There are no loggias or balconies. The excellent illumination strategy gives the faรงade a regular grid with only a few toilets located in the interior of the building.
