A bold and contemporary

architecture

Livvy’s architecture stands out with its bold and contemporary design, created by the renowned architectural firm CBA Architects. The building combines raw concrete, brick, and metal in an elegant industrial style. The varying shades of gray highlight both the building’s softness and character.

The main brick facade gives the building an aesthetic and durable character, while the recessed secondary facade, blending concrete and plaster, accentuates the overall structure.

The dynamic arrangement of the loggias, with voids and shifts between floors,

offers structured breathing spaces while preserving the comfort and privacy of the residents.

At the ground floor level, perforated brick moucharabiehs contrast with the fully glazed areas.

Livvy is an intimate and friendly residence, with two side entrances leading to 18 apartments each. The ground floor houses a range of services accessible from the street, contributing to the creation of a dynamic and multifunctional environment.
