Axis

Arquitectonica designed this 730-unit mixed use development that features two high-rise residential towers placed on top of a retail center and parking garage. Each tower includes ground retail space.

Each building is a pure prism. The minimalist design will stand out in its simplicity and sculptural quality. Horizontal bands of glass shape the buildings. These bands end in an undulating edge that gives the buildings a unique (and sensual) vertical profile. The rising curves grow in intensity as the towers rises, culminating in two sloping roofs that take off in opposite directions. The form alludes to the water and the breezes that make this tropical city so special.

The apartments are reached via two separate elevator cores that add privacy. The unit plans are modern and efficient, with minimal circulation areas and maximum usable space: the clean lines provide an added feeling of spaciousness
