What I can see
It is a building that refers to a sculpture. It is inspired by the city’s history and antiquities. The architects wanted the building to resemble a sculpture made of rough pieces of marble, but at the same time to be a light work, similar to folded paper and origami. It has 6 sides with flat and concave surfaces and the surfaces are divided into successive triangles, after a special processing in their texture. Arched openings give more air and permeability. Moreover, the “play” of geometry and materials causes an intense “play” of light and shadow.
What I can't see
The apartment building consists of 3 apartments, parking spaces, roof garden and pilotis. It is called H_50 and was designed by 314 Architecture Studio.
