    CONCEPT

    Its ambition is to achieve, despite its size, a character that is individual and personal,
    perhaps even intimate. The different levels of the building rotate from the central axis
    and each one of them is cantilevered with which they generate a series of balconies that
    appear like a great pile of pieces of “Lego” made of glass. The irregular arrangement of
    the blocks causes each of the plans to be different.

    SPACES

    • The tower houses 145 residences with a single floor.


    • On the second level of the building is a private parking. The next four floors of
    the building, which the architects have termed as “The Townhouses”
    • The last 10 levels of the top that give the appearance that they were simply
    stacked correspond to the 10 Penthouses ranging from 1,112 to 1,944 square
    meters each.
    FEATURES

    •  The project began with individual rooms, treating them as “pixels” grouped together on a floor-
    by-floor basis. 
    • The structure will be materialized in reinforced concrete, with glass facade, steel and
    aluminum. The building completes its exterior cladding with Travertino marble and
    Thassos marble.
    • Lighting was considered through both natural light through slab to slab glazing and refined interior
    lighting plans.
    • The top of any tower is its most visible element and, in keeping with this, the top of 56 Leonard Street
    is the most expressive part of the project. This expressiveness is driven directly by the requirements
    of the interior, consisting of ten large-scale penthouses with expansive outdoor spaces and spacious
    living areas.
