Girassol building was thought to seize a site where placing a generic glass tower was not an option. The sloped street, the bohemian neighborhood, and the imposed height limitations asked for a unique and anti-corporate edifice.
Taking advantage of the terrain’s topography, that creates a sharp declivity along the site’s basement, the general volumetry assumes a complexity in the same level as the intended quality of the spaces: the pavements allude to big cobbles with unique qualities, sometimes covered, sometimes not; with living areas and thriving gardens.
