Parque de La
Innovación
Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina2021
Five towers of residential, office, and hotel programs rise in what was an existing park space. The project maintains as much as possible the former green space. The footprints have been tuned in order to maximize continuous open park space on the groundfloor. Terraces on the tops of the towers carve inward to create open outdoor space for the upper residential units. Out from each terrace grows a garden of trees and low shrubs that brings the park upward to the residents. Carving at the bottom of the towers open the public space by increasing plaza area and softening the urban corners of the towers. Small retail buildings lift from the ground in a similar form as the towers, they are a miniature reflection. Together the buildings dance together as a vertical park.
