Two halves are enclosed in the facade, they twist at an angle of 45 degrees, creating an original and dynamic shape, connected by four bridges at different heights, on floors 13, 24, 35 and 45 respectively.

The tower combines many different spaces and offers beautiful views of the surroundings. The atrium also provides natural light for the interior of the building, while acting as a thermal chimney with an integrated ventilation system.
