Savona Tower
Savona, Italy
This residential complex is part of an
ambitious restructuring and development plan for the area around the port of
Savona, which includes office and residential buildings, as well as retail and
leisure facilities. The challenge here
was to regenerate the area and create a new city centre integrating within a
coherent and organic plan the old port and the city.
The scheme of this mix-use complex
draws a pedestrian public courtyard flanked by 5-storey buildings that
reproduce the low-rise nature of the surroundings and a 19-storey tower on the
corner facing the skyscraper in Paleocapa Street.
The
courtyard on two levels is accessible through some openings in the buildings
screen. This courtyard element connects at street level with the surrounding
urban environment to establish a successful relationship with the existing
historic buildings.
The north side of the complex concentrates
3000 sqm commercial area over the first two floors while the upper floors house
the apartments. The south part houses a 96-room hotel.
The
boat-inspired design tower, overlooking the wharf and the maritime station, provide
Class A office space on the lower floors and apartments on the upper floors.
The structure of the building consists of two vertical volumes side by side.
The openings
alternate with masonry, while in the exterior the skin of the building is
entirely glazed. The apartments enjoy generous terraces
protected by wood sliding shutters and glass railing.
