Urban feasibility in Porto on behalf of Nexity Portugal
Adjacent to Lexoes, the large industrial port of Porto, the project takes place on the former industrial site of Novafacar in Leca de Palmeira
Located close to the Atlantic coast, the project is part of an open landscape and interacts with the wider landscape, on an almost geographical scale. The programming of 3 IGH towers calls for an important reflection on wind management. In addition, a study on the prefabrication of the frontage elements has been carried out in order to respond to the unique problem of the durability of the facades in a saline air context.
