GSI Tower is designed by Sanzpont Arquitectura,
and will be located in Cancun, Mexico. This 20-storey building will
house a shopping mall, hotel and offices, and consists of 2 vertical
bodies that meet at the top by 2 habitable bridges with an interior
garden to form a large frame of the natural landscape.
Unlike other buildings, this structure has open space in the middle
through which even a helicopter can easily pass. The design is so
unique. the two parts of the building meet at the top with two habitable
bidges creating space in the middle of the structure.
The Building is protected from the sun on the western face with a
ventilated façade made of alucobond in the form of fish scales, indirect
natural light is filtered inside between the horizontal louvers of its
perimeter.
Towards the western face, the building will be protected from the sun.In the eastern façade, the building skin is designed with a set of
serigraph, sandblasted and transparent glass that take advantage of the
natural views of the Golf Course and the Caribbean Sea.
It gives the
city an elevated public square that generates an urban green balcony. As
an added value,
the building allows the public to continue to rise even
more, because it has a restaurant lounge at the top level. With all
this, the vertical infrastructure integrates with the city life and
urban environment.
