Contemporary tower bridges city life and green horizons
The Inspira SP building, located in São Paulo, Brazil, emerges as a contemporary response to a consolidated urban context marked by the city’s cultural and corporate intensity.
The tower is designed with a peripheral structural grid in concrete, a permanent, stable, and powerful structure.
By moving the load-bearing elements to the periphery, the structural grid frees up the internal spaces, allowing each floor to be occupied in a free, flexible, and reprogrammable manner.
A continuous system of planters are integrated into the concrete structure.
Between the neutral and the artificial, greenery spreads and recomposes the native biome.
On the ground floor, the tower opens up to the city through a public grandstand and a lush garden. At the top, the structural grid folds horizontally.
