About
It is an urban complex of hotels, business centres, exhibition areas, headquarters offices and apartments.
The complex is meant as a lively urban space that will grow with the future Life Science Industrial Park. It puts people first: flexible and inventive, it breaks with the rigid, serious image of an industrial park and comes closer to the people who use it.
The site called for a strong presence in the neighbourhood, a landmark for the city. The structure rests on a raised garden platform that unites the whole programme, with several buildings rising from it: a floating city garden.
