一对高度达到126米的双塔耸立在阿尔赫西拉斯湾边,改变了当地的天际线与景观,当之无愧的成为该地的标志物。总面积19000平方米的建筑被人工湖环绕,呈圆形的塔体一共20层,主要用作办公空间,少量空间用于商业空间和服务空间。两栋楼之间由透明墙面的走廊联系。说到特征,最让人深刻的莫过于将筒体包裹的外立面,外立面看起来像是巨型字母的堆叠,其作品是让建筑拥有瞭望海湾与山脉美景的同时也避开过多的阳光照射。
At a height of 126 meters, the “Torres de Hercules” rise up from the Bay of Algeciras (Cádiz), as a new benchmark in the Campo de Gibraltar and the transition of the Straight, as their uniqueness changes the area’s landscape.
The new construction, which is surrounded by a man-made lake, is comprised of two identical 20-storey cylindrical towers, joined by a crystalline prism which houses the hallways connecting the two buildings.
Its outer appearance is configured by the structure of the building, a gigantic lattice which completely surrounds the perimeter. They contain the giant letters of the legend “Non Plus Ultra”. Their job is to protect the inside of the building from excess solar radiation while providing panoramic views of the Bay of Algeciras, the Rock of Gibraltar, and the range of mountains.
With a total surface area of 19,000 sqm, most of the space will be used for offices, although some of the floors will have commercial space and services.
