About Hera Phacz Home Asuinrakennus

Hera Phacz Home on asuinrakennus, joka on suunniteltu kaupunkitontille Porto Belossa, Brasiliassa. Kolmikymmenkerroksisessa tornissa on neljäkymmentäkahdeksan asuntoa, kaksi kerroksessa, sekä vapaa-ajan alue kuudennessa kerroksessa. Kuusi erilaista kasvityyppiä vuorottelevat kerrosten mukaan, mikä antaa julkisivulle vahvan liikkeen tunnun. Materiaaleina käytetään betonia, lasia, metallia, puuta, alkuperäistä kasvillisuutta ja LED-valaistusta. Biofiilinen suunnittelu tuo luonnon osaksi kaupunkia ja tukee asukkaiden viihtyvyyttä ja hyvinvointia. Yhteiset tilat kannustavat sosiaaliseen kanssakäymiseen.
