Torre Realia BCN
Torre Realia BCN by Toyo Ito, 2009
Plaça d'Europa, L'Hospitalet de Llobregat
Barcelona, March 2017
“The office building – orthogonal in form and positioned perpendicular to the central axis of Plaza Europa (at 30o to Gran Vía) – marks the end of the plaza and engages in a dialogue with the bordering structures symmetrically located on the other side of Gran Vía (two orthogonal towers perpendicular to the axis). This is even more apparent when one sees that when the core of the office building reaches the façade it is cut by an invisible vertical plane that is aligned with the central axis of Plaza Europa.” (Porta Fira Towers, ArchDaily)
