Of the most emblematic buildings in Parque das Nações, the two towers flanking the Vasco da Gama Shopping Center are intended for services and housing. Inspired by the prow of a ship heading towards the river, each of the 25-story towers (plus 5 underground) develops in an elliptical plan with approximately 1100 m² from a pre-stressed transition floor that suggests the shape of a hull.
