The brief

The images were commissioned for a tower proposal in Dakar (Senegal), submitted in the context of competitions: two views of the whole and one night aerial view.

The challenge

To make an isolated tower read clearly in its setting: the silhouette, the façade of vertical fins and the base with the plaza and the routes around it.

The tower

From the front elevation to the aerial view: silhouette, base and setting of the proposal.

    In perspective you can see how the tower rests on a low base and how it ends in a cantilevered volume.

  3. 03Night aerial view

    From above the placement can be understood: the tower on a podium with garden, pool and paths around it.
