    a skyscraper but it is only possible when the site is large enough.
    • No intersect ion of pedestrian movement by vehicular movement.
    • More incorporation of social spaces.
    • More of green area than the built-up area, thus making it a part of the ecology.
    • All types of units are mixed.
    • The spatial arrangen1ents of the different blocks prov ide different states of sun
    and shadow. with large water bodies provided for influencing the microclimate
    in the recreational spaces between two towers. improving the overall quality of
    comfort and experience.
    • Through stacking the Apartments, the design generates a multiplication of horizontal
    surfaces populated by extensive roof gardens and landscaped terraces that offer more
    green space than the size of the unbuilt space.
