818 building in Porto, Portugal by A.AsArquitectos Associados, Lda

The unsuitable proportion obtained by using the square shape of its 18x18m area with a maximum height of 28 m determined the search for a solution that would counteract this. The use of the building structure itself, making it visible in its perimeter elements in addition to the stairway and elevator box, provided the solution for this vertical direction through the execution of a high blade set, with perfect articulation between the structural component and the architectural design
