APPROACH

Flexible Living with Iconic Form

Shaped like a six-leaf clover, the tower offers independent residential units that can be combined for spatial flexibility, each oriented toward either the Caspian Sea or Baku’s skyline. At its base, retail spaces and landscaped courtyards create a lively connection to the city, while vertical townhouses reinterpret high-rise living with the intimacy of garden villas.

A lace-like façade provides solar shading and wind protection, responding to Baku’s climate while giving the tower its sculptural elegance. Designed as a fluid architectural organism across a tripartite site,the project blends continuity, organic geometry, and contextual sensitivity into a singular urban landmark.
