This project resides in an exclusive development called Bosques de Santa Fe, within a ravine which has been cleaned and rehabilitated, making place to high-priced housing with a private first-class golf course. The project consists of two twenty six level towers with three underground parking levels. The lot destined for these buildings is located in the east end of the development, serving as a barrier, limiting views within Bosques de Santa Fe.
Through the idea of making the horizontal cuts of the various platforms evident, the horizontal planes of the whole building became stronger in order to give the whole façade the sense of movement, differing it from the traditional skyscraper.
The position of the buildings responds to various restrictions, particular to the land, and to the intention of accentuating the best views of the golf course.
