Facade Retrofit

THE GROVE

The Grove is a LEED-certified facade project concept, designed to recreate a forest in sculptural form and to recall the centenary trees and the significant works of art located in the nearby urban forest of Tenente Siqueira Campos Park. The Tower presents stylized tree branches, consisting of white composite metal, which run vertically across graphite-coloured glass sheets. The dark shades of the glass, symbolizing the density of the forest, embrace the structure in its entirety.
