Construction on Avenida Cordoba 120 has begun. The 35-storey office tower located at a key junction between the traditional city centre and the main entrance to Puerto Madero – the harbour area –, will be a sustainable addition to the central district of the city, creating a unique new presence on the skyline. David Summerfield, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners, said: “Avenida Cordoba 120 combines structure and nature to create a landmark building that will set a new benchmark for office buildings in the region. Through its materiality and spatial variety, it offers flexible workspaces for a range of companies, while enhancing its urban surroundings.”

Avenida Cordoba 120 的建设已经开始。这座 35 层高的办公大楼位于传统市中心和 Madero 正门之间的关键交汇处——海港区——将成为城市中心区的可持续补充,在天际线上创造一个独特的新形象. Foster + Partners 工作室负责人 David Summerfield 表示:“Avenida Cordoba 120 将结构与自然相结合,打造了一座地标性建筑,将为该地区的写字楼树立新的标杆。通过其物质性和空间多样性,它为一系列公司提供了灵活的工作空间,同时改善了其城市环境。”

The strategic site is at the crossroads between Avenida Cordoba, and Avenida Alem, two of the biggest thoroughfares in the city, and bound by Avenida Madero to the east.   The triangular form of the building maximises views towards the Rio de la Plata river and towards the dense city centre, while the lift core located along the southern façade enables large, flexible and spacious floorplans. Seventy per cent of the ground plan is open public space in the form of a lush garden that continues below the building, which is raised above an inviting café nestled within the landscape.

该战略要地位于 Cordoba 大道和 Alem 大道(该市最大的两条主干道)的十字路口,东面与 Madero 大道相连。建筑的三角形形式最大限度地提高了对拉 Plata 河和密集市中心的视野,而位于南立面的电梯核心筒实现了宽敞、灵活和宽敞的平面图。 70% 的平面图是开放的公共空间,呈郁郁葱葱的花园形式,一直延伸到建筑物下方,该花园位于坐落在景观中的迷人咖啡馆的上方。

The garden offers a natural oasis for office workers and the public to relax while surrounded by greenery and for larger scale corporate events. The vegetation travels up in the form of triple-storey terraces that create outdoor spaces for informal meetings throughout the tower. These seven terraces along with the five internal atria form the main organising principle around which the office floorplates are designed. The offices are grouped together as a series of villages centred around these open spaces, allowing visual connections throughout different levels. The building features as many as twenty different plan variations based on four basic floorplates, allowing organisations unprecedented choice.

花园为办公室工作人员和公众提供了一片天然绿洲,可在绿意盎然的环境中放松身心,并可举办大型企业活动。植被以三层露台的形式向上移动,为整个塔楼的非正式会议创造了户外空间。这七个露台以及五个内部中庭构成了办公室楼板空间设计的主要组织原则。这些办公室被组合成一系列以这些开放空间为中心的村落,允许在不同层次上进行视觉连接。该建筑具有基于四个基本楼层的多达二十种不同的平面变化,为公司提供了前所未有的选择。

Featuring a raised entrance lobby, Avenida Cordoba 120 can be accessed by a promenade of terraced steps as well as by escalators banks to the east and the west.   A dedicated cycle ramp and accessible entrance is located towards the south-eastern apex of the building. Using a restrained material palette of wood, fair-faced concrete and polished stainless steel, the lobby of the tower actively creates a welcoming atmosphere. The folded stainless-steel façade is designed around a ‘picture frame’ principle that frames views out to the city below and reduces heat gain. The design targets a LEED Gold rating, adding to its sustainable credentials.

Avenida Cordoba 120 设有凸起的入口大堂,可通过梯级长廊以及东侧和西侧的自动扶梯抵达。 一个专用的自行车坡道和无障碍入口位于建筑物的东南顶点。 塔楼的大堂采用内敛的木材、清水混凝土和抛光不锈钢材料板,积极营造出温馨的氛围。 折叠的不锈钢立面围绕“相框”原则设计,将下方城市的景色框起来并减少热量辐射。 该设计的目标是获得 LEED 金级评级,增加其可持续发展的资质。
