The concept of the RP Heights tower is very simple, We just wanted to make something organic but different, more natural and more soft. We were keen to avoid designing another of these “listless, boxy buildings”. Apartments in the tower boast panoramic views of the city skyline from continuous balconies that wrap around the recessed glass facades. This set-back also helps to shade each apartment from direct sunlight during the hot season.

The Tower parallels the twisting fluidity or natural lines found in life. This activation of flow forms an organic punctuation in the landscape and a desire for an urban acknowledgement of enthusiasm. Here, we thrive to challenge the sustenance of commonplace boxy skyscrapers. Our ambition was to provide each resident a unique experience of the city. Continuous balconies widen individual viewing angles. At the macro, the cadence of the floors rising into the sky echo the modular rhythms of the human experience yet emphasizes the movement of an adoring figure. We hope this building can wake up metropolitan desires towards nature, such as sun wind, and certainly human bodies.
