"Panorama Building is an industrial-commercial complex built on the simple square grid logic and relying on the flexibility it permits. Thanks to its enormous dimensions, it holds 400 units with diverse programs and, in fact, functions as a commercial street folded into a closed and sealed structure, with an inner road that outlines the proportions of the entire structure. The building's unique typology produces inside and around it a vast 'backyard' on an outsized, inhuman scale, which enables and facilitates difficult and undesirable interactions among its users and visitors. Externally, the building's position and massive continuity produce spatial impermeability on an urban scale, without giving anything back to its urban neighbors. The project's goal is to transform the Panorama Building into a space that serves its urban environment and its users and facilitates positive activities in and around it by dismantling the mass and transforming the backyard into a pleasant and inviting human space."
