Residential building block with 6 floors located on the still virgin coast of Karaikal and facing the Bay of Bengal.
Like a podium, the parking spaces are located at the base of the building.
The configuration of the floors is developed in a ring around a central patio where the communication routes and service spaces are located, which makes it easier for all the living spaces of the apartments to be turned to the outer perimeter, favoring ventilation and enjoying the unbeatable views.
As the building rises, it sponges and becomes lighter.
The plan layout varies from 6 to 4 apartments per floor, creating semi-outdoor areas and deep terraces that can be felt as private gardens.
The upper roof is intended as a social and sports gathering area, with an infinity swimming pool that blends into the bay.
