<div style="text-align: center"> <br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left"><span class="project-desc">THE TOWER</span></div><span class="towercaption"><br />
The main tower reclaims the skyscraper as a civic ornament and a celebration of the human need for aesthetic exaltation. Rejecting the anonymous glass curtain wall, its facades are sculpted with dancing figural silhouettes, ribbed cylindrical volumes, crenellated edges, and exuberant piping in the neighborhood’s own ornamental language.<br />
<br />
The north, market square facing facade erupts with repetitive semiotic forms adorned with the hand-drawn, mural style seen elsewhere in the project. This gives rise to a suggestively linear mid-section which finally blossoms into the modern belfry, resembling an anthropomorphic “head” of the tower, adorned with abstract sculpture and figural articulations, ultimately capped with a composition of cylindrical towers, a motif seen throughout the project. <br /><br />The south facade represents a more contemporary inclination toward translucency and lightness,exposing the structural theatre within, though these aspirations ultimately bow to the decorative language and figural sensibilities of the architectural language of the project. The south facade is capped with a double curved surface in lieu of a typical classical order or gothic arches, and the same composition of cylindrical towers. <br /><br />
The tower engages with the decorative excess of old bell towers while critiquing the mute gigantism of contemporary towers, adopting the extremes of both — scale and ornament — not to resolve them, but to stage our architectural, and frankly, human, impulses at full volume.The Tower is a public work that belongs to the residents of the community and is a physical manifestation of their devotion to the place they live and the neighbors who share it with them.</span>
