Vertical SPA
Rome
The hundred meter high tower, next to the Colisseum in Rome creates a debate to explore Rome as vertical city for the future. The challenge of this competition is to discover the belonging to the Eternal City. Therefore the suggested tower functions as an element demonstrative of this spirit, projecting it in the present time and the uncertain future of a city which has survived every kind of event: refreshing, renewing and exposing of the constant rebirth of its vital structure. The tower opens up over the city of Rome by a series of fluid arcs inspired by the shape of Colosseum and the fluidity of water.The Vertical spa is organized with pools, saunas, treatment rooms and gardens.
