Designed by belgian architect david tajchman, the ‘gran mediterraneo’ is a conceptual highrise building conceived for the israeli city of tel aviv. the scheme brings together a range of innovative functions, including an automated car-park and induction charging stations for electric driverless vehicles. the multistorey tower boasts a topological geometry that contrasts the contemporary orthodox approach of stacked horizontal slabs wrapped with mirrored glass. built with white concrete, the highrise’s façade takes on a cellular appearance, filled with native mediterranean vegetation.
