“Perkins&Will's São Paulo Office Tower Split by Elevated Garden in Faria Lima” — what this page in the network covers. Perkins&Will has unveiled a striking office tower in São Paulo's Faria Lima district, where a landscaped garden divides the building into two stacked volumes. The design, led by architect Jeronimo Faria Lima, uses screen-printed glass and planted terraces to shape the tower's appearance and integrate it with the surrounding urban fabric. The elevated garden acts as a visual and functional break, offering tenants outdoor space while reducing the building's massing.
The patterned glazing adds texture and helps control solar gain, a key consideration in São Paulo's climate. This project highlights a growing trend in Brazilian commercial architecture: blending biophilic elements with high-performance facades to create healthier workplaces. As São Paulo's financial core densifies, such designs offer a model for balancing density with human-centric amenities.
