> An alternative to the typology of skyscraper, the building’s loop poses a three-dimensional experience of the work environment and the television services, culminating in a 75-metre cantilever. The interior structures and spaces are designed to represent a combination of interconnected activities that facilitate the entire process of TV-making through two towers joined by a cantilevering bridge. One of the towers house the editing area and offices, and the other news broadcasting.
