Main Façade

Another distinctive feature of the design is the use of upper spandrel panels, enhanced with horizontal sunshades made of extruded aluminum. These not only enrich the visual identity of the building but also contribute to the interior comfort by reducing solar gain. This portion of the façade includes special IGUs and high-density mineral wool panels, enclosed in robust sendzimir-coated steel sheets for enhanced durability and resistance.
Equally eye-catching are the “Lesene” elements—vertical projections extending up to one meter—crafted from AISI 441 stainless steel and clad with slabs of Roman Travertine. This material choice evokes the historical traditions of Rome and lends the project a sense of prestige and permanence.
Functionality has not been overlooked: many of the glazed panels are operable and open outward thanks to advanced systems combining custom aluminum profiles, high-performance IGUs, and limit-arm opening mechanisms. These allow for natural ventilation without compromising the aesthetic continuity of the façade.

SYSTEMS

Unitized façades with fixed and opening glazing, integrated with travertine marble vertical fins and painted steel horizontal sun-shading system; Ventilated façade consisting of stainless-steel substructure covered with travertine marble mechanically fixed; Pressure plate stick system with high performance DGU; Freestanding glazed balustrades with laminated glass;EI120 fire rated stick and ribboned façades

MAIN FACADE

A core architectural and technical highlight of the project is the unitized curtain wall system that defines the principal façades. The envelope comprises prefabricated modular units installed in sequence, with EPDM gaskets applied along both vertical and horizontal joints to ensure high-performance air and water tightness, as well as integrated drainage pathways. The installation system allows for micro-adjustments in three dimensions via adjustable aluminum brackets, enabling precise alignment and a continuous, flush façade surface.
The glazed units are installed from the exterior, supported by dedicated brackets and EPDM gaskets, and held in place by sleek, machined aluminum glazing beads. Each module is further protected by vulcanized frames that serve as a primary weather barrier. Each unit represents a precision-engineered assembly, composed of extruded EN AW-6063 T6 aluminum mullions and transoms, mechanically joined and sealed with silicone. A 35.5 mm-thick high-spec insulated glass unit (IGU) is integrated into each module, featuring laminated double glazing and a 90% Argon-filled cavity to deliver outstanding thermal and acoustic insulation.

The Torri dell'EUR project is a significant commercial real estate development consisting of five distinct buildings: three high-rise twin towers—each 17 stories and approximately 61 meters tall—and two horizontally developed, low-rise blocks.
A key unifying element among these architectural forms is the central podium, which serves as a shared entrance, along with a large underground slab that connects the entire development.
Strategically located just steps away from the scenic EUR Lake and bordered by Via Cristoforo Colombo, Viale Europa, Via Boston, and Viale America, the project benefits from a prime urban setting.

The fusion of large windows and stone cladding gives the project a luminous architecture that honours the tradition of the area, in a new logic of attention to important values such as quality of life and environmental protection. The project respects the original structure, but it is completed by a new high-performance building envelope, which complies with the most advanced international standards. The development is in fact accredited at the LEED Gold level and is the first in this area to activate the WELL Certified ™ and WiredScore certification.

With a strong focus on material quality, façade engineering, and sustainable performance, Torri Dell'EUR exemplifies the integration of technological innovation and architectural refinement. The project contributes meaningfully to the ongoing urban transformation of EUR, setting a new standard for large-scale commercial developments in Rome.
