The square is located in one of the limits of Catalinas Norte: an urban piece of more than six hectares located between the financial center and the passenger port of Buenos Aires. The irregular geometry of the terrain contrasts with the orthogonal tread of the tower that releases around it a surface without definite identity. The project assumes these contingencies as a starting point, proposing a system of spatial organization that finds in each one of the "accidents" of the zero level a stimulus capable of positively influencing the definitive crystallization of its organization. In this way, both the walkable pavement and the vegetal soil required by the LEED standards are dissolved in a formal system that, when projected vertically, manages to particularize each of the limits of the plaza.
