LVMH Tower
New York 171921, 57th Street, New York, USA

The project skilfully deals with Manhattan’s building regulations turning them to prevent the massive reflected presence of the IBM tower opposite, while setting a landmark for the city and emphasizing LVMH’ s prestigious identity.
The tower soars up to the sky playing with prismatic vertical volumes made out of various types of glass.
