The project is conceived as a transitional piece between urban density and the openness of the tropical landscape. Its architecture interprets the fluidity of the coastal environment through a continuous and dynamic volume, where horizontality becomes the dominant structural language.

The curved lines that define the envelope are not merely a formal gesture, but a climatic and perceptual one: they regulate solar exposure, soften the building’s scale, and create a shifting relationship between interior and exterior.

The glazed façade, modulated by horizontal elements, functions as a luminous filter, allowing light to move and transform the interior spaces throughout the day. The base of the building is strategically recessed to generate a permeable urban plane, integrating the public program with the street and ensuring the continuity of the pedestrian realm. This urban gesture is complemented by a green belt that introduces the presence of nature into the architectural experience.

In contrast, the upper levels are organized through a rhythmic structural system that expresses both order and lightness. The volumetric composition balances mass and transparency, allowing the building to be perceived simultaneously as solid and ethereal, technical yet sensitive.

The result is an architecture that translates the principles of structural clarity, environmental efficiency, and timeless elegance—merging two programs of distinct spatial and functional complexity within a single volume. The project positions the new Torre Internacional as a contemporary architectural landmark on Ecuador’s coast.

Torre Internacional emerges as an architectural proposal that balances local identity with a global language. Its design establishes a coherent dialogue between urban density and tropical landscape, integrating seamlessly with its context through a formal gesture that emphasizes horizontality, fluidity, and transparency. The curved and modulated envelope operates as an active environmental system that regulates light and temperature, revealing an architecture deeply attuned to both climate and context.

At the ground level, the building opens to the city through a permeable plan that encourages urban interaction and the continuity of public space—creating an experience that transcends its hotel function to become a space of encounter and transition.

The combination of concrete, glass, and vegetation defines a contemporary language of restraint and technical precision, where light and texture become the primary materials of expression. As a whole, the building not only meets the standards of efficiency and comfort but also contributes symbolic value to Guayaquil’s architectural landscape, reaffirming architecture’s capacity to embody modernity, belonging, and urban transformation.
