法國諾曼第　阿爾塔之塔

Overlooking the Bassin du Roy and the Bassin du Commerce, at the heart of Auguste Perret's UNESCO World Heritage rebuilt center, near Niemeyer's Volcano and in dialogue with the city's landmarks such as the City Hall and Saint-Joseph Church, the 55-meter Alta Tower is part of a narrative where architectural adventure has shaped and identified Le Havre as a distinctive city. Revealing the specificities of this context, it serves as a link between two territories reaching out to each other, one with the other: the city and the sea. Its architecturally expressive design establishes it as a new addition to the city-port's skyline.

本案坐落於法國諾曼第區，濱海賽納省中一座名為勒哈佛爾的市鎮，該處是知名建築師——奧古斯特．佩雷所重建的聯合國教科文組織世界遺產中心之核心區域，歷史背景極為濃厚。此項目亦與巴西建築師奧斯卡．尼邁耶，於 1982 年完成的經典建築 Le Volcan 毗鄰。其獨特的落址處、絕佳的視野，和極富表現力的幾何外觀設計，使之成為港口天際線上的點睛之筆，不僅以獨特外觀提供周圍居民多樣化的觀賞視角，內部更打造功能豐富的居住空間。

The plot is located at a nodal point in the history of Le Havre's reconstruction and its built forms. This strategic position, at the intersection of the two urban grids proposed by Perret's general plan, gives the building a unique character and geometry. With great visibility and exceptional views of the docks, it provides a variety of perspectives for nearby residents and diverse spaces for occupants. Playing with the idea of movement, background, and multiplicity, its volumetry accompanies different scales in a game of expansion. The concrete mesh embraces the building's structure, accentuating the twist and torsion that accompany its upward transformation.

該建築高達 55 公尺，居者可俯瞰羅伊河和商業河，且與市政廳、聖約瑟夫教堂等地標交相輝映，成為城市和海洋的聯繫樞紐。設計團隊揉和「動態性」、「歷史性」以及「多樣性」三種設計概念，利用混凝土以網眼型態，包覆並伴隨量體向上旋轉和扭曲，旨在放大整體的動態視覺效果；各樓層採開放式配置，以適應未來不同的居住需求。

Living here means understanding and learning about the surrounding city. It means appreciating the magnitude and richness of the urban fabric that constitutes this exceptional site. Residents are aware not only of the city's unfolding heritage before their eyes but also of the extraordinary potential of this expanded territory. Both an emergence and a landmark, the Alta Tower also embodies an ambition for the singularity of each residence. The open plan of the floors allowed for "customized" typologies to be configured. Personalizing one's future home was possible from the design stage. The housing question here carries values, uses, typological diversity, dynamism, and optimism. Embracing the future with ambition, the building is a demonstration of vertical living in an urban setting.

在此處生活，便是與該座城市展開相互地理解與對話。居民在感受都市規模與豐富度的同時，亦能察覺城市發展所遺留的歷史足跡，以及廣闊土地所蘊含的非凡潛力。阿爾塔之塔不僅是一座新興建築，更成為了一座城市地標；本項目除了在建築規畫與細節耕耘仔細開發外，更融入居住品質、功能、和多樣性等多項議題，體現其渴望完整城市垂直住宅項目的設計野心。
