The new CityLife district is an important reference for contemporary architecture of global significance and a significant architecture for Milan. The designers were asked to identify a solution consistent and integrated with respect to the placement of the building and the architectural choices and composition. They had to take into special consideration: the volumes and the architecture around it (the three skyscrapers, new homes and existing ones, the convention center); the design of the public park; the system of pedestrian and cycle paths and the main roads.
