This proposed Oricon Tower introduces a new landmark for Tirana, Albania conceived through the collaboration of Pritzker Architecture Prize-winning Portuguese architect Eduardo Souto de Moura and Porto-based OODA. Designed as a gateway to the Albanian capital, the fifty-story tower stands at the threshold between the city's historic grid and its expanding western edge, where infrastructure, housing, and commerce meet. From the outset, the project is guided by proportion, structure, and material.
