Arquitectonica

Across the globe, Arquitectonica's luxury residential towers are designed to respond to their surroundings while creating distinctive living experiences through architecture, views, and a strong connection to place. This week, we celebrated the topping out of Unico Tower, our latest luxury residential project with Philippine Realty Corporation in Bonifacio Global City. Rising 40 stories (185 meters), Unico is among Arquitectonica's tallest towers in Metro Manila, joining nearby Arquitectonica projects including SM Aura and Pacific Plaza Towers. The tower features two expansive 275-square-meter residences per floor, each served by private elevators. Alternating curved balconies maximize panoramic views while creating a distinctive architectural expression. Congratulations to Philippine Realty Corporation and the entire project team on reaching this important milestone. #Arquitectonica #UnicoTower #BGC #MetroManila #LuxuryLiving #ResidentialArchitecture #Architecture #HighRise #DesignExcellence #PhilippinesArchitecture

As Miami hosts its final FIFA World Cup 2026™ match this weekend, Hard Rock Stadium continues to demonstrate how thoughtful design can elevate the experience of one of the world's biggest sporting events. Designed by Arquitectonica, the stadium's signature PTFE canopy responds to Miami's climate by providing expansive shade while preserving the atmosphere of an open-air venue. The renovation transformed the fan experience, balancing comfort, performance, and architectural expression for more than 65,000 spectators. From the opening matches through the tournament's final games in Miami, Hard Rock Stadium has welcomed fans from around the world, showcasing a venue designed to perform on the global stage. As the city concludes its role in this year's tournament, the stadium stands as a lasting example of architecture that responds to place while creating memorable experiences for millions of visitors and viewers worldwide. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #HardRockStadium #FIFAWorldCup2026 #WorldCup2026 #Miami #SportsArchitecture #StadiumDesign #Architecture #Arquitectonica #PTFECanopy

Last week, Peter Brannan, Managing Director, Asia Pacific & Middle East at Arquitectonica, presented The Connected Hub: Synchronizing High-Density Urbanism with Transit Networks at the Council on Vertical Urbanism (CVU) China Conference in Guangzhou. The session examined the role of transit-oriented development in shaping connected urban environments, drawing on four large-scale, mixed-use Arquitectonica projects across Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Shenzhen. By integrating transit, public space, and mixed-use programming, these projects demonstrate how mobility infrastructure can support vibrant, resilient, high-density cities. Thank you to CVU and everyone who joined the conversation. #Arquitectonica #Architecture #UrbanDesign #TransitOrientedDevelopment #MixedUseDevelopment #UrbanMobility #SustainableCities #CityPlanning

Construction is advancing on the SM Nuvali Office Tower, a 19-story office building designed as a landmark within the SM Group's expanding mixed-use development south of Metro Manila. Responding to the site's unique geometry, the tower's triangular floorplate is extruded into a distinctive slanted form, with curved corners creating a sleek, streamlined profile. Connected directly to the adjacent mall, the building will provide 56,400 square meters of modern workspace for corporate and BPO tenants. With completion anticipated in 2027, the project is steadily rising as a new focal point for the Nuvali masterplan. #Arquitectonica #SMNuvali #ConstructionUpdate #Architecture #OfficeDesign #Philippines
