The indigo blue color combined with the grey, steamboat like color on the building's facades, along with their geometric recessions and extrusions generate the illusion of being in front of a magnified ship detail.
The hallways give you the feeling of walking along the wooden decks of a ship, trying to find your cabin. A swimming pool and a small court on the terrace "deck" offer pleasure and infinite views of the harbor. The journey is not over yet ...
