Norton Rose Fulbright Tower

COMPACT SITE FOOTPRINT — The site is a compact, irregular shape with a long edge along Discovery Green. This is unique for Downtown Houston, which is full of large city block footprints for office towers.

IDEAL PLANNING MODULE ARRAYED — A 60' x 60' footprint projects onto the site, an ideal dimension for perimeter office layouts and open floor plan opportunities. The module is arrayed along the site, taking advantage of the long park edge. The site constraints provide a unique opportunity to create a side core building, allowing for views to the park.

UNIQUE TOWER FORM — When extruded, the modules create a unique building form, unified while preserving the identity of the 6 individual towers. The breaks in the facade between towers expand the natural light in the building and add corner office opportunities.

CASCADING TERRACES — The towers step down to the north, creating a series of cascading rooftop terraces that provide outdoor space for tenants with prime views of downtown. The stepping of the towers also future proofs views for the empty lots behind.

DYNAMIC PUBLIC REALM — The towers lift from the ground, creating a shaded and welcoming public realm activated with retail and dynamic patios enhanced with park views.
