IQON
下载所需积分: 4
IQON被构想为一个垂直社区，也是毗邻的卡罗琳娜公园的立体延伸——绿意沿着建筑立面攀援而上。其标志性的弧形转角被层层露台环绕，形成360度观景视野，可俯瞰公园、基多城区以及皮钦查火山。
裸露美学 定义了这座建筑的个性：素混凝土外露结构同时承担建筑承重功能。32层高的"像素单元"通过旋转堆叠，在优化景观视野的同时为每户创造专属露台。项目充分融入厄瓜多尔温带生态优势——这个全球单位面积植物物种最丰富的国度——将本土草木尽可能植入建筑肌理。
底层广场集公共空间、商业单元与艺术装置于一体，形成连接公园与社区的东西向新通道。大堂空间材质语言由外立面的粗犷质朴转向精致考究：大理石地坪衬托定制木纹接待台，混凝土节点呼应外立面。深翡翠绿从天花铝板蔓延至信箱系统，直至黑钢门洞后的电梯厅空间。
生物亲和设计 通过建筑化的雕塑花池，将公共空间的绿意引入每户私域。这些花池成为公寓内部的混凝土艺术品——既为上层露台树木提供根系生长空间，又将建筑立面转化为基多葱郁生物多样性的庆典。
该项目更扮演着城市苗木基地的角色：当露台植被超出容器容量，便可移栽至城市各公园，形成"公园-建筑-公园"的绿色循环。
顶层无边泳池与观景露台让居民在都市天际线中放松身心。其他配套设施包括健身房、壁球馆、水疗中心、保龄球道、娱乐室及商务中心。IQON是基多首个获得GBCI “绿色商业认证协会” 与IFC “国际金融公司” 联合预认证的EDGE标准混合用途建筑。

IQON is designed as a vertical community, and an extension of the neighboring La Carolina Park, which continues up onto the building facade. The building features a notable curved corner, wrapped by terraces that continue around the building's perimeter with views of the park, city and over the Pichincha volcano.
IQON’s architectural identity is defined by its ‘stripped back’ façade; the raw, exposed concrete simultaneously functions as the building’s structure. Individual ‘pixels’ are stacked 32 floors high and rotated to provide the best possible views while simultaneously creating terraces for the apartments. Celebrating native trees and plants, the building integrates greenery wherever possible to take advantage of with Ecuador’s temperate climate and ecology – the country with the most plant species per square meter in the world.
The ground floor plaza includes generous public spaces, retail units, and public art. This central plaza functions as a new east-west pathway, connecting the park to the rest of the neighborhood. Upon entering the lobby, the material palette transitions from the raw, pared-back exterior to a more refined aesthetic; marble stone pavers complement the custom millwork reception desk, and concrete touchpoints nod to the façade. Deep emerald-green tones are utilized on the ceiling tiles, mailboxes, and through to the elevator lobby – an area located beyond a blackened- steel portal.
Quito’s biophilia is carried from the public spaces below into the private domain of each home via the sculptural planters that are integrated into the architecture of the building. The planters become a unique concrete sculpture inside the apartments – creating space for the root zone of the tree for the apartment terrace above – while transforming the façade of the building into a celebration of Quito’s verdant biodiversity.
The building also acts as an urban tree farm: once the vegetation planted on the terraces outgrows its planter, it can be replanted in parks all over the city. In this way, the building becomes part of a green cycle – from park to building, and back to park.
An integrated lap pool and terraces at the top of the building offer residents a place to relax while overlooking the city. Additional building amenities include a gym and squash court; a spa; a bowling alley; entertainment rooms; and a business center. IQON is the first mixed-use building in Quito to have a preliminary EDGE certification, granted by GBCI (Green Business Certification Inc.); and IFC (International Finance Corporation).
