\u201cPorth Teigr Tower\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porth Teigr Tower is a multipurpose highrise building at the epicentre of the regeneration of Cardiff Bay. The tower initially houses 1000+ athletes for the 2030 Cardiff Commonwealth Games, later converting to commercial, social and residential spaces. The new landmark of Cardiff features carbon-negative construction, with a majority of structure in timber. The geometry of the building is a response to various elements of the site and its surroundings, from reacting to the global environment of solar and wind exposure to the architectural place-making, creating a destination. The interior spaces are spacious with good exposure to daylight on all sides. The facade features a futuristic ETFE cushion envelope mounted on a structural timber diagrid with its structural geometry developed by computative methodologies. The design is the result of a balance between verticality and sustainability with the help of parametric design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
