Mahler 4EEA – 'The Rock' - Permasteelisa Group

Mahler 4EEA, aka ‘The Rock’, is a striking landmark that plays on different volumes and shapes, transforming from light to heavy materialisation as it rises.

This impressive tower has three distinct sections, and looks different from every angle. The bottom of the façade is characterised by glass and transparency, while the upper section is made of natural stone. Between sits a blend of stone and glassy panels, creating a pleasing transition between levels.

The project

The concept

The transparent element of the lower part of the structure maximises daylight and interaction with the outside. The natural stone façade of the top section has a diversity of slopes, cantilevers and recesses, giving the building its unique appearance and name.
