Hora Vertikale is a new project in Tirana, which presents residential buildings arranged in a vertical settlement - "Hora", in ancient Albanian. Below, there is a vibrant new park, along with various amenities and opportunities for both residents and visitors. Furthermore, the project aims to engage the neighboring local community. It is conceived as a unique vertical village located in the middle of a large green city. Intended to vertically portray the chaotic nature of Tirana, the project places a strong emphasis on sustainability. Locally sourced materials from Albania are used to minimize the carbon footprint and support the local economy. The result is a building that leaves a lasting impression on both visitors to the city and those who live there. The design integrates urban and rural elements, with the towers expected to become iconic landmarks, offering a visually striking presence and a distinctly local atmosphere. From a distance, the buildings present distinct heights and perceptions from different views around the city. Up close, the playful interaction of the concept reveals its secrets and the compositions are drawn from the main road towards the park at the back, creating the most appropriate transition in terms of scale. Using abstraction and synthesis as working tools, the project seeks to offer a specific interpretation of Tirana's features, presenting a distinct but essential and authentic outline. The entire project was developed using seven different types of domes, each of seven floors – an average height characteristic of most buildings in Tirana. Each cube embodies a unique concept related to art and also inspired by the local language. The initial construction phase consists of thirteen domes, each measuring 22.5m by 22.5m at three different heights, which gives the composition a fluid and dynamic profile.
