artist Lalalli Senna designs a towering tribute

 

Balneário Camboriú, a city in Brazil‘s Santa Catarina state, is set to make history with the Senna Tower, a 509-meter-tall structure that will become the tallest tower in Brazil and the tallest residential tower in the world. Known for its dramatic skyline of high-rise buildings, the coastal city is the ideal location for this ambitious project, which will redefine both the city’s architecture and the global skyscraper landscape.

 

The designer behind the Senna Tower is Brazilian artist Lalalli Senna, niece of legendary Formula One driver Ayrton Senna. Her design aims to honor her uncle’s ‘heroic journey,’ with the tower representing a symbolic intersection between the material and celestial worlds. This metaphor is made visible through the building’s slim, glass-clad form and a facade integrated with bands of lights that will extend to the tower’s crown, projecting upwards and contributing to its iconic appearance.

 

The Senna Tower is designed as is a tribute to Ayrton Senna, one of Brazil’s most beloved sports icons. The podium will include an immersive space dedicated to the late driver, featuring a race track that will serve as a reminder of his enduring legacy in both motorsports and Brazilian culture.

Multifunctional Design for Luxury Living in brazil

 

The Senna Tower is a collaboration between FG Empreendimentos, a prominent construction firm, and the Senna Brand, which carries forward Ayrton Senna’s legacy. Renderings of the project showcase a sleek and innovative structure, with terraces featuring pools and lush landscaping at the base. This project highlights the convergence of two influential Brazilian families, united by a shared vision to push the boundaries of design and innovation.

 

The tower will offer a wide array of facilities spread across multiple levels. Public spaces on the ground floor will include shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues. Higher floors will host amenities such as a heated pool, wellness center, tennis courts, and a gym. Residents will have access to elevated ‘mansions,’ duplex and triplex penthouses, and state-of-the-art recreational spaces, including a private garage club. The building will be topped by an observatory, offering panoramic views of the city and coastline.

a commitment to sustainability and engineering innovation

 

As the first residential supertall building in both Brazil and Latin America to feature a Tuned Mass Damper, the Senna Tower sets a precedent for engineering excellence. This advanced system minimizes wind-induced motion, improving stability and comfort, especially on higher floors. The innovation marks a significant step forward in the region’s architectural and engineering capabilities.

 

Senna Tower will pursue LEED Platinum certification, a significant milestone that would make it the first supertall residential building in the world to achieve this level of sustainability. Additionally, it will feature Latin America’s first Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), an advanced system designed to reduce vibrations and sway in high-rise buildings, providing enhanced stability and comfort for residents.

 

The tower is scheduled to begin construction in late 2025. If completed, Senna Tower will become the first supertall residential building to achieve LEED Platinum certification, the highest sustainability standard awarded by the U.S. Green Building Council. This certification reflects a commitment to energy efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and responsible resource use, ensuring the tower meets the highest global standards for sustainability.
