Torre Carra

Situated within culturally robust Guatemala City, the 38-unit tower will feature native Italian Carrara stone material to exude warm, inviting tones. Influenced by the historical Italian art and architecture of Pininfarina's roots, the sculpted Carrara marble reflects the firm’s ethos of ‘elegance, purity and innovation’. The art of sculpting –– manipulating mass and texture to mold light and space in order to convey a distinct message –– serves as the main inspiration behind the luxurious Torre Carra.

Seeking to create a high-end, contemporary living experience for local residents, luxury Guatemalan-based residential developer, Grupo San Siro tapped Pininfarina to design the Torre Carra Tower. The tower is slated to become one the tallest buildings in the city once completed in 2024. The building will include a gym, electric scooter and bike station, parking garage, concierge area, children’s playroom, pool with attached deck, and a BBQ pit. Seeking to further integrate the foliage of the local environment into the design to activate residents’ senses, the team also incorporated native flora throughout both private resident and amenity spaces.
