Maringa Tower - Pininfarina Unveils The Design of Maringa Tower, The First of Five Collaborative Projects with Plaenge in Brazil

Miami, FL. – June 5th, 2024 – Pininfarina, the world- renowned Italian design house, is proud to unveil the design of Maringa Tower, the inaugural project in its groundbreaking collaboration with Plaenge, one of the largest privately held construction companies in Brazil and a reference in the high-end real estate segment. This partnership aims to create a collection of five iconic residential towers that will redefine urban living across Brazil, setting new benchmarks for design and luxury.

Maringa Tower exemplifies the essence of this collaboration, seamlessly integrating Pininfarina’s innovative design with the unique character of Maringa. Considered one of the greenest cities in Brazil, Maringa has one of the highest concentration rates of green areas, along with being a commercial, political, and cultural center. Drawing inspiration from the local community and the concept of wellness and connectivity, the building features a dynamic, woven design that creates unique forms and experiences for its residents.

The tower’s design prioritizes natural light, airflow, and the inclusion of green spaces to promote a healthier lifestyle, aligning with the growing demand for eco-conscious urban living solutions. The interiors draw inspiration from the luxury of boutique hotels, offering exquisite communal areas and personalized services that cater to the discerning tastes of modern residents.

“Maringa Tower showcases our vision for this exciting collaboration with Plaenge,” says Samuele Sordi, Chief Architect Officer at Pininfarina. “Starting from its façade, which creates a connection between the building and the Parque do Ingá located in front of it, Maringa Tower represents our commitment to creating living experiences that seamlessly blend with the unique character of each location while inspiring, and elevating the everyday lives of residents.”

In addition to its groundbreaking architecture, Maringa Tower also features a meticulously designed public artwork that engages dynamically with the surrounding cityscape. This piece serves as a cultural landmark, enriching the environment and integrating the building more deeply into the cultural and visual narrative of Maringa. The artwork theme will be characteristic of all the five projects of this collaboration between Pininfarina and Plaenge.

Each apartment offers unobstructed views of Park Ingá, providing a unique and memorable experience. These façades face one of the greenest cities in Brazil. Interiors feature locally sourced materials and cultural elements harmonized with state-of-the-art technology. The complex will be charmingly and vibrantly sophisticated by contrasting warm and cool materials.
