Brief Overview:
Torres Blancas was conceived as an experiment in organic high-rise living. Its rounded concrete forms and projecting balconies were designed to integrate light, air, and vegetation into each dwelling. Considered a masterpiece of post-war Spanish architecture, it remains a powerful statement of optimism and creativity in concrete.

Making my concrete model

Torres Blancas, Madrid

The Torres Blancas miniature concrete model is made for people drawn to Brutalism's softer, more organic side. Despite its name, Francisco Javier Sáenz de Oiza's 1969 residential building in Madrid is a single tower of raw concrete. Its rounded cylindrical forms and circular terraces bring light, air and planting into every home, and it's considered a masterpiece of Spanish modernism. This concrete model of Torres Blancas captures that clustered, tree-like profile at 8.5cm, a sculptural piece for a desk, shelf, studio or windowsill. It's for Madrileños, lovers of Spanish architecture and fans of European Brutalist architecture, and it's a distinctive gift for an architect who has seen everything. Each one is hand-cast in solid concrete, heavy and slightly different from the last.
