Roca 815 Residence
Urban Refuge in Quiet Luxury
Roca 815 Residence is a distinguished example of contemporary architecture that redefines urban living through the lens of quiet luxury—a concept rooted in understated elegance, environmental responsibility, and deep human connection. Conceived as a serene retreat within the city, the project seamlessly blends functionality, comfort, and sustainability in a timeless architectural language.
At its core, the project embraces the notion that true elegance lies in preserving the environment. Every aspect of the building was designed to minimize its ecological footprint while enhancing the quality of life for its residents. The building’s enveloping façade features high-performance thermal insulation, contributing significantly to energy efficiency, while green roofs offer both aesthetic and environmental benefits, reducing heat islands and managing rainwater naturally.
Habitability, in Roca 815, is not merely a functional requirement—it is a philosophy. The residential units are conceived as personal sanctuaries, where comfort, ergonomic design, and a sense of safety converge. Serenity is achieved through a strong commitment to biophilic design, bringing residents into closer contact with nature. Expansive windows frame lush vegetation, allowing daylight and greenery to permeate the interiors and strengthen the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Materials were carefully selected to honor local culture and the natural resources of the region, reinforcing a sense of place while reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transport. All communal areas were designed to promote well-being, social interaction, and multigenerational coexistence. The residence features a thoughtfully curated set of amenities: a fully equipped fitness center, a children’s playroom, a gourmet lounge for gatherings, a swimming pool, and a landscaped outdoor lounge—all envisioned as spaces for self-care, leisure, and community building.
Environmental innovation extends to the building’s infrastructure. The underground garage includes a bicycle storage area and charging stations for electric vehicles, encouraging low-impact mobility. Individual meters for water and energy consumption empower residents to actively participate in resource conservation. The landscaping prioritizes native and site-adapted plant species, reducing irrigation needs and supporting local biodiversity.
As a result of its comprehensive and integrated approach, Roca 815 Residence was awarded the highest level of local sustainability certification—Diamond level—achieving the maximum score across all evaluated strategies. This recognition reflects a meticulous design process that merges architectural excellence with a firm commitment to environmental and social responsibility.
Roca 815 is more than a building—it is a vision of future living where elegance, sustainability, and human wel-being coexist in harmony.
