Architecture

The tower was designed by Jesus Diaz y Asociados and is located in the Punta Paitilla district of Panama City. The tower houses a total of 70 apartment units which can go up to 445 m² (4,790 sq ft) in terms of gross usable area. The building creates a camouflage effect against the sky due to the glass work of the exterior glazing, hence the name of "Tower Mirage".
