Allianz Tower

Allianz Tower, also known as Isozaki Tower, is a fifty-floor, 209-metre-tall skyscraper in Milan, Italy. Designed by Japanese architect Arata Isozaki and Italian architect Andrea Maffei, it serves as the headquarters of the Allianz Group and the Italian parent company Allianz SpA.Locally nicknamed Il Dritto, it is the tallest building in Italy at 209 m—249 m with broadcast antenna—and with its 50 floors is the tallest to the roof. It is composed by eight modules by six floors each one, with the façade of the module composed by a triple-glass unit slightly curved to outside. The vertical succession of rounded forms create a feeling of slight vibration of the volume of the building as it rises upward. Elevations of the short sides are fully glazed and show the mechanical series of six panoramic lifts going up and down to the various floors of the building.
