The 43-level Eporo Tower has been the landmark for the Coptic Church that comprises 307 residential apartments above a 12-storey “jewel box” podium which houses three levels of modern worship spaces and ground level retain and cafes.
The tower’s design reflects the ancient church’s desire to move with the times whilst retaining the Coptic theology. Modernism and tradition mould into one with a combination of contemporary architecture and classic detailing. Features include six 5-meter high stained glass windows on the podium and a Coptic Cross geometric pattern adorning the glass cladding of the tower.
Above the worship spaces, the residential floors create a striking distinction with the iconic glazed curving façade and contemporary interiors design for city living. Apartments feature floor-to-ceiling glass panels with city views, and the exclusive Resident’s Lounge on Level 11 presents bold lines and timeless contrasting tones and textures, creating a relaxed environment to entertain friends.
Our scope of work to this project includes design, engineering, manufacturing, procurement and supply (CIF) of unitized curtain wall panels.
