A VISION FOR LOS ELIJO / COLOMBIA

A CITY
WITHIN
A CITY.

What if a skyscraper could feel like a whole city? A place to live, work, learn, heal, connect—and build what comes next.

ONE LANDMARK.
A THOUSAND
WAYS TO LIVE.

A building can be more than an address. It can be a neighborhood, a workplace, a gathering place, and a community—all connected in one vertical city.

Inspired by Colombia’s Cocora Valley, the proposed Torre de David brings homes together with healthcare, education, culture, shops, and public spaces. Around it, a wider district connects industry, innovation, hospitality, and everyday life.

Every layer of the tower has a purpose. The mix below is a vision for planning—not a list of facilities already built.

03 / THE CAPACITYAN ILLUSTRATIVE STARTING POINT

A CITY
OF ~17,000.

A preliminary scenario suggests roughly 15,000–20,000 residents could live in the tower. Workers and visitors would be additional.

The concept model has an estimated 2.09 million m² of gross wing floor area. The midpoint assumes 40% is allocated to residential use, 70% of that becomes apartment space, an 85 m² average apartment, 90% occupancy, and 2.7 residents per occupied unit—about 6,900 apartments before occupancy.

2.09M m² GROSS× 40% RESIDENTIAL× 70% USABLE÷ 85 m² / HOME× 90% OCCUPIED≈ 16,700 PEOPLE

Conceptual estimate, not an engineered occupancy or a promise. Floor plates, lift cores, fire protection, refuge areas, structural systems, and the final program must be designed and independently reviewed. The household-size assumption is informed by Colombia’s DANE household data .

These percentages are a conversation starter. The final allocation depends on engineering, service demand, and local requirements.

04 / THE CITY AROUND ITTHE TOWER IS THE CENTER. LIFE CONTINUES OUTWARD.

THE TOWER
IS ONLY THE
BEGINNING.

A complete city needs room to make things, move things, and come together. The surrounding district gives those activities space to grow.

01

MAKE & BUILD

Industrial manufacturing, workshops, clean technology, logistics, research, and places for skilled work.

02

WORK & CREATE

Offices, labs, studios, education, and spaces for companies to share ideas and build together.

03

GATHER & UNWIND

Homes, nightlife, restaurants, entertainment, parks, and streets where people want to spend time.

04

MOVE & CONNECT

Walkable routes, accessible transit, delivery networks, and a potential underground rail connection.

05 / THE FOUNDATIONSTHE WORK THAT MAKES THE VISION POSSIBLE

THE DETAILS
MATTER.

A community at this scale needs the systems behind it to be as thoughtful as the architecture.

SEE THE ARCHITECTURE
01

Safe movement & emergency response. Independent passenger lifts, freight routes, accessible paths, fire stairs, refuge floors, and evacuation plans.

02

Reliable everyday infrastructure. Power and backup, water, sanitation, ventilation, waste, food delivery, communications, and maintenance.

03

People before the blueprint. Affordability, public access, community input, environmental studies, site selection, and responsible land use.

04

Clean energy and water. Explore solar power, green hydrogen, storage, and efficient water systems, guided by local resources and environmental studies.

05

Financial connections. Explore how xCoin and the planned xPay system could support payments, subject to technical development, partners, and applicable rules.

06

Partnerships that make it real. A hospital, transit, police, schools, and diplomatic facilities require detailed planning and appropriate agreements.

THE CENTRAL CORE / The concept’s central core connects to the wings through three sky bridges. A goods-and-mail system would need a floor-by-floor distribution design; it is not yet established by the model.
