Product Description
Il Dritto / Allianz Tower miniature on scale 1:4000
Located in Milan, Italy
Real world height: 249m
Available in versatile, fine detail and professional plastics.
---
Il Dritto (The Straight One in English) or Allianz Tower is currently one of the tallest buildings in Italy at 209 m (686 ft)—249 m (817 ft) with broadcast antenna—and with its 50 floors is the tallest to the roof. It was designed by the Japanese architect Arata Isozaki and Italian architect Andrea Maffei.
In 2016, Il Dritto was nominated by Emporis as the third-best skyscraper that was completed in 2015.
The tower is composed by eight modules by six floors each one. The façade of the module is 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.
The tower’s clunky, unpleasant, seemingly incohesive and blocky design has been a source of continuous controversy. Milan’s mayor was quoted in 2018 that he always thought the building was ugly, but only after the neighbouring elegant Generali tower was built he realized how trully hideous Allianz Tower was. There have been calls to demolish the building due to the destructive impact the Allianz Tower has had on Milan’s panorama.
