The "Bosco Verticale" (Vertical Forest) consists of a pair of residential towers in the Porta Nuova district of Milan, and these two buildings are jointly considered among the 50 most iconic skyscrapers in the world. As the name may suggest, these towers are covered with a wide range of trees, leaves, plants and shrubs, and this chic apartment in one of the towers presents a unique opportunity to live surrounded by nature in the middle of the city.
Milan's Vertical Forest was designed by the architect Stefano Boeri and his studio, and overlooks one of the city's newest parks, as well as Milan's business district. Boeri has previously stated that "urban forestation is one of the biggest issues" for him, hence his unusual projects that include not only parks and gardens, but buildings with trees. This sense of nature can be enjoyed from all corners of this 270m2 apartment on the 19th floor, especially from the exterior of the property, with its spacious balconies which make the perfect viewpoint over Milan.
The main living area of this stunning apartment consists of a triple living room where there is a living area, a relaxation area with panoramic views and a dining area with access to the 2 main terraces. This area also leads to a modern kitchen and a laundry room.
Moving to the sleeping area, this city apartment has 3 spacious bedrooms. These include the master suite with breathtaking views of the metropolis, an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. The other 2 bedrooms also have spacious wardrobe areas and en-suite access.
