Torres Blancas, Modernist skyscraper in Avenida de América, Madrid, Spain.

The Torres Blancas rises 81 meters with 25 floors, featuring circular platforms, expansive balconies, and exposed concrete surfaces throughout its structure.

Spanish architect Francisco Javier Sáenz de Oíza designed this residential tower in 1961, completing its construction between 1964 and 1969.

The building represents a fusion of organic architecture and brutalism, with cylindrical forms that reflect natural growth patterns in its concrete structure.

The mixed-use building contains residential units, garden terraces, communal spaces, and recreational facilities, including a rooftop swimming pool.

The tower's load-bearing exterior walls connect through semicircular balconies that create alternating patterns of light and shadow across its façade.
