Sky 56, Office skyscraper in Part-Dieu district, Lyon, France
Sky 56 is an office tower with a distinctive pleated shell exterior and a crystalline interior layout spanning 14 floors. The structure houses office space, features private terraces on multiple levels, and provides parking for occupants.
The project was built between 2016 and 2018 as part of the district's modernization efforts. Its completion reflects the ongoing transformation of the business quarter during this period.
The building marks a shift in the district's appearance with its distinctive curved design and glass-steel composition that sets it apart from earlier architecture in the area.
The building is easily accessible and clearly marked as a central landmark in the business district. Visitors should note that the surrounding area is pedestrian-focused and parking should be arranged in advance.
The exterior walls create shifting visual patterns depending on where you stand, making the building appear different from various viewpoints. This feature makes it a fascinating subject for those interested in how architecture changes with perspective.
