Torre Europa, National historical monument in Chacao, Venezuela.
The fourteen-story office building at Francisco de Miranda Avenue features a sharp corner design with self-supporting facades and curtain wall windows.
Architects Carlos Gómez de Llarena and Manuel Fuentes completed Torre Europa in 1971, introducing advanced structural elements including slabs constructed every two floors.
The building earned the National Architecture Award at the VI Biennial of Architecture in 1976 for its contribution to Venezuelan architectural innovation.
The ground floor incorporates commercial spaces and bank branches, while the strategic placement of vertical circulation cores enhances movement throughout the building.
The tower's emergency stairways were designed as an independent volume, establishing new safety standards before they became common practice in high-rise construction.
