IQON is the tallest building in Quito, Ecuador, and BIG’s first project in South America. The building is comprised of 33 stacked concrete boxes, each rotated to offer stunning views and outdoor terraces for residents. Native trees are planted in the balconies, which can be replanted in the city once they outgrow their planters. The building acts as an urban farm utilising the unique climatic conditions of Quito, one of the highest cities in the world at 2,820m. BIG
