The project (unbuilt) was commissioned by the Anna Bonomi Company; it involved the construction of a linear row of tower houses to be built on a free lot along Corso Indipendenza.

The design sketches show separate towers standing in isolation in a garden; each tower was designed around a central staircase lit by a big glass volume jutting out more or less from the rear façade; from here it was possible to access the four apartments, one on every floor, each with long balconies overlooking the adjoining green area.
