Voted the “best office building” in the 2023 National Real Estate Award and nominated for one of the most prestigious international awards by ArchDaily as the “Building of the Year 2024,” the ICON DOURO building is part of the ICON development. The development consists of two office buildings designed by architect Luís Pedro Silva, totaling over 22,000 m2, 168 Service Apartments units, 9,000 m2 of green spaces and water mirrors, a gym, restaurants, cafes, and electric vehicle charging points.
The development benefits from a truly unique and strategic location, well-served by public transportation, with direct access to the VCI and AEP, approximately 5 minutes from the Francos Interchange.
According to Maria João Pinto, Office Consultant at Cushman & Wakefield in Porto, “The ICON Douro is a building that will become iconic in the city of Porto, primarily due to its distinctive and imposing architecture. With easily recognizable quality, the building speaks for itself. Designed for the well-being of its occupants, it offers a variety of services that complement it, which, from a talent retention perspective, we know is a key factor for companies that want to see their offices fully operational. It provides comfort, mobility, accessibility, and sustainability.”
It’s also worth noting that the ICON DOURO building excels in efficiency and meets high sustainability standards. It features photovoltaic panels and holds the BREEAM very good certification.
