Originally a Multimodal building with family apartments, shops, a cinema, a garden and a shopping center. Tridente is an example of a serie of similar midcentury large buildings built accross Europe and the USA in the 1960’s and 1970’s. At that time each city wanted its own.

And Faro did it here !
