Both of the towers have a triangular floor plan and host a total of 606 apartments. The buildings were designed by Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill between 2005 and 2008 and the project itself was processed by P - T, spol. s r. o., under the baton of architect Juraj Hermann. The project was modified several times and the preparatory phase before implementation lasted several years. The construction of the rwo buildings began in July 2013 and the inauguration took place in 2016. The developer is J&T REAL ESTATE, AS (JTRE) related to J&T.[6] The aim of the complex was to combine and concentrate various functions such as administration, trade, services, hotel and housing.[7]

33 of the 34 floors of each building are habitable, with the top floor being reserved for the cooling systems and technical equipment. There are a total of 932 parking spaces in one underground floor and four above-ground garage floors. In addition to the entrance areas to the residential towers, the ground floor is reserved for shops and services for the complex residents.[7]
