The residence

Most apartments in El Poblado sell you a location. This one sells you an altitude.

One hundred and forty square metres, twenty-one floors above Calle 5F. From up here the whole southern arc of the valley opens up — Los Balsos rising into cloud forest on one side, the towers of El Tesoro stepping down the other, terracotta rooftops and jacaranda in between. The glass is continuous across the main living wall, and it slides open onto a long covered terrace that runs the depth of the apartment.

Inside, the plan is deliberately open. A white-lacquer kitchen with a lit glass island anchors one end and reads as furniture rather than appliance wall; the living and dining volume flows past it to the terrace without a single door in the way. Dark large-format stone runs underfoot throughout, which is the right call at this elevation — it keeps the room cool and lets the view be the only bright thing in it.

It is a real Poblado address rather than a marketing one. The gym is sixty-three metres from the lobby. Piazza Bella is a two-minute walk. El Tesoro, Provenza and Parque Lleras are all reachable on foot, downhill on the way out.

Edificio Hills

Arrival

Building entrance with a stacked slate wall, brushed steel HILLS lettering and the street number Calle 5F No 30-53

The entry is a stacked-slate wall, brushed steel lettering and a wood-slat gate — a quiet arrival rather than a lobby that announces itself. Vertical concrete fins carry up the facade and shade the west elevation through the afternoon.

Residents share a coworking room, gym, salón social and green zones, with staffed security around the clock.
