Building Description
The Casablanca Finance City (CFC) Tower is the fourth-tallest building in Morocco, and the building is used for various businesses in Morocco and global companies around the world. The building is 398 feet tall with a tapered design on top and at the bottom, which gives it a unique look as a city landmark. The building is also wrapped in brise-soleil due to the desert sun in the area. Brise-soleil, which means "sun breaker" in French, is an architectural feature that uses horizontal or vertical louvers, which are low-angle slats, screens, or patterned walls that protect the building from the sun. When you enter the building, the interior features a modern design, with colored walls and geometric forms throughout. The windows inside prevent glare from the sun and provide a nice view of the area. On each floor, there are office rooms for businesses to hold meetings. The unique shape of this building makes it hard not to recognize it on the street.
