Previous locations that have held exhibitions of the Colombian artist's outdoor sculptures include the Champs-Élysées in Paris, Yebisu Garden in Tokyo, Lustgarten in Berlin and Park Avenue in New York City.

On his own sculptures, Botero once said, "I never give particular traits to my figures. I don’t want them to have personality, but rather represent a type that I create. My sculptures do not carry any messages, social or otherwise. What matters for me is the form, the voluptuous surfaces, which emphasize the sensuality of my work. I like the enormous size; it is the fulfillment of my longing for voluptuous round forms.”

Conceptualized by architect Rene Gonzalez, the modern structure—which is made of fritted, patterned glass—has reportedly sold out its 10 luxury homes at a record pace. And now that its onsite sales center is no longer needed, the space has been transformed into a lounge exclusively for the building's soon-to-be residents.

Created to cater to the luxury buyers while their residences are still under construction, the lavish lounge embodies all the plush address has to offer. A carbon copy of a full unit, it comes complete with a full kitchen and access to building's plethora of amenities.

Adorned with art by British artist Tracey Emin and Brazilian sculptor/painter Saint Clair Cemin, the private space can be used a place where buyers may meet with the architect designing their respective units, host private bashes, and mingle with their future neighbors.

The first event that will officially be held in the luxe spot will be a special dinner in early October, during which residents will have the chance to meet Cemin in the flesh.
