The skyscraper was designed by the EMBT Architects firm. Architects Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue created its unique look. The building was finished in 2005.

In 2017, Naturgy moved its legal headquarters to Madrid. This move happened because of the political situation in Catalonia at the time. Naturgy's Madrid office is in the Hortaleza district. This office is a group of 14 buildings that Naturgy bought in 2016.
