The faceted façade undulates with horizontal awnings with distinctive rain covers and window-walls to emphasize the unique shape and curves of the building. The elliptical shape allows maximum light
penetration to the office area. Vertical greening with local plant resources on the east and west
façades as well as the rooftop enhances energy efficiency. There are also balconies on each floor on
the north and east sides to offer an outdoor experience with a pleasant view.

The interior space is designed with reference to traditional ink paintings – by using different shades
and tones of grey, together with lights and reflections, to express different feels and create a sense of
neutrality and calmness. Two podium floors with banks and food and beverage outlets activate the
urban life on lower levels.
