Prefabricated white metal flutters give the entire structure a buoyant profile. The stone buttresses make the building appear grounded at a more proximal viewing.

Being partly underground, the eccentric mass defines a seamless silhouette adorned by screens in stone and greenery climbing up the roof in a sweep. The facade is created with a double-glazed structural glazing system along with insulated aluminum panels, and the repetitiveness of the grid makes the entire facade appear dynamic.
