About

Volumes of different heights define a public square and connect surrounding streets through a central lobby.

Projecting façade elements alternate with glazed and solid panels. The tallest volume reaches 67 metres, while a lower volume accommodates an auditorium.

Sustainability

The existing structure is kept and wrapped in a new high-performance envelope with perforated aluminium louvres that shade the offices and bring in daylight. The building is certified LEED Platinum.
