The ecological design approach was based, on four main concepts for the project: program, thermodynamics, noise control, and structural innovation.
The inspiration for the envelope comes mainly as a result of a design concept of solar and ventilation permeability. Simultaneously, the building facade is responding to a double structural layer; the team has designed a different environmental solution for each layer. The inner structural elements contain a curtain wall system which function is to control the natural ventilation of enclosed floors.
