The Building

The building is virtually a fluid totem with its form and orientation permitting a full view of its surrounds. Individual floors with curvilinear layouts and maximum overhangs of 3 meters give the tower its interesting, streamlined form. An advanced system of ceramic material on a metal-and-glass structure, designed specifically for high-rise buildings by the architect, is used to clad the structure.
