The main characterising part of the facade is the arched curtain wall with inner, hidden structural framework which is built in a white reinforced concrete frame. These various-sized frames randomly join to the ledges. Starting from the fact that an office building has shading needs for good work-experience inside the offices, the building has to be shaded. This problem is solved by using optimized glasses. The split plastered planes make the rear facade moderate.
The monolith reinforced concrete frame structure has flat plate slabs. This structure creates well-dividable floor map with “A+” category office spaces and allows higher number of levels. Parking lots take place on two floors belowthe building. A landscaped inner courtyard and a roof terrace serve the employee’s comfort.
The building is unique in its neighbourhood. In relation to its surroundings, the building looks like a tower. The arched curtain wall, reinforced concrete band has a modern vibe.
