The design of the building emerged from the synthesis of several key concerns, all of which were subservient to ESD considerations. The striking features of the building are its simple skillion roof form and large areas of glazing. These features respond to the client’s wish for a light, airy and open office space while creating a contemporary design statement.

Passive ESD systems employed include double glazed windows using high efficiency glass, ventilated double skin roof, large roof overhangs, reverse veneer construction and fully insulated construction throughout. Passive active systems were also installed allowing a high degree of user adjustment and include retractable louvres, blind systems and openable windows throughout.
