The building was conceived as two separate elements crossing at right angles, with clerestory windows running along the length providing light at high level through the building. Brise soleil shading protects the building from glare providing a comfortable working environment to the office space and the public waiting area, reducing loading on air conditioning. The form and juxtaposition of shapes highlights the entrance.
