It is envisioned as a business complex with a long-term rental policy. The business building provides the maximum spatial organization flexibility, seeing that each floor can be easily divided into separate compartments.

The stretch of space in between the volumes that simultaneously connects and divides, provides privacy for the tenants.

Although contrasting in volume, two soft curved buildings join together in an elegant appearance, due to a combination of their dark brick facade cladding with and a rhythm of apertures, resulting in a unique and recognizable contemporary identity.
