Architecture
editThe project is based on the idea of flow and motion. Guillot Arquitectos studios created a design with office areas, service areas, and natural light and air circulation that incorporates shifting patterns and plane play in different levels to form a central space - the chamber of light and air. This feature acts like a central artery in the building, distributing air based on the dominant winds and directing natural light into the interior areas.[2]
The building received its LEED Golden Certificate in 2010.[3]
