The 110,000 sq ft building comprises 7-storeys over a 2-storey basement and is designed with a glass and aluminium curtain walling façade combined with a glazed internal wall which provides natural daylight onto the circulation route and a view into the atrium.
Stone cladding is used to group sections of the building together and reduce scale, while a stainless steel mesh provides additional screening to the bedrooms on the upper levels. This architectural mesh creates an interesting feature along the façades which shimmers as it catches the light by day, and creates a back lit screened effect by night when the bedrooms are in use.
