Unmistakably distinct from neighboring structures, the building serves as an architectural inspiration to the area, while the design itself draws inspiration from its adjacent context - citing both the inherent industrial and nautical overtones of the location and the heavy civil roots of the end-user.

The program includes office and studio space, conference rooms, lounges, balconies and common areas that maximize both interior and exterior views.
