studying all the details of the project from the first look to the building to the smallest details of the interior design

-The areas on the ground floor represent the largest category according to the theory, which is the community for that public area will locate there, such as theatres, exhibitions, retail stores, and also places of performances like runways. 

-The areas on the first floor are more specific and private. They are directed to those interested in studying and developing for that there will be workshops, the library, material library, and general services areas to the beneficiaries such as restaurant and open waiting areas.

-The areas on the last floor are the most private, as they are for distinguished designers to work on their own projects or participate in international and national competitions in addition to a place to judge competitions exclusively with a small showroom for participating designers (VIP). Not only that but there will also be studios for these young designers to work in it if they don't have their own companies and contract offices for them to meet the international companies.

-The design of these areas includes the study of the materials used, the sign system, and the design of furniture, in addition to paying attention to the exterior building shape, which is inspired by the curves of fabric coving the floors upwards, heading to the distinctive upper floor(2nd floor).
