Technické informace

The building was made using materials either from the local environment such as lime stone in the landscape or to help reduce the building's environmental impact such as precast concrete, low albedo materials and low e glass to improve user comfort as well. All plants selected in the landscape are either local or can easily adapt to the surrounding climate.
