To address the harsh afternoon sun, Aedas oriented the building in an L-shape with its solid face facing west. This unique shape posed structural challenges, especially in maintaining an open-plan layout.

Structural engineers, led by Andy Mak, developed a tailored support system. The L-shaped office areas were arranged to create a tapering architectural effect, with each leg of the L slightly offset from adjacent floors. This required a carefully coordinated column layout that also integrated with the basement car park.

Advanced modeling was done using Revit software, which was integrated with Aedas’ Rhino models. Multiple iterations were conducted to optimize the column arrangement.

The link bridges played a dual role: they were a key visual element in the atrium and the only route for building services to reach office spaces. These bridges also anchored the L-shaped floors to the lift shafts.

High-strength reinforced concrete provided structural integrity, while post-tensioned concrete was used for office floors to handle tension from the tapered columns.
