The building form is divided into 3 main components, a glazed block centred around a double height atrium, a brick and aluminium clad wing containing the majority of office accommodation, and a single storey conference block clad in vertical aluminium rainscreen panelling.

The large rooflit atrium, looking onto the cafe space and through to a walled garden, has been designed to foster a new business community, and through the placement of core shared facilities encourage interaction amongst the different users.
