这座42，000平方米设施的外部有一个玻璃立面，上面有深水平的铝制百叶窗，用来调用一叠倾斜的纸的图案。相比之下，地面上的存储设施有一个更不透明的立面，与建筑物的其他部分隔开，地面上有一个凹进的玻璃立面和周围的露台。在地面，建筑物的堆叠和倾斜的形式也定义了一个中央广场，这有助于分隔和描绘建筑物的多个入口和功能。

The exterior of the 42,000 square meter facility features a glass facade with deep horizontal aluminum louvers, intended to invoke the motif of a skewed stack of paper. By contrast, the above-ground storage facility, features a more opaque facade, separated from the rest of the building by a floor with a recessed glass facade and surrounding terrace. At ground level, the building's stacked and skewed form also defines a central plaza, which helps to separate and delineate the building's multiple entrances and functions.
