这一媒体综合体的设计方法对一座4层办公楼的典型商业规划进行了新的设计。而不是选择四层的块体挤压，典型的四层质量最初是水平分裂为两层楼板块。上层建筑随后进一步向后推，以创造一个较高的底层水平，让上层的租赁也享受一个商店的正面类似于下面的。

The design approach for this media complex takes a new spin to the design of a typical commercial planning of a 4 storey office building. Instead of opting for a four-storey block extrusion, the typical four storey mass is initially splited horizontally into two storey slab blocks. The upper block is then pushed further back in order to create an upper ground floor level, allowing the upper floor tenancies to also enjoy a shop frontage similar to the ones below.

这个新的上层地下平台然后通过一个大楼梯连接到底层，这是用木材平台的一种统一的语言表达的，该平台已经折叠起来以满足地面的需要。由于以店面为利益的租约往往会吸引较高的租金回报，地铺层和底层上层的这种特别安排，使发展商可以赚取较高的租金回报，同时亦为建筑群内的不同商户创造一个社交平台，让他们互相互动和社交。这一姿态不仅有益于建筑群内工作环境的质量，而且还赋予办公建筑群一种特殊的可识别的身份，为发展增添了进一步的价值。

This new upper ground floor platform is then connected to the ground floor via a grand staircase, which is articulated in a united language of a timber platform that has been folded down to meet the ground. As tenancies with the benefit of a shop front tend to attract higher rental returns, this particular arrangement of a ground floor level and upper ground floor level allows the developer to reap higher rental returns while simultaneously creating a social platform for the different businesses within the complex to interact and socialize with each other. This gesture not only benefits the quality of the working environment within the complex, but it also imbues the office complex with a particular recognizable identity that adds further value to the development.
