这座建筑包含了一些建筑设计创新，包括使用彩色阳极化铝幕，这既为北方提供了遮阳屏障，也为整个南北立面提供了强大的视觉元素。根据观察者的位置，屏幕可以显示为一个纯金颜色的元素时，以一个斜角观察，几乎透明时，从直线看。这增加了一个非常动态的质量这些边界外观。

The building incorporates a number of architectural design innovations including the use of coloured anodized aluminium screens which provide both sun screening to the north and a strong visual element to the north and south façades generally. Depending on the location of the observer the screen can appear as a solid gold coloured element when viewed at an oblique angle and almost transparent when viewed from straight ahead. This adds a very dynamic quality to these boundary façades.

东面和西面的琉璃街道由一套统一的幕墙玻璃系统组成，覆盖地板和地板。这是垂直的或倾斜的，或向内或向外每层400毫米，设置为一系列垂直玻璃丝带。玻璃，虽然提供了显着的视觉和热性能，是高度透明的，提供了一个清晰的视野内的活动时，看到路人。

The glazed street façades to the east and west comprise a unitized curtainwall glazing system spanning floor to floor. This is either vertical or sloping inwards or outwards by 400mm per floor, set as a series of vertical glass ribbons. The glazing, although providing significant visual and thermal performance, is highly transparent, offering a clear view of activities within the building when viewed by passersby.

另一个主要的建筑创新是中央中庭，它向办公室楼层开放，有玻璃栏杆或全高玻璃(对于非电信租户而言)。这个空间高达10层楼高，提供重要的视觉戏剧，但仍有足够窄的空间在楼层之间保持高度的视觉联系，让自然光线渗入办公室楼层，并向南和北提供戏剧性的景观。

The other major architectural innovation is the central atrium, which is open to office floors with either a glazed balustrade or full height glass (in the case of non Telecom tenants). This space is up to 10 stories high, offering significant visual drama whilst still being narrow enough to maintain a high degree of visual connection between floors, allowing natural light to filter into the office floors and providing dramatic views to the south and north.

开放式办公区域的空间和高度感知已大大提高，消除了悬挂天花板的需要，暴露了经过仔细考虑和设置的综合冷却梁暖通空调系统。

The perception of space and height in the open plan office areas has been greatly enhanced by eliminating the need for suspended ceilings, exposing the carefully considered and set out integrated chilled beam HVAC system.
