这项设计挑战了标准的塔台单栋建筑开发方法，但又不牺牲平台地板零售的商业价值，设计的特点是，建筑东侧有一个动态折叠立面系统，将平台和塔台包装成一个正式的连续体。西面有肋墙投影和屋面特征构成相邻墙的延伸，程序功能被这两种不同性质的折叠皮夹在一起，勾勒出场地两侧两个不同的城市特征。这座建筑本身是一个城市地标，标志着一系列古老的附属建筑的开始，西侧的皇后大道中有狭窄的街道正面，东面是独立的当代办公楼。面对剧院巷沿线繁忙的步行交通，零售楼层的自动扶梯区被策略性地放置在扭曲的玻璃皮旁，形成一个生动而迷人的外墙，抵消了过去由于前电影院大楼的功能而出现的步行街的不良空白墙背景。幕墙的非线性折叠给人一种舞台幕布的印象，它的开启揭示了办公室和零售空间的内部，并创造了一个微妙的参考，标志性的皇后剧院，以前占据了该地点。

Challenging the standard tower-and-podium single building development approach and yet not sacrificing the commercial value of podium floor retails, the design features a dynamic folding façade system on the eastern elongated side of the building that wraps the podium and the tower in a formal continuum. To the west the ribbed wall projection together with the roof feature forms the extension of the adjoining wall and the programme functions are sandwiched by these two folding skins of opposing natures, delineating the two different urban characters flanking the site. The building presents itself as an urban landmark that demarcates the start of a series of old attached buildings with narrow street frontage down the Queen’s Road Central to the west and the free standing contemporary office buildings to the east. Responding to the busy foot traffic along Theatre Lane, the escalator zones at the retail floors are strategically placed next to the twisting glass skin to form an animated and engaging façade, offsetting the undesirable blank wall backdrop of the pedestrianised lane in the past owing to the function of the former cinema building. The non-linear folding of the curtain wall gives an impression of a stage curtain, opening to reveal the office and retail spaces within and creating a subtle reference to the iconic Queen’s Theatre that previously occupied the site.
