The architecture is interlaced with the landscape along the periphery, flowing into the building, and also opening up views towards the adjacent botanical garden. The landscape design strategies include: a seasonal landscape, a narrative landscape, an integrated landscape, an iconic landscape, and a programmatic car park for corporate events.
