The design includes black polished granite floors and a matching granite reception counter, a raised ceiling bordered by dropped soffits and down lights accented with mahogany crown molding and elegant alabaster pendant light fixtures to provide an inviting atmosphere. The elevated forms also assist with a geothermal cooled waterscape that includes cooling lakes that create a microclimate in the shadows of the structure, recycling grey water to radiate and reflect coolth on the coloured aluminium soffits above.
