The building is clad in ceramic panels that offer a modern interpretations of the area’s historic architectural style. The interior spaces are oriented around a central atrium enclosed by an architecturally stunning glass roof that allows light to penetrate deep into the building’s core.

The roof’s asymmetrical canopy is angled to funnel rain water toward a collection cistern. The water is later used to irrigate the interior plantings and flush toilets.

Careful site planning, thoughtful window glazing, and the use of high-performance insulation, solar panels, and other sustainable materials have helped this 213,000–square foot space attain LEED Platinum certification.
