The most characteristic form of the building is defined by the silhouette of the floor slabs. These irregularly cut horizontal planes with rounded corners are grouped into five piles.

The result of this composition is a dispersed building, full of interstitial spaces that serve as courtyards.

The connection between the volumes is made by means of bridges. The floor slabs are randomly extended to connect with the adjacent building, giving rise to an organic and fluid arrangement.
