The 22-storey high tower with its lenticular floor plan consolidates the urban structure between the main station and the city centre, which had been dissatisfying to date. The curved façade of the 100-meter-high office building is clad in dark polished granite and is subdivided by single windows. Two mono pitch roofs sloping inwards build the upper end. The higher and more inclined section has been developed as a glass roof.
