A helical twist runs through the tower, with each rhomboid-shaped floor plate aligned to shift the tower around its vertical axis gently. The twist reduces as the levels ascend so that no two stories are completely aligned. This curvilinear form tends to represent the centripetal forces of the three axes of the city converging at its base, creating a vortex of living. The neutral facade scheme induces lightness to an elongated building and creates a vibrant dialogue with the surroundings. Inclined white columns running up either side of the twist provide a visual link to the white podium below that extends to the rear of the tower and holds a retail complex.

A double facade of louvres and glazing deflects the sun, providing environmental control for each floor. When the tower is occupied, it will host 500 office spaces.
