The building's design incorporates motifs inspired by geological strata and slopes, evoking the area's geographical characteristics. The exterior walls utilize special formwork to create repeating layers of rough-textured indentations, representing the uplifting of terrain and geological layers. These textured surfaces are alternated in height with adjacent planes and contrasted with the staggered façade, creating a rhythmic and dynamic effect throughout the structure. Situated on a corner lot, this presents a striking façade through its diverse combination of elements.
