The client desired a special icon with a sense of timelessness, equipped with the flexibility that adapts to the fluid nature of the trade. The solidity and mass of the building, with its contrasting façades, is an artistic answer to the demand. In this building functional efficiency, programmatic flexibility and symbolic form can be complementary rather than contradiction. The outward image of the building appears timeless, while the interior readily adapts to rapidly changing spatial demands. Instead of “form follows function”, here is a case of "form follows time."
