The walls that structure the building come from the extrusion of those profiles. Each wall with its angles and turns and in the relation with those next to it, creates some voids overwhelmed by glass surfaces. The windows with their transparency maintain the link between the east and west side of the building.
Is a building thought to be seen from the sides, in the way people crossing the bridge or riding along the river banks can feel the flux of activities in it.
