The curved shape is derived from the idea that the vertical and horizontal parts of the building form one continuing inside-out-turned shape, with seamless joints, which makes it futuristic at that time. Spatial structure of the interior is an outcome of the integrated volumes which form the basis of this temporary exhibition living and workspace.

As the design aimed to reach contemporary sustainability standards, all materials used for this curved piece are recyclable or have very low environmental impact.
