The new outter skin appears to be a perforated surface organized in a mathematical, cell-like arrangement. This unique façade tests some prosolve370e panels that are made up of photocatalytic pollution-fighting technology in urban environments.

The material allows for there to be a combination of aesthetic, functionality, and sustainability in design as it also helps to diffuse light and air turbulence.

Prosolve370e reacts to ambient daylight and because it is located near the center of the city, the structure’s skin will be more suitable to reduce a bulk of the pollution in the air.
