A double-storey volumetric steel-and-glass box marks the new frontage, with curtain-wall elements creating transparency and visual connectivity between the plaza and interior retail. A generous public esplanade replaces concrete fences, complemented by terraces, canopies, and alfresco dining spaces. The façade is refined and pared back, with concrete fins and ledges selectively removed, enhancing daylight penetration and ensuring the new activities are legible from the exterior. Sculptural “umbrella” decks punctuate the plaza, functioning as both public art and functional shading, while the simplified roofline and clean parapets give the ensemble a contemporary, refreshed presence.

A carved atrium through the lower floors exposes the original structural frames, establishing intuitive wayfinding and fostering vertical connectivity. The double-height atrium encourages visual and physical permeability between floors, while terraces and canopies introduce light and outdoor experiences. 

The interiors maintain a neutral, minimalist palette that emphasizes materiality and spatial clarity. Terrazzo floors, exposed concrete slabs, and visible service elements form a restrained backdrop for a curated mix of 15 boutique tenants. Color is reserved for wayfinding and tenant fit-outs, allowing each outlet’s identity to animate the atrium and circulation spaces. The combination of simple finishes, open circulation, and carefully choreographed sightlines transforms the formerly rigid office blocks into a lively, human-centric environment that encourages interaction, leisure, and community engagement.
