Monk MacKenzie has designed a heroic and sculptural office building that rises from the earth like a giant piece of land art. The architects have transformed a flat site and generic programme into an ethereal and other-worldly project through an impressive dedication to symmetry. A decision to use the landscape to tie the building down and soften its bulk is inspired, and the dramatic, parabolic forms used in a top-lit atrium add air and light. The beautiful organic form combined with polished detailing in earth, stone, GRC and concrete is full-on architectural drama on an epic scale.
