The geometry of the building tends to follow organic curves, creating a gap between the floor slabs, which beyond morphology itself becomes a positive resource design help reduce heat gain factors into by shadow areas generated with these gaps. So the design takes into account the parameters maximum energy efficiency and sustainability, to obtain LEED certification.

With respect to the facades and based on an energy analysis is determined that the building will have some system control sunlight that yields the optimal levels of energy efficiency.

The glass plays an important role in contributing to the facades and building thermal comfort. That is why all the floor slabs have a continuous parapet wall height 90cm, which also highlight the aesthetics of the project serves to reduce heat gain inside the building. In the design of these offices contemplate the theme sustainable operation includes low energy consumption, light levels below the standard and standardization of materials.

The architectural project includes the construction of an office building comprised AAA Category 8 levels, 7 offices, a ground floor for retail, in areas of roof garden roof and 7.5 levels of underground parking basements intended.

The building will have the capacity parking based on the regulations of the Federal District, calculated in the following table and distributed in 7.5 Levels of basements, which when projected on average yield levels in total 15 basements.
