Characteristics and Impacts
- Consideration of extreme weather conditions, remote constraints on materials, construction schedules and workforce availability.
- Major architectural constraints: building designed with curved roof geometry.

- A perspective of sustainability and energy efficiency (glycol water radiant floor, rainwater recovery basin, variable flow systems, heat recovery).
- Area: 1,370 M²
