1.도시격자 프레임 구조를 건축물의 파사드를 디자인하는 주요한 모티브로 사용되었다.
2. 건축물의 내부 프로그램과 파사드와의 관계성을 읽기 쉽지 않다. 도시와 건축적공간의 연결고리를 일부러 끊을려는 건축가의 숨은 의도가 있다.
3. 주변 저층 건물과 대비를 이루는 건축물의 스케일이 묘한 대비를 일으킨다.
4. 내부중정은 외부파사드와는 사뭇다르게 따뜻한 마호가니 우드를 사용하여 내부 커뮤니티의 활성화를 꾀하였다.

The building has an urban structure like a classical city block, with an obvious exterior and interior which manifests a non exposed, interior living. A great span of apartment sizes as well as the contrast between the row houses and the smaller apartments gives the building a rich inner life.
The exterior, which meets the city, consists of a cohesive black shell. The façade is a composition of cement panels and shiny black glass sheets which together with the windows creates variation and depth.
Towards the courtyard and the large balconies with great windows is the situation different. The façade consists here of white cement panels and mahogany plywood which radiates light and warmth. The courtyard has, because of its small measurements, gotten an interior design like a small core – the common atrium.
