Key Challenges
The design of the interior is more modern and richer in comparison with similar buildings.
Especially the suspended curve shaped lightning ramps are overwhelming. These were produced as prefabricated parts and then suspended to the final position and finished with jointing compounds. In the corridors, soundproof Rigitone® boards areas covered with thin layer of special final acoustic plaster were also used. Large amount of different multilevel ceilings with special direct or indirect lighting was applied. Finally, lots of normal plasterboard partitions dividing the whole building to many smaller shops were created.
