The building was designed to easily adapt to different possibilities, as its prospective users were not known at the time. There was significant difference of height between the two sides of the property and the building was set on the side with the greatest difference. Hence, when viewed from afar, the building was perceived larger and taller than it was and when viewed from the pedestrian access side, it appeared smaller and lower in height. It was assumed that each floor would also be used by four different institutions. The service units of the long plan that allows the smallest unit on each floor to be used 2.34 times its size opens up to a common space instead of being a closed-off well. The single-storey buildings including units such as galleries, shops, and cafeterias on the platform with pedestrian access are among the most integral parts of scale and functionality.
