The main challenges of the existing building included the limited floor to ceiling heights, residential-type windows. The new facade incorporates more commercial large scale windows, which mitigate the lack of natural light and reintroduces the principles established by the late 19th Century buildings that once occupied the site. At ground level large warehouse window openings were introduced, giving the building a distinctive character more reflective of its use.
