and planning of the square has been focused to encourage and facilitate flexibility for social gatherings , outdoor functions , concerts , markets , product launches and general enjoyment of the tenants and visitors alike . This was a crucial design aspect to ensure the urban square has a life beyond office hours and is a place and venue that the public can enjoy 24 / 7 . The overall architectural aesthetic is one of bold , natural and transparent materials that allow each building to develop its own ‘ personality ’ within an overriding architectural language that speaks of contemporary longevity .
