Concept The Discovery building was conceived from the inside out by architects Boogertman + Partners . At the core of its design concept is the creation of a rich internal environment within and around which the Discovery community can thrive . At all times the architectural design considerations are centred around the human experience of the space . This concept resolved itself into two large , sun filled internal atria around which the open floor plates were arranged . The atria are enclosed by 2,800m 2 of glazed roof , with all pause areas and agile spaces opening into them . Connecting these atria to one another is a central concourse , within which a stack of escalators links double volume bridges that stitch the floorplates together . The concourse space was conceived as a ‘ grand central station ’, a literal and figurative interchange between the company and its clients . The roof of the building is a landscaped retreat , accessible to all employees ,
