One of the standout features of this architectural marvel is the basement, which houses a breathtaking rainforest garden and a captivating water wall.

Separated by a glass cube, this extension acts as a visual bridge, allowing residents to experience the sensation of stepping outside when moving from the old building to the new. This thoughtfully designed feature not only accentuates the architectural contrasts but also seamlessly connects the past with the present.
