This large garden, besides serving as a hinge element, creates an outdoor space that refreshes and lights the core of the headquarters. It holds the access to the staff area and the overlaid, crossed views from inside across and through it embellish the space. There are some trees, several vertical gardens and a sheet of water in the courtyard.

A new skin has been generated with a mirroring charcoal-grey curtain wall that presents a sophisticated look. The work space reflects the ideas of openness and neutrality. The rooms have been arranged by departments with a predominance of transparency, white colours and grey hues. The main element of the work space is a sculptural staircase in charcoal grey and green colours, the corporative colours, that dominates the area.

Although there is an access from the office building through a walkway, there is also an independent access from the courtyard. The showroom area has been designed as a dark box where a plane-shifting green line leads through the path, thus framing displays, screens and projections.

Both from the garden courtyard and the showroom, there are some windows for workers and visitors to observe the factory at work.
