The office building is an area of urban development in the city of Genk. The building is in the shape of a semicircle whose flat front faces north. The entrances are on the flat front and the curved façades are characterized by horizontal bands made of bricks forming a “brise-soleil”. This iconic tower is also visible at a distance, from the road that runs along the nearby viaduct.
