Due to the size of the building, the overall design feels very heavy and the center does not receive as much natural light due to its distance from exterior windows. To remedy this, an atrium is added to the middle, cutting a circular tube through the building and topped with a glass dome. A garden is designed on the rooftop around the dome with geometric pathways that mimic those of the park located northeast of the building to create a conversation between the two green spaces.

The project also takes floors 10, 11, and 12 of the building’s northeast tower and converts the space into an artist’s studio and residence for Mark Bradford, a contemporary artist that specializes in large-scale paintings. The 10th and 11th floor are combined to create a double height ceiling for a grand exhibition and studio while the monumental feature staircase connects it to the residence above. The residence itself is categorized into public and private spaces, with communal areas located towards the east and bedrooms towards the west. Materials for the interior walls, flooring, and countertops are carefully chosen for a cohesive and welcoming living environment that reflects the warm tone of the existing limestone on the building’s exterior.
