Shape of the building
Smooth lines dictate the shape of the Wave Phenomena implying a sense of movement when passing by. From the top view the floor lines look like waves rolling over the beach. You can experience the dynamics of the building by walking along the edge of the different floors. By using ramps fluent transitions are made between the different levels which are coherent with the smooth lines of the building.

Construction of the building
The construction of the building is inspired by a weaving structure. Three kind of layers are weaved, therefore arises a very interesting structure. It is possible to stretch the structure, as in the picture below. With this structure, it is possible to regulate the daylight into the different parts of the building.
