The building is conceived as an abstract, rather hermetic, corpus, set between a busy road, railway tracks, industrial facilities and banal new suburban office buildings. Reflection on the constructive and technological factors is integrated into a design process aimed at optimal living and working conditions. What is evident in the realisation of the Linde MPA Office Building is a sovereign control of architectural procedures related to the materials, the interior design and the structuring of the layer-like nature of the building.
