Raising the design plateau one story afforded the owner views of the Pacific Ocean, therefore a split-level / offset design was introduced to allow gradual ascent to the top of the roof with little effort. A central “void” is created with bridging stairs to allow sunlight and visual connection to the lowest levels of the building.
