The facility spans over an area of 50,000 square feet and employs a host of green features. The office sports an open-plan concept making extensive use of full-height and transom glass. This helps in optimum penetration of natural light throughout, which in turn reaps energy cost cuts. The building has also been equipped with energy-efficient LED signage and lighting controls which further slash energy consumption.

The wood incorporated in the millwork and workstations of the office are Forest Stewardship Council-eligible. Use of low-VOC paint, adhesives as well as carpets add to the sustainability factor of the facility. The office also imbibes sustainable education elements.
