 The exterior surfaces covered with geometric pattern executed in granite  Earthquake resistant structure  Observation desk at the top  At the top of each tower are satellite dishes pointing in all directions.

 The smaller building housing government offices is located to the south of the main building.  The two structures are joined by the multi-story portico.  The style of the south building is less vertical and takes on the form of a cluster of buildings.

 Acts as an unifying element  The portico wraps gently around the plaza, joining it to the main building as well as the assembly hall.  Sculptures

 The fan-shaped plaza, modeled on the famous Campo in Siena,  Acts as a separation  Slopes gently up as one moves away from the main structure.  An oasis of rare harmony and tranquillity

Campo in Siena

 The assembly hall is a circular metal-clad structure which looms over the plaza from above the portico.  A round window placed at its center
