The central square features a ramp with water feature in the middle and directed towards the observation tower and the site opposite it, constitute a spatial sequence that offers a necessary urban hierachy for a metropolitan complex. The cafe and the waiting space are organized at the side of the central square and overseeing the villages and the state legislative building. The built body re-compasses the traditional way of urban configuration, but it also permits through an elevated decking above the water, the desired and necessary permeability. The height adjustment of the building proposed to the river, offers more than a transition from the historical site and the town district; it offers also the possibilities of an aerial extension of the local lifestyle towards the river and bounce back to the villages opposite, offers great continuity of site.
