Abstract
The new headquarters for the Electronical and Mechanical Services Department has taken the principle of adaptive reuse to a new scale with the conversion of a vacant air-cargo terminal. Sustainability became a major theme as design work progressed, and the building has been reborn using cutting-edge environmentally-friendly approaches and even educational elements to supplement the schedule of accomodation.
