The building houses facilities for a production process which consists of bottled glacial water. The shimmering glass box is 18 x 18 metres and 6 metres high. The four façades are clad in toughened glass with a black opaque coating and a tapered soil base.
Because of the weather conditions, glass offered a good skin solution, while simultaneously reflecting the surroundings. The reflections become a living ornament, framed by an invisible line around the building, but also cropped by its edge, creating a surreal, polygonal image with in a broad landscape, a natural "picture in picture".
