- With its orientation based on the Cardinal Points, the building establishes its relationships with the surrounding natural elements: the mountains, the plains, the river, and the hills.
- The complex is composed of two elements: the tower in which are located the offices of the Region and a lower building containing the Congress Centre and other services for the city.
- A new landmark for Torino, a symbolic building, easily recognized, much less the isolated object than the central element of a vast and complex system.
- The project for the new Headquarters of the Region of Piemonte not only creates a dialogue with its adjacent buildings but with its context at a regional scale.
