Kohn Pedersen Fox aims to turn the office building into "one of the world's largest redevelopment projects" by carving out set-back terraces from the highest levels of the 45-floor building

Renders show the 200-metre-tall skyscraper, which was originally completed in 2002 and currently has a closed steel-and-glass facade, given multiple cut-out terraces that will function as breakout spaces.

This week's newsletter also featured the launch of Dezeen's latest editorial series, Olympic Impact, investigating sustainability at the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the reopening of Philip Johnson's 1949 Brick House in Connecticut following a 15-year closure.
