Point 92 is an office building, with a client brief to maximize the development potential of approximately 180,000 sf of rentable office space, and a building that needs to be highly distinctive, cost effective and marketable. The project features three major architectural expressions and motivation. Foremost is a white facade, with in situ construction made of white cement. Secondly is the building's break out areas in the facade facing south, incorporating a signature landscape terraced decks on two levels, level 7 and 9. Thirdly the building has a sunken or below grade car park deck of six levels, all of which are not visible from the approach road, and all of the floors are natural ventilated, with part of the floors assisted with jet fans. The last feature is the incorporation a Corbusian, artistic naturally finished slanted concrete with spout windows facing the corners. The building is “center-cored,” meaning that all offices face all-round views and perimeters are 100% free of any obstruction from building services.

Staying true to the intention of creating an ambience that brings the context to the inside of the building, visitors will get to experience a breathtaking view of Damansara Perdana as they arrive at the lobby through a slowly escalating step way above the drop off. Despite its small size, the planting of about 500 trees around the site give rise to the feeling of dense vegetation around the main arrival floor. This deck allows visitors to take in the view by providing randomly placed precast concrete benches that encourages respite while wooden lanterns with marine plywood ceilings buttoned tightly against a raw concrete under croft create a soothing canopy. The reception desk with a random recessed and undulating rebated wall greets the visitor and reminds them of the graphics and geometry of the building's facade walls.

The distinctive form and elegant facade has made the building a well-known landmark in the area, fondly referred to as “The Fendi Bag.”
