The Saman Satellite Office building project began with well-defined potential, but responsibility for the design shifted from the original architect to a new team. Unlike standard practices that often cause a project to drift from its initial vision, the new architects set a mission to fulfill client requirements while respecting the original design. By "humbly going beneath the landscape" and fostering a culture of architectural cooperation, the team aimed to develop a hybrid, dynamic result that offers a more responsive solution without one design element overshadowing the other. To maintain emphasis on the building's net form, the project utilizes a neutral material—washed cement—which has been extended from the exterior into the interior.
