Arizona-based Arc Tec is responsible for the design. The firm describes the architectural aesthetic as a contemporary use of curtain walls and solid panels. Specifically, it’s described, “the current design incorporates multi-story, framed bays; upper floor step-backs; variety in materials and colors; and layered recesses for the provision of open spaces.
