The organizing principles of the design are:

• The site is structured into alternating slivers of water and green.
• Buildings are organized into clusters in the space along these slivers.
• The building clusters comprise a combination of streets and courts as per the use.

Each precinct has a distinct character and contains a mix of residential space with a combination of commercial, cultural, healthcare and technology-oriented business spaces. The campus is designed to be a vibrant community development with activity spread over 24 hours over the entire site.
