The idea behind the building is to be an incubator for businesses which are deemed to be socially or environmentally responsible, and as such it was part funded by government, including the EU.

The building itself is pleasant enough, although at the eastern end (at the right in the photo) the façade was left in bare concrete, and the finish is not very nice. 5th Studio did the master plan for the site (which includes the nearby SmartLIFE Low Carbon Centre). TP Bennett contributed to the design of the internal layout. Saunders Boston were the executive architects.
