Pragmatically the Box has three parts. The first is an almost cylindrical reception area that cuts through the roof of the existing one-story wood shed. Parts of the original truss system were left exposed inside the cylinder. The second is an exterior stair that leads to an intermediate roof deck that is supported by the exposed truss system below. The zone between the square deck and round roof is glazed allowing natural light to shine into the reception space below. A doorway located on the exterior stair and in between the 2nd and 3rd floors allows access from the existing structure to the Box addition. This space functions as a private 3rd floor conference room with corner views west to Century City and east to downtown
