The information in the ARKive is chronologically organized - as time and space shrink - the amount of information increases. This is the inverse relationship which underscores the theme of the building. Building mass and structure are concentrated and dense at the base and lighten at the top to reduce weight and leave more room for spaces. The levels get increasingly complex and labyrinthian as the amount of rooms and interconnected spaces increase. 
The pattern in plan in section is the same as in plan - larger spaces- more interconnectivity. and porosity of space.
