The donor understood the value of this architecturally significant building, designed by Mario Ciampi, which was too expensive and difficult for the university to renovate. Its use as a private company incubator, however, despite its programs for student engagement, might best be described as mission-adjacent and its dramatic interior spaces and lovely garden are no longer accessible to the public.

Unregulated direct sunlight can cause discomfort such as visual strain and undesirable heat gains. Therefore, it is crucial to control its entry effectively. Some design solutions include installing shading devices, planning spatial orientation, and building forms for indirect natural light.
