      The design concept was inspired by the principles
      of  Feng  Shui  philosophy  which  aims  at
      establishing  a  link  with  the  local  traditions  while
      projecting the future, using the latest technologies.
      Feng  Shui  literally  means  "Wind  and  Water",  in
      honour of the two elements  that shape the Earth
      and determine the healthy characters of a place.
