该项目是一座信息大厦，在海登（Hayden）大街与民族大道拐角处，刚好穿过新世博轻轨线，这条线路将于2011年6月从洛杉矶市中心修过来。那个路口是进入卡尔弗城新开发区的主入口。
从概念上讲，这座大楼同时具有内向和外向的设计目标。这片新兴地块上的建筑内部进驻了新媒体公司、平面设计师以及一般的写字楼租户，大楼将象征着这一重要的新城市发展的到来，为当地提供了一场不断变化的艺术品展览，并在5面高清背投大屏幕上提供了各种图像和数据，内容主要关于租户的未来活动和目前成就。
大楼对外展示了重要的文化内容和当地的活动信息，还有各种艺术与设计展示，当人们乘车游走于卡尔弗城/西洛杉矶地区的大街小巷，经过此处的时候就能欣赏到这些画面。
除了大量经过此地的汽车之外，项目东西两侧距离几个街区各有两个世博轻轨车站，预计每天可运送30000人次。火车乘客人数众多，确保每天都有大量观众路过这座大楼，欣赏艺术展览，该地区的行人也会增加，他们将会从车站穿过大楼前往当地的商业区。

The project is an information tower, constructed at the corner of Hayden Avenue and National Boulevard immediately across from the new Expo light rail transit line arriving from downtown Los Angeles in June, 2011. That intersection is the primary entry point into the re-developed zone of Culver City.
Conceptually, the tower has both introverted and extroverted planning objectives. Internal to the burgeoning site area of new media companies, graphic designers, and general office tenants, the tower will symbolize the advent of this important new urban development, provide a changing art display for local viewing, and offer a variety of graphic content and data on its five high- resolution rear projection screens concerning coming events and current achievements of the tenants who occupy that part of the city.
Externally, the tower displays culturally significant content and local event information, along with art and graphic presentations of all sorts available to in-car audiences who pass the site area, traveling on a number of local thoroughfares in the Culver City / West Los Angeles area.
In addition to the large number of cars passing the site, the Expo Line has an estimated ridership of 30,000 passengers per day with two local stations several blocks east and west of the project site. The presence of the train riders guarantees an enormous daily audience of Tower art viewers, as well as an increase in pedestrians in the area, who will walk past the Tower from the train stops to local businesses.
