Escalators located on the right-hand side of the underground plaza lead from the ticket gates of the subway to an entrance hall where abundant natural light is let in to create a sense of openness. The grounds outside the 1st floor entrance form an open space where the public can come and go freely.

Air conditioning can be divided into 33 zones
- Desiccant air conditioning system
- The building uses the latest air conditioning system with individual temperature and humidity control. This results in more comfortable air conditioning in offices while reducing power consumption.
- Energy-saving with natural ventilation
- Natural ventilation can be used to circulate air from outside when desired. This can be used to reduce energy consumption by equipment such as air conditioners during the cold season and provide ventilation during a power outage.
