The complex is one of the landmark buildings along the Persiaran Perdana. To the west will be the Grand Mosque and to the east across the Persiaran Perdana, the Palace of Justice.
Designed as a complex of interconnected spaces that will reflect a distinct presence in Presint 3, the building is a contemporary interpretation of traditional Islamic architecture. The main feature is the Gateway or Gerbang with a public viewing deck on the top most level that allows for a breathtaking view of the city skyline that includes the Palace of Justice and the Grand Mosque. The gateway will also provide a vantage point during parades.
The main building comprises four simple volumes integrated within courtyards while along the Persiaran Perdana, the arcade will open up to incorporate a landscaped Qiblat Walk. In the Gallery flanking the Qiblat Walk, meeting rooms are suspended to give an impressive façade. A continuous suspended garden will crown the top of the gallery to provide natural views from the Dataran through to the waterfront to the west of the building.
The conference facilities and Auditorium are designed as a complex of low-rise medium sized buildings connected by pedestrian links with boutique retail spaces on the ground floor of each component. The façade on the Persiaran Perdana is a network of arcades with elegant intricate mesh screens of geometrical patterns providing protection from the sun.
