The Dining Terrace provides a selection of Restaurant dining options and is sheltered by a three dimensional diamond ceiling in a dark bronze, reflective finish. This feature ceiling treatment ultimately became the backbone for the lighting design, as it provided a framework for which the lighting needed to work.

This strategy also allowed the functional illumination in the form of can downlights to be concealed from view within the un-illuminated diamond grid portions. A combination of other lighting techniques such as grazing walls to reveal texture, using custom light elements to define entries and perimeter illumination complete the design
