And in this transparency of this very beautiful building, that there will still be the heart and soul of <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Hawai&#699;i<\/span> expressed in it,&rdquo; said Momi Cazimero, Daniel K. Inouye workshop participant.<\/p>\n<p>Architects laid out the preliminary conceptual design at a formal presentation and explained a few unique features of the building, such as the rooftop wind scoop.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The idea is to capture those beautiful M&#257;noa winds that come through the campus and naturally ventilate our great innovation zone.
