Ovals are not a big step from other hollow sections. That's the point

Article Abstract:

The new Swords office development is being built at the established Airside Business Park, close to Dublin International Airport, a speculative office and the first of a proposed new phase of four buildings. The design of the approach to the building draws attention to the freestanding columns that support both canopy and the external shading of the layered facade and the architect RKD Architects is made aware of the availability of oval hollow sections (OHSs) by engineer Thomas Garland & Partners.
