柯達總部位于洛杉磯中南部，該建筑利用洛杉磯一條私人道路上的具備空間權的場地作為其建筑場地。這條路目前仍按照其傳統方式通行，而新建筑是一個地上空間權結構，在美國，這是為數不多的幾個建立在汽車通行權之上的建筑之一。新建筑由一個鋼柱和橫梁系統支撐，位于道路上方15英尺的空中，以便有足夠的垂直空間讓卡車和汽車從下方通行。空間權大樓是一個簡單的長方形建筑，長110英尺，寬30英尺，高45英尺（洛杉磯地區的限高），由鋼管柱和跨越原有道路寬度的大梁支撐。新的柱子要么建在現有建筑物外的道路上，要么建在與道路相鄰的建筑物內部。通過改造道路兩旁的現有建筑物，來為原建筑物租戶——柯達公司，提供額外的底層辦公空間。

在另外的矩形構建塊中存在兩個幾何異常。一是建筑東南角的雙錐體，進出口樓梯，室外休息室和屋頂甲板空間，可從汽車進入場地的通道顯示建筑。第二是朝西的五邊形庭院，有露天橋、游泳池、噴泉和室外員工座椅，該庭院懸掛在汽車出口道路的正下方。

空中建筑的內部規劃包括開放式和封閉式辦公空間以及會議室。地面上是多媒體教室、休息室、開放式辦公室和生產空間。在矩形建筑的中心是浴室和公用設施核心，在其他規則的樓層到樓層高度結構內，這是兩個雙高度容積之一。

改建后的鋸齒形屋頂建筑位于“樓底”通道的盡頭，擁有柯達雜貨店和教室，以及通往新辦公建筑2樓和3樓的電梯大廳。在二樓電梯大廳外，是一個雙高會議空間，向西可以看到圣塔莫尼卡高速公路，威爾希爾大道和圣塔莫尼卡山脈，因此給人們提供了一種定位感，這種定位感通常是一個更復雜，更不容易理解的洛杉磯愿景。

The Kodak Headquarters Office Building in South Central Los Angeles utilizes the air rights space over a private road in Los Angeles as the building site.The road continues to operate as a conventional road, and the new building is an air rights structure above, one of the few such projects to be constructed over an automobile right-of-way in the United States.The new building is supported on a steel column and beam system, fifteen feet in the air above the road, to allow sufficient vertical clearance for trucks and automobiles to pass underneath.The air rights building is a simple, rectangular block, 110 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high (the height limit in that area of Los Angeles), supported by steel pipe columns, and girders that span the original road width.The new columns land either on the road outside existing structures, or within the adjacent buildings that adjoin the road.Existing buildings on either side of the road are remodeled to provide additional ground floor office space for Cineon Kodak, the original building tenant.

There are two geometric anomalies in the otherwise rectangular building block.First, the double cone, entry and exit stair, outdoor lounge and roof deck spaces on the southeast corner of the project, identifying the building from the access road from which cars enter the site.The second spatial exception to the block is the west-facing, pentagonal courtyard,with open-air bridge, pool, fountain, and outdoor employee seating, that cantilevers over the automobile egress road directly below.

The interior plan for the building in the air includes open and closed office space and conference rooms.On the ground are the multimedia classrooms, lounges, open offices and production space.In the center of the rectangular block building is the bathroom and utility core, one of two double height volumes within the otherwise regular floor to floor height structure.

The remodeled sawtooth roofed building at the end of the “under the building” access road holds Kodak’s commissary and classroom spaces, and the elevator lobby that leads to the 2nd and 3rd floors of the new office structure.Off the elevator lobby on the 2nd floor is a double height conference space that looks west to the Santa Monica Freeway, Wilshire Boulevard, and the Santa Monica Mountains, providing a sense of orientation to what is so often a more complex, less intelligible vision of Los Angeles.
