On a 12.2 acres hill-top site in Taman Wawasan stands Wisma Putra. The building is designed to fit into the park environment of the Taman. The Wisma Putra Complex and the Institute for Diplomatic and International Relations symbolize the strength of a government institution based on a combination of traditional and modern architecture. Its strategic location upon a hill surrounded by Taman Wawasan makes it a landmark in tandem with nature. Traditional architectural features can be seen in the roof design which is an adaptation of the roof of old Malay homes.
Floral motifs adorn the grilles for windows, pillars as well as roof edges.
Islamic geometric designs have been introduced into the marble and granite floors. This plaza is scheduled for completion in mid 2002.
