The design loosely groups lecture rooms and two inner courts in an almost square box, with the smaller office spaces along the sides. The remaining space functions as a passage, a stair, a hall and a coffee-room behind glazed partitions. This cloister-like composition yields a variety of spaces, some surprisingly majestic, others typical leftover spaces. The all-brick building has a cladding of shell-limestone panels.
