The most interesting aspect of this building is the corbelling and the angular brick formation of the facade. The walls have a stretcher bond with iron joints and are made up of two types of bricks: a light brown one with a rough texture and a dark red one with a flat surface texture used to form a pattern on the side of the building.
This building has two different types of bonds: a stretcher bond is use in the facade while an English bond is present in the back of the building. The walls are structural and use a flush mortar joint. Two different types of bricks are also used: a dark red brick for the walls and a blue brick for the semi-circular arches used for window openings and entrances. Colour as an aesthetic is strong in the appearance of the building, enhanced by the yellowish orange of the concrete blocks and window frames acting in colour coordination contrasting with the blue bricks.
