The building, which is of unconventional yet distinctive appearance, is arranged on the ground floor only and is constructed of timber frame with pitched slate roofs and timber framed windows.

The building uses an efficient energy strategy by use of solar collectors and natural ventilation and lighting. Part of the roof system is green roofing made with sedum matting which provides good thermal insulation and high rainwater retention.
