The structural system adopted is mixed, consisting mainly of pillars, beams and slabs in concrete, besides the use of metal beams, promoting a balance between one material and another. In this context the upper floor is projected as a large rectangular volume of pure and simple form, marked by wooden brises that regulate the entrance of the sunlight. The building appears to be suspended under the glass box of the ground floor in an elegant way through the harmony and proportions of the shapes.
