There are not just "service buildings", but structures that create a sense of identity. The strong lines of the compact cubic structures are enhanced by flush windows and anthracite-coloured cladding made of copper-titanium-zinc alloy. The very dark colour of the velvety metal sheets gives solid presence to the building, and slight surface irregularities add an element of liveliness. An important contrasting design feature is the large floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor. The clear run of glass up to the top line of the building creates a cut-out effect. The inset roll-up doors on the ground floor provide visual tension, as they are the only planes that are not flush with the exterior building wall.
