The building, commonly known as the Faculty of Chemistry, comprises of low and high forms, enclosing an internal courtyard accessible also directly from the Szlak Street. The dynamics of the high building is increased by the lesenes on the entire height of the elevation and the cantilever above the recessed ground floor. The window bands are articulated horizontally, with square windows and wooden panels in the high building; equally characteristic is the stone cladding and corrugated metal cladding. Late Modernism of the 1960s , visible here, is a forerunner of the aesthetics of the 1970s. There are exposed, broad stairs with the terrace – with a planter crowning the full balustrade – before the main entrance.
