It has a ground floor and four storeysfloors overlooked by a well-proportioned seven-storey tower whose asymmetrically shaped volume is accentuated by the central dominant. The symmetrical arrangement of the front facade is emphasized by athe lateralfront projectionsside-wings encompassing the ground floor and the first two floors. Its side facade is characterized by the rhythm of the openings and the carefully and unobtrusively placed voluminous statue of Icarus, the work of the sculptor [[Zlata Markov]] (Žitište 1908 – [[Novi Sad]] 1986), whose mythological symbolism is associated with the meaning and the purpose of the building.
