It was designed by architects Zdeněk Řihák and Zdeněk Sklepek, in the 1990s the building was rebuilt under the direction of Jan Melichar. The building is approximately in the shape of a block, in the front part extended to the original staircase and a newer commercial parterre. At the back, the block of the building is surrounded by a ring, which is formed by a staircase and offices above the shopping center. The lower part is lined with burgundy sheet metal parts, the original block with a dark brown tile, the rest consists of gray concrete lining or glass elements. The building was demolished in 2025.
