Steel was selected for reinforcement and extensions to the building. The ventilation system is prominently displayed. A geometric pattern of colored panes are attached to the front. The building accommodates the fixed in-place machines of the production facility and the flexible open space of the administrative offices, and provides a shared entrance and canteen.
