divided into three zones – a plinth, the central wall and a frieze with the cornice, whereas the vertical division of the building was achieved with the use of pilasters and Dorian semi-columns. The architectural plastic elements follow the construction system, and with their ornamentation, they emphasize the part of the building facing the crossroad. The main façade, facing Uzun Mirkova Street has strong contrasts of light-dark, realized by the vertical division of the front facade with pilasters and a sequence of columns that imitate Dorian style, marking the ceremonial room of the house. The facade facing Tadeuša Košćuška Street is decorated with similar ornamented elements, but considering the purpose of the rooms on this side of the building, it did not get the Dorian columns. The south-east facade with the main entrance was decorated in a similar way, whereas the opposite facade from the longer side does not have plastic elements. The proportions of all decorative elements are subjected to the strict geometrical pattern, which gives a tone of seriousness to the building.

The original condition of the building underwent certain changes over time. In the early 20th century, due to the shortage of school buildings, the new two-storey building was built next to the old one. The new building is organically connected to the old one, but the architecture follows the requirements of the time and the facades bear elements of the Art Nouveau style. The modifications were also done on the facades – at the north-east facade by the change of the openings, and on the south-east by the walling up the squares between two pilasters. Changing the purpose of the building caused certain changes in the interior, first of all in the arrangement and the size of the rooms. The conservatory works on the building were done in 1964–1965, 1972–1975 and 1992–1994. The sanitation of mould and the restoration of the facades were done in 2004.
