While the old building was carefully demolished, great care was taken to preserve its historical essence. Noteworthy elements such as the original terracotta facade, captivating gargoyles, wooden doors, and authentic steel and wood railings were safeguarded. These cherished remnants from the past are prominently displayed both inside and outside the new building, accompanied by detailed narratives that delve into the rich history of the structure. This approach ensures that the building’s heritage remains a prominent and cherished aspect of the modern design.
