Its original industrial charm was ingeniously incorporated into a modern overall design. The stairway made of glass and exposed concrete on the east side of the museum is an eyecatching feature that adds a futuristic component to the brick building.

Modern façade technology made this special effect possible while providing security to the new entrance area.
