With a relief-type texture and large windows that had to be carefully considered when building the walls, the construction of the façade presented the contractor with a special challenge

The façade was built with formwork in SB2 quality and subsequently sandblasted so that the modern structure would blend in with its historical surroundings, especially the tuff stone of the Hercules Monument

Prefabricated Westaspan 450 boards, in the PERI Trio panel formwork system, were used for forming the surfaces
