The Department is complete.

Texture, sharpness, clarity, simplicity – the front elevation borders on the sublime.

A striking bronze railing has been erected along the basement void, soaring to two storeys in height to form the entrance.

The basement railings continue the beautifully crafted pattern.

They conceal the basement void behind, paved in more crisp limestone.
