The museum rests on pilotis 3.4 m high. The structural grid is 7x7 m. One enters from underneath the building where there is an open court with a large pool and a ramp that leads to the exhibition spaces. The building is designed to protect against the hot climate. On the roof there are several large basins originally intended as planters. The building's exterior is of plain brick with exposed elements of raw concrete structure.
