The building is a noteworthy example of late Neoclassicism. Its principal decorative scheme is developed on the ground floor and the first floor. The second floor is conceived as an ‘attic’, with reduced height and simpler morphological elements. Unique in Heraklion is the timber belvedere on the roof, covered by a scaphoid vault.

On the façade, the central vertical axis is emphasised, with the main entrance set back in a recess. Pseudo-pilasters and small columns set on tall pedestals, crowned with capitals, articulate the individual sections of the façade. Distinctive features of the decoration also include the pediment of the central bay on the first floor, the composite cornices, and the small balusters beneath the window sills.
