The ground plan of the new building has an S-shaped figure that combines with two rows of trees to frame clear open spaces. With a height of around 50 metres, the building towers over the area around it, creating a striking effect in the flat landscape.

The new building has a structure consisting of the eastern bunker facility with a height of around 46 metres, the adjoining base section and, rotated away from it, the administrative wing, each made of in-situ cast concrete and with heights of 17 metres. The hall of the incineration line, which is a steel construction, is supported by the base section that projects slightly over the bunker facility and appears to hover over a joining band of windows.

The in-situ cast concrete walls are cast with a large-scale steel formwork and coloured with fly ash. The steel structure of the hall placed on the base is insulated with sheet-metal sandwich elements and clad in deeply profiled, chromed steel sheeting that reflects the mood of the weather and the colour of the sky.
