The facade of the Oliwa 501 facing Aleja Grunwaldzka has sloping roofs and classic rhythms typical of big-city tenement houses. Fragments of the facade deep inside Poczta Gdańska and Majkowskiego Streets refer to the divisions of wooden bay windows and porches typical of the intimate historical buildings present here. In order to reduce the scale of the building and fit the development into the plot rhythm consistent with the historical division, the structure was enriched with recesses, gaps and decorative "verandas" referring to the wooden elements of the neighboring villa buildings. Continuation of the line of roofs and cornices of the frontage of al. Grunwaldzka was achieved by hiding the top floor of the building behind a high ceramic roof.
