The full building shot is nice since everyone seems to concentrate on the details. It's almost Gaudi-like in structure and decoration and looks like there's some kind of roof garden up there as well.

These <a href="http://en.structurae.de/photos/index.cfm?JS=44087" rel="nofollow">motifs</a> on either side of the window particularly caught my eye - they look like a cross between a G-clef and a fern unfolding. *wanders off to see if any drawings are online* Stunning thanks John. Here’s a full building shot. These motifs on either side of the window particularly caught my eye – they look like a cross between a G-clef and a fern unfolding.
