The building is build totally of stone in the Venetian style and Architecture, stones from the north village Sinies and granite, the bricks of course which have been used for the supporting arches of the static weights are of the old and solid ones commonly used in Corfu in the past. The mixture used to keep the bricks together contains porcelain detritus in a large percentage, details which enable this building to have no expire date (metal is nowhere to be found as a substance), as the exact same building materials were used by the Venetians to construct both fortresses in Corfu (the Old and the New). Furthermore, the lower parts of the windows have been constructed with stone and not with bricks as was common then to make things easier. It is possible to install a lift, due to its architecture and the existing walls, and the fact that the width of the stair case is 2 meters, a very rear characteristic for a building of its age where the width normally comes up to 1meter.
