The buildings form a two-storey row on the southern side of the Naulakalliontie street. There are altogether 25 flats, half for students and half for young people at work. Divided into two residential quarters, the buildings nevertheless form a coherent whole. The otherwise quite simple exteriors have been accentuated with practical and useful elements, long overhangs and combinations of stairs and balconies.
