The building is located in a considerably calmer area compared to other parts of a country in the midst of war, but security measures are nonetheless critical. Therefore, the building was surrounded by a high garden wall and separated from the outer world. In addition to the consulate offices and residences, it includes attaché offices and housing, all of which have separate entrances after being accessed through the single, gated entrance with security on the compound. Scattered around two separate courtyards, the buildings are distinguished by their function, but can be combined to create harmony as a whole.
