Unique building of Slovak Radio consists of a construction in shape of upside-down pyramid, dwelling on a compact and differentiated pendant mass in which the record studios and concert halls are located. Production and broadcasting studios are hanging on the steel concrete core of the building and are surrounded by offices, which provide additional sound isolation for disturbances from outside. 6 floors of editors offices are placed along the perimeter of pyramidal steel construction. This construction is made of massive steel beams with network of diagonal trusses. Building core is 4 floors higher than the pyramid and is capped by the broadcasting emitter tube.
