  "shape_and_silhouette": "Two large cylindrical glacial-blue tanks, each on a squat stepped basalt plinth and capped with a shallow pressure-aluminum dome, flank a low hall under a shallow signal-enamel-red barrel roof that runs front to back.",
  "visual_description": "The hall's flat front wall, between the tanks, carries one bold relief: a colossal forearm and gloved fist in aluminum raised against the dark basalt, gripping a big block of glacial-blue ice, cut in a few broad planes with a strong outline. It stays within the wall; nothing rises above the roof. One broad aluminum band rings each tank, a single thick blue pipe loops from each tank into the hall, and one large red valve wheel sits on the side of one tank. Beneath the relief, a pair of red doors in a deep aluminum frame is flanked by two heavy basalt buttresses.",
