Taking the stations perforated metal logo, the "Signal" northwest side, is directed to the departmental road so as to be clearly visible to visitors arriving upstream. Northeast the front entrance side opens onto the square with oblique embrasures that shelter the entrance of the pavilion from wind and snow.  It evokes the  Whitney Museum window in New York built by Marcel Breuer. Finally, the " view " side , facing west , is cut by a large projected opening framing the landscape: the opening to the Flaine valley.
