Ny Kongensgade 9 consists of three storeys over a walk-out basement. The facade is dressed in a pale sand colour over a black-painted plinth. The mansard roof is clad with black-glazed tiles towards the street and has a dentillated cornice. The three central bays are accentuated by a median risalit with four giant order Ionic pilasters on the upper floors. The pilasters are supported by a band with acanthus decorations, the latter of which were added in 1854. Between the pilasters runs a sill cornice below the windows on the second floor. The two outer bays are wider than the three central ones. Their windows are accentuated by window frames and sills in sandstone and the windows of the bel étage are additionally topped by a pediment.
