Hercules Cafeteria in Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Think of Hattiesburg and the name Hercules will soon be mentioned. My aunt lived in Hattiesburg right near the plant and I can remember its sprawling grounds from my earliest childhood on our visits to that city. But what caught my eye the other day when I was exploring the town on an early Saturday morning was the now-unused cafeteria of the plant, located on a street right across from the Hercules factory. Could anyone please tell me what architectural style this building is? It almost looks like something Frank Lloyd Wright would design. Maybe modern? I don't believe it is Art Deco, but I could be wrong. It is a beautiful building that I hate is in such a state of disrepair.
