The original site consisted of two lots built on a sloping hill, but the site has been restored to a gentle slope in line with the original topography, and the 22m long by 4m wide volume is enclosed by RC walls to incorporate the topography. The volume, 22m long by 4m wide, is enclosed by a RC wall. The wall is placed at an angle to the road in consideration of wind and light, and one side is open to the town. The exterior walls are finished with joints made by adjusting the formwork to create an expression.
