The volume is a long and narrow rectangle because of the view and topography, and the wooden structure is exposed without walls. The wooden frame is made of 120 x 180 mm Yoshino cedar, and the posts, beams and canes are assembled so that they interlock with each other. Two roof beams, two braces, two floor beams on the second floor, two columns each, and one cane each form a single frame of nine successive sections.
