The building is located in a valley-like terrain formed by the erosion of hills, and overlooks the sea to the south. In order to cope with the strong sea breeze and sunlight, the exterior walls are made of RC frame covered with wooden walls. The wooden walls are made of quarter-sawn Japanese cedar lined with four different cross-sectional sizes, used horizontally and vertically.
