The building is a three-story, seven-unit residential complex with a horseshoe-shaped residential building surrounding a 2-meter-wide passageway from the busy street in front. Reinforced concrete masonry. The boundary with the outside is a lattice door that allows a glimpse of life inside, smoothly connecting the building to the city. The passages are greened as alleys, and the openings of the units facing each other are staggered to create a moderate sense of neighborhood.
