A single-story, steel-framed funeral home with four ceremonial halls in Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture. In order to keep costs low, 0.3-mm-thick small- and medium-wave galvalume steel sheets are used for both the exterior and interior finishes. They are used horizontally. The roof tiles of a former elementary school on the site are reused in the courtyard.
