It stands in the center of the Ito Campus of Kyushu University. It is circular in shape with a diameter of 100m and consists of a hall and an administration building. It was designed as a place for students to gather together, including for entrance ceremonies and degree conferment ceremonies. Mr. Shiiki Masakazu, the founder of Sanyo Shinpan, sympathized with Kyushu University's philosophy of becoming a world-class educational and research center of the highest standard, and donated the building to the university on the occasion of its 100th anniversary in 2011.
