The building has a piloti with a span of about 11 meters, a floating conference room made of vertical logs, and a view of the office through the courtyard. The building is located in a quasi-fireproof zone, but the ministerial approval of the quasi-fireproof performance of the vertical logs allowed the building to be made of exposed wood inside and out. In addition, cross logs, which are made of double horizontal and vertical logs, are used.
