The construction of the LVL functions structurally, and the steel frame which derived from an existing steel frame supports its structure.

Though the outside is flat, the polyhedron formed in shampoo space gets complicated polyhedral composition at the inside. And, people get the spatial experience which passes through a huge woody slit of height 5m.
