New Japanese Style = Roof that is Continuous Like a Strap - The site is in the eastern hills away from the center of Mito City. It was developed by clearing a wooded area and filling in a valley. As a result of the search to avoid different types of foundation structures and to use direct foundations, a strap-like shape emerged, which defined the building's layout and external form. The purpose of this facility was to provide a place for relaxation and recreation to ease the psychological burden on residents caused by the nearby waste incineration plant and the crematorium to be built in the future. The main functions of the facility are a sports practice area, including a gym room and a multipurpose room, an indoor swimming pool, and a public bathhouse. These functions are allocated within an outline defined by the land conditions.
