The main structure is composed of an aluminum ring and a frame of an aluminum column and beam. The ring is made from four aluminum molds interlocked into a ring shape. The dies (molds) from which the aluminum ring were created, were developed by Atelier Tekuto, Jun Sato structure design office, Shin Nikkei Co. Ltd. and Miyashita Lab. of Kanazawa Institute of Technology. The aluminum ring fully integrated the radiant cooling/heating and lighting systems by imbedding them within its structure.
