Production Technology
The masonry structure employed in this building has the aptitude to resist earthquakes and typhoons without damaging the earth.

It is truly an epoch-making building that makes full use of traditional Japanese construction methods and new technologies.

Project Duration
The project started in August 2019 in Toyokawa City, Aichi, Japan and finished in December 2021
Location 102 Kamikaizu, Hirao-chou, Toyokawa City, Aichi, Japan, Aichi,
Operation Flow
