Dua pintu masuk sempit menuntun pengunjung ke bagian dalam, tempat kedua jalur menyatu menjadi satu ruang yang lebih luas. Sebuah proyektor di bagian tengah memancarkan grafis bergerak ke atas lantai. Rangka pipa baja yang dibengkokkan secara manual dicat putih dan dibalut dengan bilah bambu tenun berlebar satu sentimeter.
