About Hoshino Jinja Sanktuar

Është një qasje inovative që kombinon teknologji të vjetra dhe të reja, të tilla si metoda tradicionale japoneze e ndërtimit që nuk përdor asnjë pajisje metalike, ndërtimi Ishiba dhe llogaritja e rezistencës kufitare bazuar në analizën strukturore moderne. Dizajni, i përbërë nga vija horizontale dhe vertikale, është shumë estetik dhe është përshkruar si bukuri strukturore tërheqëse e bazuar në sensin unik japonez të bukurisë.
