Description on this project

This museum is an open and flexible space, and at the same time, it incorporates a design based on the bamboo work traditionally inherited in Oita. On the first floor, there is a vast pillar space which opens to the front, and an exhibition space surrounded by timber grid walls is arranged on the third floor. In order to realize the large space on the first floor, a large span steel truss and hanging floors are placed. In the design of timber grid walls, earthquakeresistant brace is adopted by laminated wood as fire resistant covering of steel columns and planned to make the most of wooden materials.
