This building, featuring impressive louvered panels resembling a cedar grove, is made entirely from timber sourced from Kyoto Prefecture!
We would like to introduce our pure wooden four-story building, the "Kyoto Wood Industry Hall." This four-story building is constructed entirely from timber sourced from Kyoto Prefecture. The louvers, made from solid cedar boards joined together, deliver soft light reminiscent of dappled sunlight indoors, aiming to create a hall where visitors can find their favorite types of wood. COOL WOOD is easy to process and can be manufactured using various types of wood to suit design and cost requirements. The appearance of the columns and beams is wooden, allowing for a building that utilizes the warmth of wood. 【Features】 ■ A building with impressive louvers resembling cedar groves ■ 100% use of timber sourced from Kyoto Prefecture for structural materials ■ A design that incorporates various uses of wood in both interior and exterior finishes ■ A spatial structure that offers a comfortable atmosphere that invites people to visit *For more details, please refer to the PDF or feel free to contact us.
