In additional, a lowest construction cost is also a client’s concern due to short term rental of this site from 5 to 10 years only.

Under those circumstances, the idea using cheap local materials, easy to construct in a short-time and re-used ability was raised as a key design direction.

The curved stone-walls made by many piled-up-steel-cages contained rocks inside to reduce horizontal force seem to be a suitable solution for this project.
