The building is made of concrete and galvanized steel sheets, which reflect the dull light making it look massive. It is laid out to be accommodated within the L-shaped lot, and stands facing the shrine on the opposite side. The building is used as a studio and gallery of the photographer and his residence as well. The long thin passage serving as an alley to go around the gallery has other functions than a mere pathway; it is also used as a space to post artworks and photos on the wall.
