这家专门销售凤梨酥（在台湾很受欢迎的甜食）的商店，是一个竹篮子的形状。它建立在一个被称为 “Jiigoku-Gumi “的连接系统上，这是日本木制建筑中使用的传统方法（经常在Shoji中观察到：相同宽度的垂直和交叉件相互缠绕，形成一个muntin网格）。
This shop, specialized in selling pineapple cake (popular sweet in Taiwan), is in the shape of a bamboo basket. It is built on a joint system called “Jiigoku-Gumi,” traditional method used in Japanese wooden architecture (often observed in Shoji: vertical and cross pieces in the same width are entwined in each other to form a muntin grid).
通常情况下，两块木片在两个维度上相交，但在这里，它们在3个维度（或立方体）上以30度结合，这就形成了一个像云一样的结构。有了这个想法，每块木头的截面尺寸被缩小到60毫米×60毫米。
Normally the two pieces intersect in two dimensions, but here they are combined in 30 degrees in 3 dimensions (or in cubic), which came into a structure like a cloud. With this idea, the section size of each wood piece was reduced to as thin as 60mm×60mm.
由于该建筑位于青山住宅区的中间，我们希望给它一些柔和和微妙的气氛，这与混凝土盒子完全不同。我们希望街道和建筑能够产生良好的化学反应。
As the building is located in middle of the residential area in Aoyama, we wanted to give some soft and subtle atmosphere to it, which is completely different from a concrete box. We expect that the street and the architecturecould be in good chemistry.
