Concept

This is a base facility for firefighting squad activities that have established a good tradition and continue to have a major role in the local community. While the building's function is a simple combination of a fire truck garage and a meeting room, the design is based on a heavy steel frame structural design with the hope that fire squad activities will continue to serve as the nucleus for new community building in the future. In addition, metal fittings such as eaves, lantern catchers, and banner catchers are added as accessory designs that foreshadow the future.
