The building is highly visible from JR Takayama Station, with colors that harmonize with the mountains in the background and a neat form, and the volume has been divided to reduce the sense of intimidation. In addition, the interior and exterior spaces were designed with modern materials and design, using as motifs the continuous horizontal lines of noki eaves and hisashi eaves, and vertical elements such as columns, fittings, and protruding gabled roofs seen in the three traditional building preservation areas in the city.
