Finished Exterior Appearance
Slits between the Panels |

Concept:
This theatre, a centre of entertainment, has brought back the excitement
of cinema and raconteur performances to Jinbo-Cho just like in the old days.
Style:
Exterior Corten Steel Panel
(thickness - 4.5mm)
Features:
The exterior Corten Steel
panel functions as the wall's finishing material as well as providing earthquake-resistance and thermal insulation. Soiling can be easily cleaned off.
The slit between the panels acts as a rain gutter for water drainage. This unification of design, structure
and detail, resolves problems common for architects such as dirt removal and rainwater.
