The building hugs the hill, with a large window wall to the northwest.  The interior space with 6 meters height is lit by this window together with the low slit along the floor to the east.
The exterior is partly clad with large dimensions of Siberian larch wood.

Initial sketches for conversion to a dwelling reveal the flexibility of such a structure.
