The corner of the facade is the focal point of the exterior and showcases sections of wood blocks at differing angles.

The wood screen is made from small rectangular blocks that are threaded onto rods, allowing them to be positioned at regular intervals.

The wood screens, which can be seen from within a bedroom, provide a level of privacy and security even when the sliding door is opened.
