该网站位于一个商业区，有许多商店。该网站的密切与城镇的活动-也是繁忙的交通和狭窄的人行道-启发建筑师表达这种接近的建筑，通过合并的外部和内部。

The site is located in a commercial district with many stores. The site's closeness to the town's activities – also the heavy traffic and narrow sidewalk – inspired the architect to express this proximity in the building by merging the exterior and interior.

这座建筑距离地产线约2米，木质装饰的周边空间充满了色彩鲜艳的9米高的木棒。这29根外部木棍，反射在透明的玻璃外墙上，自然地与19根室内棍子混合在一起，随意放置在建筑物内。这彩虹淋浴返回色彩和一些好玩的空间回到城镇。

The building is offset approximately 2 meters from the property line, and the timber-decked peripheral space is filled with colorful 9 meter-tall sticks. These 29 exterior sticks, reflected on the transparent glazed façade, mix naturally with the 19 interior sticks placed randomly inside the building. This rainbow shower returns colors and some room for playfulness back to the town.

进入大楼后，游客们会注意到，他们还在通往银行内部的一个外部庭院里。在这里，内部和外部也是集成的。走在玻璃庭院里，有一个咖啡厅般的开阔空间，充满了自然的光。院子里的竹子与五颜六色的枝条齐头并进。

Entering the building, the visitors would notice that they are still in an exterior courtyard leading to the bank's interior. Here also, the inside and outside are integrated. Walking around the glazed courtyard inside, there is a cafe-like open space filled with natural light. The bamboos in the courtyard extend skyward in concert with the colorful sticks.

外部甲板空间、内部开放空间、外部庭院和内部出纳员柜台构成四层空间。这些层反映在玻璃上，再加上复杂的阴影，它们在空间中创造了深度。

The exterior deck space, interior open space, exterior courtyard, and the interior teller counters compose four layers of spaces. The layers are reflected on the glazing, and, combined with complex shadows, they create depth in the space.
