This first admittance facility was built in a very short time using high-quality construction materials in a high-density structure. This 3-story building was planned in 3 weeks, constructed in 4 months. The building (33 m long, 15 m wide, 9 m high) was built using prefabricated wooden panel elements (3 x 6 m grid modules). Domestic wood was used for the interiors and exteriors. Ideally, the building will be used subsequently as a hostel or office.
