Entrance Cube BackNext
The entrance cube, measuring approximately 45 meters long by 15 meters wide and with a ceiling height of 6 meters, projects out from the building, and you enter the building through this cube. As you go down the stairs, you see the reading rooms and the Auditorium. At the back of the cube is the elevator.

On the walls is tapestry glass similar to the outer walls on the front of the building. Special glass (LOW-E glass), which lets in only about 40% of the sunlight, is used on the inside layer of the double-glazing.
