This building is constructed based on the idea of amazing modern concept. This looks like a ship in the jungle or like a cut paper. Like a paper cut, the 3XN project cuts and folds the square to let the surface of the square and the roof of the building merge. In this way, the different stages, the gallery and the café of the inside, are opened up to a free flow between the interior and the exterior of the building. This building has good view from the inside and outside of the building. The windows let the solar and fresh air enter the room. Horizontal strips of glass create wide openings for the daylight, providing a splendid view from within as well as openness to the exterior. It will be comfortable end enjoyable in the building to see the view and breathe fresh air. All the building has artistic and modern values. Coherence is established by use of the same, local stone on both walls and floor, and a broad staircase that provides the jazz festival with a big open-air stage. The wall has good color and it is completed with nice interiors. The project contains a library and an arts centre including a gallery facing the upper square. Situated in the eastern wing, the library has a strong exposure to the square. The library is very wide and has complete collection from old things till new edition.
