Jute was chosen for its unique smell and texture that relates sensory experience with nature.

The available form in ropes and cords also correspond with the fun and adventurous theme that the space intends to create. In addition, the material provides sense of privacy through its color and control of density whilst not sacrificing all spacial openess.
