Then, We planned a hypothetical ceiling that flexibly correspond to a borrower by turning vinyl cable that is usually intertwined complicatedly into a grid form with backing materials for construction of suspended ceiling, such as threaded rods and ceiling joints. The function necessary for a office space is storage to the ceiling, and let the floor free to tolerate any office environment and the things that it belong to there.
