Abstract
From a viewpoint of software side, the snow is one of the mysterious materials for almost passengers visiting snowy country from hardly snowfall area. When they encounter with the snow, they may be felt the impulse to touch the snow, to realize coldness and to be charmed by the snow. There are many voices that they would like to have this mysterious experience even during midsummer. In order to respond to those needs, the authors planed to construct a small space enclosed by snow walls, and developed a technique that prevents snowy dissolution under hot condition with the aid of refrigerator. With this technology, a project that makes a small space enclosed with snow walls in midsummer was carried out with the member of the Sapporo Commerce-and-Industry Meeting in this summer, and we also have been enjoyed.
