The two vertical modules are either of die-cast aluminium, or expanded metal sheet.
The floor is composed of laminated MDF, solid wood, or perforated steel. The walls are made of metal grid, laser cut steel, or soundproof textile panels.

In the expanded metal version, a lamp can be integrated, the light diffused through the grid.
