这是一个京町屋的改造项目，京町屋是传统的京都房屋，建于80多年前。
This is a remodelling project of a Kyomachi-ya, a traditional Kyoto house, constructed over 80 years ago.
起初，由于在过去的80年里进行了整修，它是一座被涂抹过多次的京町屋。首先，为了让它恢复原貌，油漆被刮掉了。然后，为了能够提供居住的最低需求，一个白色的盒子被放置在建筑中。新放置的白盒子和京町屋的历史元素共存，作为背景，强调了新旧的对比，并让建筑的记忆在时间的流逝中被包围。
At first, it was a Kyomachi-ya that has been painted multiple times due to refurbishments in the last 80 years. Firtstly, for returning it to the original form, the paints were scraped off. Then, to be able to provide the minimal needs for living in a house, a white box has been placed in the building. The coexistence of the newly placed white box and the historical elements of the Kyomachi-ya, as a background, emphasizes the contrast of the old and the new, and lets the memories of the building possessed with in the flow of time surrounds the space.
京町屋建筑的美在建筑中表现为支撑了80多年的柱子，以及在京都严冬中保持室内温暖的墙壁，超越了雨水和风的屋顶。
The beauty of the Kyomachi-ya architecture has represented in the building by the pillar which supported the building for more than 80 years, as well as the roof which has surpassed the rain and the wind with the walls that kept inside warm during the severe winter of Kyoto.
在场地的北侧，有一个公园。为了能够将公园的环境捕捉到室内空间，白色的盒子被放置在场地的南部。
On the North side of the site a park has been located. To be able to capture the environment of the park to the interior space, the white box has placed on the South area of the site.
在建筑的北面，有一个面向公园的大开口，将阳光引入一楼的深处，这在以前是不可能的，因为二楼的面积减少了。
On the Northern facade of the building, a large opening placed towards the park for bringing the sunlight to the deeper part of the first floor which had never bright before with the reducing the area of the second floor.
京町屋承载着过去80年的美丽和历史，而现代元素，在公园里的树木漏出的阳光的照耀下，给京町屋带来了新的现代意义。
The Kyomachi-ya holds the beauty and the history of the past 80 years, and contemporary elements, which illuminated by the sunshine leaks from the trees from the park, brings the new, contemporary meaning to the Kyomachi-ya.
