House in Shimogamo

Outline
Renovation of an approximately 40-year-old wooden house located along the Kamo River. A new structural reinforcement wall is built diagonally through the four floors from the hobby/work room in the basement to the loft on the top floor. The diagonal walls connect the airspace and create different light and dark spaces on the east and west sides of the house.
