This PROJECT is a project in which we purchase used detached houses on the market, renovate them by our design office, and then resell them back to the world.
The assignment given to us was a two-story conventional wooden dwelling with four bedrooms.

The site was large, and there was some leeway in the building-to-land ratio and floor-area ratio. But the number of rooms is sufficient. Therefore, we did not see the point in adding more rooms than necessary to the site, which had plenty of space, and decided to add a two-story void space without a name, like a sunroom, which does not have a specific and clear function to be named dining space or living space, or can be used in various ways, dare I say it? We decided to add an addition to the south side of the house.

This void space will protect the privacy from the neighbor to the south (currently a parking lot and a wooden apartment) that will be planned eventually, control the heat of the sun according to the season, connect the separated first and second floors, and have the basic function of communication between the family members. It is not a single space called a sunroom, but a space without a name that is more diverse and rich.
