这座私人住宅最初建于1991年，位于神奈川县历史名城镰仓大町。建筑坐落在自然环绕的山坡上，往每个方向看去都享有美丽的景观视野。在进行此次现代化改造之前，住宅的厨房、起居室和日式房间都被隔离在独立的封闭区域内。这种碎片化的空间规划方式破环了空间的流动感，降低了面积的利用率，同时在室内形成了复杂的交通循环。
This private house was originally built back in 1991 and is situated in ōmachi, a locality in the historical city of Kamakura in the Kanagawa Prefecture. The building is placed on a hillside surrounded by nature, resulting in beautiful landscapes in every direction faced at. Before the modernisation, the kitchen, living and Japanese-style rooms were all separated in their own enclosed area. This fragmentation spoiled the efficiency of the surface and created a complicated circulation inside.

因此，改造工作从拆除一楼起居室和榻榻米房间之间的隔墙开始。这种干预策略创造出宽敞的厨房和客厅，使住宅从南到北形成通透流畅的开放空间。此外，设计师还在底层平面的南端，即厨房中央的位置，增设了一座厨房中岛，并将原厨房根据屋主人的爱好改造为糕点烘焙室。岛台前侧，曲面石膏板围合出一处圆润的角落，进一步改善了室内空间的流动性。
Hence, the renovation started by removing the dividing wall between the living and tatami rooms on the first floor. This shaped a spacious kitchen and living room that covers the whole north-south direction of the plan. For the former one, an island has been installed near to the south-end of the plan, converting the previous kitchen into a hobby confectionery. Smoothing with a rounded plaster board the corner in front of the counter improved the flow inside.

全新的厨房岛台表面覆盖着日本现代设计中典型的10x10cm白色瓷砖，这种材质肌理为翻新后的空间带来了一丝怀旧的氛围。岛台的尺度使其成为住宅中的次要用餐场所，并很快就成为了家庭生活的中心。全新的空间布局将住宅西侧立面解放了出来，大面积的开窗为室内引入了充足的自然光线。原先设有两扇窗的厨房南端立面则被改造为封闭的墙面，被厨房置物架提供了更加适宜的空间条件。
The new counter is covered with the typical 10x10cm white tile from the Japanese modern era, giving a touch of nostalgia amid the refurbished space. The island is dimensioned to provide a secondary dining spot for the owners and it soon became the centre for the family’s life. Thanks to the new layout, the wide openings along the western wall provide plenty of natural light inside the plan. This allowed the two windows in the south end to be walled, in favour of a kitchen shelf.

考虑到住宅可观的室内面积与有限的预算，改造设计优先考虑了那些最需要更新的空间，试图将新旧和谐地融合在一起。为了实现这一点，住宅的历史痕迹必须在设计中得到凸显，因此，设计师将客厅的天花板拆除，并将其原始的木结构暴露在空间中。地板则采用了大尺寸的瓷砖，以匹配木材的纹理和色调，这些瓷砖表面光滑，如同水面一般将光线漫射到空间中，与周围环境产生协同作用，营造出舒适柔和的空间氛围。
Given the generous size of the house and the disproportionate budget available, the renovation prioritised those spaces needing the most, trying to blend old and new harmonically. To achieve this, the age of the dwelling has to be visible, so the ceiling in the living room has been removed in favour of the exposed wooden structure. Large-sized tiles were chosen for the pavement to match the texture and tone of the timber: those have a peculiar reflective surface similar to water, working in synergy with the surrounding.

在整个改造过程中，底层的原日式房间可谓变化最大：除了采用与生活空间的其他部分相和谐的材料外，设计师还将原储藏室纳入到该空间中，进而扩展了生活区的面积。原储藏室中书架则被转移到了室内阳光房（内縁 Uchien） 中。如今的阳光房设有日式传统的“雪见障子”屏风，屏风关闭后则变身为一处独立的创意场所。
The renovation brought the biggest changes to the previous first floor Japanese-style room: beside its materiality which has been homogenised to the rest of the living, the storage became part of the space, widening the ambience by a lot. The sun room (内縁 Uchien) in the inner engawa gained a bookshelf from the former storage. Now it’s used as a creative place of the house when closed behind the original Yukimi Shoji (雪見障子, lit. translated as “snow-watching shoji”).

上部楼层的改造则采用了不同的方法，由于上层空间保存完好，且改造预算有限，因此，设计师仅为这里进行了最轻微的干预。卫生间内的木制铺地让人不禁联想到现有的走廊和其他卧室。西南角的工作室也更换了带有编织纹理的新地毯，且该地毯是由屋主人亲自手工制做的。最后，日式卧室的推拉门被换成了较暗的色调，以更好地匹配其余部分的材质。
A different approach characterised the upper level renovation, where the limited budget combined with the existing well-preserved conditions required only some minimal changes. The toilet received a wooden pavement reminiscent of the existing one in the hallway and the other bedrooms. The studio in the south-west corner replaced its floor too, but for the owners entirely made it DIY with a woven texture. At last, the sliding doors in the Japanese-style bedroom were replaced with a darker tone to better match the materiality of the rest.
