一間擁有九十年歷史的京都傳統街屋，在本案整修成為私人住宅。在介入手法上，我們試著去看見日本木造建築數千年來的「歷史」，那往往潛藏在表層底下的歷史。舉例來說，利用編竹夾泥牆在砌造時必須先經過層層構建，但最終我們只看到完工後的最外層。於是，我們選擇大膽露出竹製的底架，不加以粉刷，讓最原始的日本營建工法作為房子的一層「歷史」被看見。房子裡的每一項細節也以同樣的方式，忠實呈現組建的程序，讓身處於此空間裡的人能享受到豐富的「時間感」。

「時間」不斷向前推移，尤其是周遭的自然，應該經由我們精心設計的窗口，放鬆心情去觀察感受。紅窗簾是最近才加裝的，歡迎所有訪客到來並彰顯本案的介入。

Traditional row house in Kyoto, which is about 90 years old, renovated into private dwelling. For this intervention, we tried to visualize thousands years of “History” of Japanese wooden architecture which is usually hidden in the surface. For example, the mud wall fixed on the bamboo-lattice has many layers from construction process, but we only can see the finishing layer. We dare to exposed bamboo base without finishing, to visualize very primitive Japanese construction technique, as 1 layer of “History” of this house. In the same way, every detail of this house was designed for showing the process of assemble, to make people in this space enjoy the rich “Time” experience.

Ongoing “Time” ~ especially the nature of the surroundings ~ should be observed from the window, where we　carefully designed as a place to relax. Red colored curtain was installed most recently, to welcome the guest and celebrate this intervention.
