However, the wooden cabin, unmanageable garden, and insufficient parking space posed challenges for the current owner, who wanted a spacious and open living environment. The decision was made to expand and renovate while preserving the RC structure.The south side was expanded to create a protective yet open living space. A wooden fence was added to enclose the southern facade, and an L-shaped sloping roof was constructed to envelop the living space above the kitchen. The design aimed to create a bright living environment that softens and opens up the previously closed-off house with a robust structure.Text description provided by the architects.This project is the renovation of a 55-year-old house that has been passed down for three generations. The original house was built with strong wall-type reinforced concrete by the grandfather of the current owner to protect his family.
