这项翻新项目的目的是对京都一栋19世纪末的建筑进行翻新，以更新民宿Kaikoan的接待区，并创建一个新的服装租赁店。由于功能的不同，上层和下层为用户带来了截然不同的氛围。
下层用于接待，是建筑的公共区域，具有更开放的氛围。原本隐藏在面板后面的现有柱子和横梁现在暴露在外，与一面连续的白色涂漆墙相结合。新墙的特点是圆角，环绕着柱子。这赋予墙一种模糊的品质：它是坚固的，但同时感觉像织物。此外，墙的白色以及它在横梁底部的高度为空间提供了强烈的对比。这一设计特征使墙与原有元素分离，允许柱梁结构保持开放感。
上层设计为服装租赁店，包括等候室、更衣室、化妆和发型设置区。为了呼应外墙的白色，周边墙壁和天花板的现有内饰也被涂成白色。通过这一设计特征，空间呈现出一个漂浮的白色体积，就像从一个整体中挖出来的亲密空间。空间的品质通过开口得到了进一步提升，这些开口与下层的全高开口形成对比，是墙上的洞。除了周边的柱子、横梁和墙壁，其余部分保持原样，被视为与白色体积分离的独立元素。
The purpose of this renovation project of a late nineteenth century building in Kyoto is to renew the reception area of a guesthouse, Kaikoan, and to create a new space for a costume rental shop. Due to the differences of programs, the upper level and the lower level bring distinct atmospheres to the users.
The lower level, which is used for the reception, is a public area of the building and has a more open atmosphere. The existing columns and beams, which were formerly hidden behind panels, are now exposed with a continuous white painted wall. The new wall is featured with rounded corners and wraps around the columns. This brings an ambiguous quality to the wall: it is solid but at the same time feels like fabric. Additionally, the white colour of the wall and its height at the underside level of the beams provide a strong contrast to the space. This design feature detaches the wall from the original elements, allowing the post and beam structure to retain openness.
The upper level is designed for the costume rental shop, which includes a waiting room, a changing room, a makeup and hair-setting area. In response to the white colour of the exterior wall, the existing interior finishes of the peripheral walls and the ceiling are also painted in white. With this design feature, the space is presented like a floating white volume, an intimate space as if it is scooped out from a mass. The quality of the space is further enhanced by the apertures which, in contrast to the full height openings on the lower level, are holes in the wall. The columns, beams and walls other than those on the periphery are left as they are, being treated as separate elements distinct from the white volume.
