这是一个改造奈良市老房子的项目。场地上矗立着各种不同年代的建筑，共用一个走廊和一个庭院。其中最古老和最大的是一个带有大中庭的谷仓，用于存放长木头。谷仓多年来很少使用，已经饱经风霜。业主希望将其改造成一个舒适的居住空间。

This is a project to renovate an old house in Nara City. Various buildings of different ages stand on the site, sharing a corridor and a courtyard. The oldest and largest of them is a barn with a large atrium, built to store long logs. The barn had been little used for many years and had become weathered. The client wanted to renovate it into a comfortable living space.

建筑师拆除了大量因连续渗漏而与竹框架脱离的泥墙，重建了地下室，加固了因白蚁和腐烂破坏而削弱的柱和梁，中庭改造成一个大客厅，通向日式房间、卧室、卫生间、猫房和衣柜。钢楼梯通向二楼的卧室，中庭的周边是经过结构加固的走廊。

We removed a large amount of mud walls that had detached from the bamboo framework due to continuous leaks, rebuilt the basement, reinforced columns and beams that had been weakened by termite and decay damage, and filled the roof and walls with insulation.The atrium, converted into a large living room, leads to a Japanese-style room, bedroom, sanitary room, cat room, and closet. A steel stair leads to the bedrooms on the second floor, and the perimeter of the atrium is a corridor with structural reinforcement.
