Abstract

AbstractIn this study, a project, which challenges the possibility of renovating wooden houses that are considered as valueless, is conducted. A 30‐year‐old used wooden house was cut in the middle and relocated by rotating the ridge on one side by 90° to secure two parking lots in parallel direction. A new façade with a depth of 45 cm, (termed as, "DOUBLE‐SKIN") was attached to control the line of sight from the exterior while incorporating the external environmental elements such as light and wind. This bold renovation increased the economic value of the used house and simultaneously reconstructed the relationship between the existing house and external environment.
