japanese architectural firm roovice have completed 'mkgo' a renovation of a 35 year
old wooden two storey house in japan.

for their project they moved the living, kitchen and dining areas to the 2nd floor to
provide more sunlight and to also soften the outside noise. the ceiling was removed
to create more space and to use the wooden structure as a feature in the design.


the house is located next to a subway station

taking note of the house's simple japanese design and layout, the renovation project is treated as a process of editing and filtering to maintain the original qualities of the architecture.
