This renovation project revitalizes a late Edo–period “kominka” in Osaka. As the eldest daughter’s family joined the household, the main house’s second floor—unused for 80 years—was renewed as a modern living space, while the first floor was preserved as an extraordinary “Hare” space. Revaluing the “kominka” as a family and community asset, the client, designers, and builders promoted reclaimed-material reuse through resource circulation, aiming for sustainable “living succession.”
