A renovation of a 40-year-old RC condominium, a house where the space was composed from the idea of "storing clothes". The client told us that he likes to try on clothes at home and display his favorite clothes or clothes he just bought. They wanted a large closet space, but instead of completely hiding their clothes, we placed a large closet space in the center of the PLAN. We called it a "dress room," and at the same time it is a passageway, divided into show and hide storage, a space that changes constantly according to the situation and the season at that time. By doing so, we believe that fashion has become a part of the daily life of the residents, and that it has become a place where their mood changes every time they pass through this space. The interior is composed of mortar and steel while utilizing the existing frame, and is finished in a gray color that allows the space to be colored by the clothes and furniture.
