The problem of old folk houses that are difficult to live in
"cold"
Currently, the mainstream homes in Japan are
It is a highly insulated and airtight house.
It is difficult for heat to escape and it is difficult for the heat and cold outside to be transmitted.
In comparison, old Japanese houses
The heat easily escapes, and the heat and cold outside are easily transmitted.
In other words, it's very cold.
I didn't use any insulation.
In the summer, it is cool and comfortable in the shade when the wind passes through.
It also extends the life of the building.
However, the cold suppresses human activity.
I want to live in a warm house
Improvement is absolutely necessary.
While seeking a feeling of openness on the second floor
I want to spend a warm and comfortable time in a large space.
Is it possible to achieve both?
Because there was no warmth
There was a kotatsu in Japan.
Furniture that warms the heat source under the knees.
The whole room doesn't get warm,
It is very warm from the waist down.
Kotatsu were found in most homes decades ago.
At the same time, I have suppressed the activities of Japanese people.
Warmth and happiness are often said.
However, in the current busy way of life, Kotatsu sometimes gets in the way.
Because it makes me sleepy.
In that sense, I want to improve my home.
However, a highly airtight and highly insulated house
Moisture builds up The life of the house itself is short,
It also has the drawback of about 50 years.
There is also the issue of which one to prioritize,
The old house is also well made.
I want to make a reform that combines the good points.
