掘出建築的本質，不是增加，而是減少。 去除磚牆粉刷層，挖掘老屋原貌，重現原始肌理。對於媒材，不做過多加工，展現材料「裸」的質感。 於此之上，重新詮釋舊元素，或為窗花，或為構件，並隨時間映射成影，新舊交融。
Excavating the essence of the building means subtraction, not addition. The plaster layer is removed from the brick walls, revealing the original form of the old house and restoring its raw texture. Materials are left with minimal processing, retaining their "bare" texture. Old elements are reinterpreted on this basis — as window lattices, as structural components — casting shadows that shift with time, old and new merging.
During the makeover and reconstruction, a slim open hanging shelving, forged by stainless wires and plates, was recessed in the massive brick wall. The wall maintains its original surface intact, presenting the roughness and coarse tactile feelings of the brick materiality. The combination between stainless modernity and old masonry carries out an artful contrast without losing the charm of apartment agedness.
