TOOLBOX, a Tokyo-based company, renovated a maisonette apartment focusing on sustainable 'ReMAKE' practices. By preserving existing structures and enhancing spatial quality, this project minimized waste and costs. The original fragmented aesthetic became an asset, allowing for innovative modifications, such as a reconfigured staircase and a redesigned kitchen. Measures included creating new openings for light and utilizing reclaimed materials, reflecting a commitment to craftsmanship. Overall, this renovation challenged traditional approaches and set a benchmark for environmentally conscious design in urban settings.
TOOLBOX's approach aims to redefine renovation strategies by challenging the norm of full-skeleton renovations, opting instead for a process that enhances rather than replaces existing structures.
The renovation project emphasizes sustainability by minimizing demolition waste and focusing on retaining and repurposing materials, ultimately fostering a unique 'ReMAKE' design philosophy.
