Text description provided by the architects. The Shirokanedai House project is a meticulous renovation of a 50-year-old two-storey wooden residence situated in the vibrant Minato ward of Tokyo. The owner, a seasoned real estate professional, had long rented out the empty lot. Upon the departure of the last tenants, it came back with a property built on it. Considering the prohibitive costs of demolition in Japan coupled with the property's good condition, the owner decided to have Roovice rejuvenate and modernize the house for continued rental use.
