Diagonal of The Tenement House: Reconfiguration of the Two Townhouses Along Diagonal Axes – A corner lined with townhouses a little south of Kawaramachi Shijo in Kyoto. Between the two townhouses, there is a tunnel alley leading to the back, and beyond that, there are rows of houses. Two townhouses in a row facing the tunnel alley were renovated and reborn as an acupuncture clinic. The two buildings in tandem have an extremely long and narrow space with a frontage of 3.5m and a depth of 21m. In order to use this efficiently, we set diagonal axes for the two townhouses and arranged functions along them.
