[0021] After the inner window 3 and the heat insulation panel 4 are attached to the indoor side of the wall body 1, the furniture 9 shown in FIG. 4 is arranged. The furniture 9 is formed of, for example, wood and includes a first row portion 91, a second row portion 92, a third row portion 93, a fourth row portion 94, and a fifth row portion 95. The first row portion 91, the second row portion 92, the third row portion 93, the fourth row portion 94, and the fifth row portion 95 are provided so as to be arranged in this order from right to left as viewed from the indoor side. The first row portion 91, the second row portion 92, and the fourth row portion 94 each include a shelf 9A with a lower door, a two-stage open shelf 9B provided above the shelf 9A with a lower door, and a first upper shelf 9C with an upper door provided above the upper open shelf 9B. The third row portion 93 includes a bench 9D located between the left and right shelves 9A with lower doors and a second upper shelf 9E located between the left and right first upper shelves 9C with upper doors. A rectangular opening 96 for exposing the inner window shoji is provided at the upper and lower right center of the third row portion 93. The opening 96 for exposing the inner window shoji is composed of a lower back plate 931 constituting the bench 9D, a bottom plate 932 (see FIG. 1) constituting the second upper shelf �E, and a pair of support columns 97 supporting the lower back plate 931 and the bottom plate 932. The fifth column section 95 is equipped with a decorative panel 9F. The decorative panel 9F has approximately the same thickness as the back panels 911, 921, 941 of the lower shelf with door 9A, the open shelf 9B, and the first upper shelf with door 9C that constitute the first, second, and fourth columns 91, 92, and 94, as well as the upper back panel 933 of the second upper shelf with door 9E that constitutes the third column section 93, and is provided so that its interior surface lies approximately flush with the interior surfaces of each back panel 911, 921, 941 and the upper back panel 933. In the following description, each back panel 911, 921, 941, the lower back panel 931, the upper back panel 933, the decorative panel 9F, and the support columns 97 that support them may be collectively referred to as the back panel section 98.

[0022] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the furniture 9 is positioned such that the opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash exposes the inner window sash 32 in the closed position to the interior side, and the bottom plate 932 and back plate portion 98 abut against the interior end faces of the upper member 311, lower member 312, right vertical member 313, and left vertical frame member 315 that constitute the inner frame body portion 31. In this simple manner, by simply positioning the furniture 9 so that it abuts against the inner frame body portion 31, a gap S is formed between the interior wall 12 and the insulation panel 4 and the back plate portion 98. Note that the furniture 9 only needs to be positioned so that a gap S is formed, and it may also be positioned so that it does not abut against the interior end faces of the upper member 311, lower member 312, right vertical member 313, and left vertical frame member 315. Of the gap S, the portion to the left of the inner window sash 32 in the closed position and to the right of the left vertical frame member 315 functions as an inner window sash gap S1 for pulling the inner window sash 32 into the open position.

[0023] Next, the method for renovating wall 1 will be explained. Note that the renovation procedure is not limited to the procedure shown below; any procedure is acceptable as long as the interior window 3, insulation panel 4, and furniture 9 are installed, as shown in Figures 1 to 3. First, the inner window 3 is installed in the wall opening 115 of the building frame 11 where the outer window 2 is installed. Next, the insulation panel 4 is installed on the inner wall 12 so as to surround the inner frame 31 of the inner window 3. Then, the inner window sash 32, which is in the closed position of the opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash, is exposed to the interior side, and the furniture 9 is arranged so that a gap S1 for the inner window sash is formed.

[0024] According to the above embodiment, the furniture 9 is arranged so that a gap S1 for the inner window sash is formed. Therefore, by sliding the inner window sash 32 to the open position and opening the wall opening 115 more than halfway, maintenance of the outer window 2 and operation of the outer window 2 handle 23 can be easily performed, and ventilation through the outer window 2 and inner window 3 is improved. In addition, since the inner window sash 32 in the open position is hidden by the furniture 9, a decrease in the aesthetic appearance of the room can be suppressed. An insulation panel 4 is attached to the interior wall 12. This improves the insulation of the room. The furniture 9 is provided with an opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash. As a result, the area around the inner window sash 32 in the closed position is surrounded by the furniture 9, which enhances the sense of unity between the inner window 3 and the furniture 9. As furniture 9, a configuration including bench 9D is applied. Therefore, an interior space with bench 9D can be provided.

[0025] [Differentiation] It is not necessary to install the insulation panel 4 on the interior wall 12. The sliding direction of the inner window sash 32 may be in the Y-axis direction (up and down direction). The outer window may be a sliding window or a fixed window. By configuring the furniture 9 with, for example, only the fourth row section 94 and the fifth row section 95, it is possible to avoid providing an opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash and to avoid surrounding the inner window sash 32 in the closed position with the furniture 9. Furniture 9 does not necessarily have to include bench 9D; instead of bench 9D, or along with bench 9D, a desk, drawers, etc., may be included. Furniture 9 may consist only of decorative panels.

[0026] [Summary of the invention] The wall renovation structure of the present invention is a wall renovation structure in which an outer window is installed in a wall opening, an inner window is installed in the wall opening, furniture is placed on the interior side of the wall, the inner window comprises one inner window sash and a sliding part that slides the inner window sash between a closed position that closes the wall opening and an open position that opens the wall opening, and a gap for the inner window sash is formed between the wall and the furniture for retracting the inner window sash to the open position. According to the present invention, the outer window can be easily maintained by sliding the inner window sash to the open position and opening the wall. Furthermore, since the inner window sash in the open position is hidden by furniture, the deterioration of the interior design can be suppressed.

[0027] In the wall renovation structure of the present invention, it is preferable that an insulating panel is attached to the inner wall of the wall so as to surround the inner window and so as to form a gap for the inner window sash between the inner wall and the furniture. According to the present invention, the thermal insulation of the room can be improved.
