[0021] After the interior window 3 and insulation panel 4 are installed on the interior side of the wall 1, the furniture 9 shown in Figure 4 is placed there. The furniture 9 is made of wood, for example, and comprises a first row 91, a second row 92, a third row 93, a fourth row 94, and a fifth row 95. The first row 91, second row 92, third row 93, fourth row 94, and fifth row 95 are arranged in this order from right to left when viewed from the interior side. The first row section 91, the second row section 92, and the fourth row section 94 each include a shelf with a lower door 9A, two open shelves 9B located above the lower shelf with a door 9A, and a first upper shelf with a door 9C located above the upper open shelf 9B. The third row section 93 comprises a bench 9D located between the left and right lower shelves 9A with doors, and a second upper shelf 9E located between the left and right first upper shelves 9C with doors. A rectangular opening 96 for exposing an inner window sash is provided in the right center in the vertical direction of the third row section 93. The opening 96 for exposing an inner window sash is composed of a lower back plate 931 that constitutes the bench 9D, a bottom plate 932 (see Figure 1) that constitutes the second upper shelf 9E with doors, and a pair of support columns 97 that support 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. The back plate portion 98 and the bottom plate 932 constitute an opening forming portion that forms an opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash.

[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. Furthermore, with the arrangement described above, when viewed from inside the room, the lower inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash (the upper end surface of the lower back plate 931) overlaps with the lower inner edge of the inner frame body 31 (the upper surface of the lower frame portion 312A in the lower member 312). The upper inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash (the lower surface of the bottom plate 932) overlaps with the upper inner edge of the inner frame body 31 (the lower surface of the upper frame portion 311A ​​in the upper member 311). The right inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash (the left surface of the right support column 97) is located outside the right inner edge of the inner frame body 31 (the left surface of the right frame portion 313A in the right vertical member 313), and inside the right outer edge (the right surface of the right frame portion 313A). The left inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash (the right side of the left support column 97) is located inward from the left inner edge of the inner frame body 31 (the right side of the left frame material 314).

[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 first embodiment described above, when viewed from inside the room, the furniture 9 is positioned such that the upper and lower inner edges of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash overlap the upper and lower inner edges of the inner frame 31, respectively, the right inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash is located outside the right inner edge of the inner frame 31 but inside the right outer edge, and the left inner edge of the opening 96 for the exposed inner window sash is located inside the left inner edge of the inner frame 31. The furniture 9 and the inner frame 31 are made of wood, and the same or similar designs are applied to their respective design surfaces. Therefore, the inner window 3 and furniture 9 can be placed on the interior side of the wall 1 without losing the sense of unity in the room. The design surface refers to the outer surface of the furniture 9 and the inner frame 31, which is visible to people inside the room. The opening forming section 96 for exposing the inner window sash and the inner frame section 31 are formed from separate components. Therefore, the furniture 9 and the inner frame section 31 can be placed separately, making the placement process easier. An insulation panel 4 is attached to the interior wall 12. This improves the insulation of the room. As furniture 9, a configuration including bench 9D is applied. Therefore, an interior space with bench 9D can be provided.

[0025] [Second Embodiment] A second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. As shown in Figure 5, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it includes an inner frame body 51 instead of an inner frame body 31, and in the configuration of the second upper door shelf 9E. The inner frame body 51 differs from the first embodiment in that it includes an upper member 511 made of wood instead of the upper member 311. The upper member 511 includes an upper frame portion 311A, an upper sliding portion 311B, and a bottom plate portion 511A. The bottom plate portion 511A has the same shape as the bottom plate 932 of the first embodiment and is provided to extend from the upper sliding portion 311B toward the interior. The bottom plate portion 511A constitutes the bottom plate of the second upper door shelf 9E instead of the bottom plate 932 of the first embodiment. According to the second embodiment described above, the bottom plate portion 511A, which is at least a part of the opening forming portion that forms the opening 96 for exposing the inner window sash, is integrally formed with the upper frame portion 311A ​​and the upper sliding portion 311B as part of the inner frame portion 51. Therefore, the sense of unity in the room can be further improved.

As shown in Figure 6, the third embodiment differs from the second embodiment in that it includes an inner frame body 61 instead of an inner frame body 51. The inner frame portion 61 differs from the second embodiment in that it includes a lower member 612 made of wood instead of the lower member 312. The lower member 612 comprises a lower frame portion 312A, a lower sliding portion 312B, and a lower extension portion 612A. The lower extension portion 612A has the same shape as the upper surface of the lower back plate 931 in a plan view and is provided to extend inward from the lower sliding portion 312B. In other words, the lower extension portion 612A is formed such that the position of the Z-axis direction of the indoor end face is the same as the indoor side surface of the lower back plate 931.

[0027] [Differentiation] In the first to third embodiments, a configuration in which the inner frame parts 31, 51, 61 and the furniture 9 are formed from wood was illustrated. However, one component may be formed from wood, and the other component from a material other than wood, such as metal, and a sheet material or film with the same or similar design as the wood may be attached to its design surface. The inner frame parts 31, 51, 61 and the furniture 9 may also be formed from a material other than wood, such as metal, with the same or similar design applied to its design surface. The entire inner frame portions 31, 51, and 61 may be integrally formed with the opening-forming portion of the furniture 9. It is not necessary to install the insulation panel 4 on the interior wall 12. 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.
