在一个越来越愤世嫉俗的世界，人们渴望自然的居所，委托人edgeland为一名科幻小说作家着迷二十一世纪人类居住的城市边界，废弃的工业区。Bercy Chen
Studio也有兴趣在架构调整特殊性的地方。不像查尔斯上校晚安第一个挖出来在第十九世纪德克萨斯JA牧场，设计的灵感来自“坑的房子“白话，在美国土著最古老的住宅类型。采用回收技术以降低对环境的最小化干扰，修复了以前发掘雪佛龙管道在悬崖上留下了痕迹，恢复的边坡像两个绿色屋顶的翅膀，这样做是为了掩护夏日的太阳并带来野生动物。这种方法解决了德克萨斯中部的气候和利用地球的热容量调节温度，而线性庭院的中心，让新鲜空气自由流动。院子里是一个观察迁移的鸟类，蝴蝶的剧院，甚至蚂蚁……等，提高城市环境的性质的认识。并恢复超过40个本地物种的野花和草，以保护当地的生态系统。
In an increasingly generic and de-natured world, we are interested in producing
architecture tuned to the specificity of a place. The Edgeland residence is
commissioned by a science fiction writer enthralled with 21st century human
habitation in the urban frontiers of abandoned industrial zones.
Not unlike
Col Charles Goodnight’s first dug out at the JA ranch in 19th century Texas, the
design is inspired by the vernacular of the “pit house”, one of the oldest
housing typology in North America used by Native Americans through the
ages.
This brownfield reclaim project minimized disturbance to the site, as
the previous excavations to remove an old Chevron pipeline left a scar on the
bluff, the two new green roofed wings sheltering each other from the sun is an
attempt to heal the land by restoring the slope and bring wildlife back.
This
approach addresses the climate of central Texas and utilize thermal capacity of
earth to regulate temperature, while the linear courtyard down the center
allows fresh air to flow between the bluff and the river below. The courtyard
is a theater for observing migrating humming birds, monarch butterflies, even
ant colonies…etc, heightening one’s awareness of nature in an urban
setting.
We collaborated with the Lady Bird Wildflower Center to reintroduce
over 40 native species of wildflowers and grass to preserve the local
ecosystem.
