建筑面积:2000平方英尺(185.81平方米) 这是一个为退休夫妇设计的项目,设计融入了许多方便的空间。项目将扩建的部分放置在后花园空间,通过一个透明的走廊空间将新空间与既有的农仓结构相连,这个透明的通道方便了既有结构,同时将花园空间延展至了室内核心部分。新的附加体包括两个漂浮的体量:位于既有住宅的西侧的卧室被继续延展,直到住宅的后侧,形成一个能够容纳多余卧室的木质管道结构,卧室尽头向着花园敞开。第二个体量包含厨房餐厅区和过渡区。主要空间东侧的木质墙壁折叠覆盖两个浑然的混凝土墙壁,继而共同形成主要的屋顶板面。两个独特的体量,卧室管道和屋顶板面,都通过使用透明性,干净的极简主义细节和简单的材料创造出与花园的有效连接。 This project was designed for a retiring couple, and necessitated the need for accessible space. The project ties the new addition in the rear garden area to an existing mid century ranch house by way of a transparent hallway that provides accessibility to the existing structure and allows the garden to extend into the core of the house. The new addition comprises two floating volumes. The bedroom wing/volume on the West side of the existing house is continued toward the back as a wood tube form to accommodate an additional bedroom. The end of the bedroom volume is left open to the garden. The second volume houses the kitchen/dining and media area. The East wood wall plane of the main space is folded over onto two monolith concrete walls to form the main roof plane. The two wood volumes the “bedroom tube” and the “roof plane” both create a connection and openness to the garden by using transparency, clean minimal detail and simple materials.
