在爱尔兰，扩建的住房随处可见，大约有85%的爱尔兰房子属于扩建房，随着人口的增长，越来越多的家庭选择拓展居住空间。很多住房沿着农田修建，但不符合正式的规划方案或者建筑规范。这栋房子在扩建后，扩展了居住空间，保留了传统的设计元素。房子位于爱尔兰东北部的河岸旁，在原有基础上扩展了两大空间，采用直线型的设计结构，比较狭长，保留了原来的建筑风格，为家人营造更好的生活环境。 这栋房子历史悠久，建于上世纪初，现在这种住房就很少见了，自70年代起，一直处于废弃状态。直到90年代才得以修复，并在随后的2003/04年开始扩建。之前，房子的视野不算开阔，住户也没太在意。而今的住户要求建筑师在设计时拓宽房子的视野，建成后，房子的视野开阔，可看到远处的海洋和山脉，景色优美。该住房属于传统的爱尔兰小屋，设计简约，光线充足，视野较好，富有美学效果。室内有很大的客厅，还添加了主卧室和洗衣间。 译者： Odette From the architect. In the Irish domestic context the extension is ubiquitous yet largely unrecognised. Some 85% of all Irish Houses have an extension of some description and these appendages are usually constructed as a release valve from a frenetic environment caused by growing families. The extended Irish domestic dwelling is an architectural element that can be considered alongside the agricultural cluster as a building constellation that appears to grow organically. These buildings seem to defy formal planning or recognised architectural hierarchies. The project outline here aims to interpret these spatial relationships and address a divergent set of design criteria while still preserving an existing traditional element at the heart of the project. Located on the banks of a river estuary in north east Ireland, this project consists of two extensions to an existing traditional cottage. The existing cottage at the heart of this project is one room deep and three rooms long and has a linear and narrow form. This project seeks to preserve this familiar from, to maintain the architectural heritage and historical memory of what has existed on the site while addressing the tectonic requirements of providing more accommodation for the family. The original cottage dates from the early 1900’s and as with so many other buildings of this type, the cottage fell into dereliction in the 1970’s. It was restored and re-occupied in the 1990’s and then subsequently extended in 2003/04. The original cottage is orientated with little regard for views or passive solar heat gain, such considerations were seemingly of little importance to the original habitants, but they are the utmost importance to its current occupants. The views from the site are spectacular, with far reaching views of both the sea and the mountains. This project can be interpreted as where pod/plug-in architecture meets the traditional Irish cottage. In its most simplistic description the design’s overall form is a development of a diagrammatic plan that encompasses the key considerations: the sun path, the various striking views, and an intervention that has the least impact on the form of the original cottage. The occupants of the cottage chose to remain resident while the works were carried out and this programmatic requirement of the extension became part of the aesthetic. The brief asked for a large living room that should take full advantage of the sun and the sweeping views, a new master bedroom and a utility/laundry room. The existing interior of the cottage was also to be subtly re-planned.
