| Alison Brooks设计的85座形态各异的房子作为纽荷尔的名曲,位于埃塞克斯城东部的小镇Harlow。该设计提名为2013年的瑞巴斯特灵奖,并且在今年的住房设计奖项中获得第一名。房子一直在发展,原名叫做:South Chase,寓意当地建筑的传统。“我们之所以能够成功建设这样的城市住宅是因为这些建筑都是背靠背的,并且他们都有台阶,和在整体上排列密集的形式。”Brooks 说道。 |
| 保持原来的布局,台阶布局成东西街道向,独立式住宅线处于南北大道方向,使得公寓楼处于这一地区的角落之中。对于连排房子,公司削减了庭院和前庭的花园而补全每一个小广场的方案。“我们打算设计一个T字形的方案,这样你就可以直接进入房子的中心。”她还解释说该项计划将所有的居住大楼都连接起来;“这将有助于将角落变成一个柔软的,并且更具动态的设计。” |
| 最后,她还说道人们还可以通过室外空间的使用而达到社交的目的。夏天的时候,人们可以在街道上举行派对,每一个人都将打开他们的院子前门的厨房,这样街道自然变成了一个巨大的聚会房间,这是设计师认为这项设计最大的成就。 |

Architect Alison Brooks talks about how residents come together in the streets of her firm's Be housing project in Essex, UK, in this movie produced by Living Projects.
Alison Brooks Architects designed 85 homes in a variety of typologies as part of Newhall masterplan on the eastern edge of the Essex town of Harlow.Nominated for the 2013 RIBA Stirling Prize and announced overall winner at this year's Housing Design Awards, the houses at the development, formerly named South Chase, reference the traditional local architecture.
"We were able to achieve narrower urban blocks, because they're back to back and they're terraced, and a denser overall masterplan," Brooks says.
Keeping to the original masterplan, terraces create east-west streets and detached dwellings line north-south avenues, with apartment blocks at the corners of the site.
For the terraced houses, the firm cut courtyards and front gardens into each square plan. "We were able to develop a T-shaped plan, which means you enter the house at the centre and that central hole is the hub of the house," says Brooks.
She also explains that the apartment blocks connect the scheme together: "They help the masterplan turn the corners in a slightly softer, more organic manner."
Finally, she comments on how residents use the outdoor spaces to socialise. "They use the streets for street parties in the summer," Brooks says. "Everybody opens up their kitchens on to their front courtyard... the street itself becomes a big party room, and that I think is a big achievement." |
