活在楼间Live Between Buildings

在夹缝中生存，你怎么看？悲观者自然觉得悲催，乐观者会有自己乐在其中的玩法。在房价走上上涨的单行道时，有人开始探索都市生存的另类居住方式：

Live Between Buildings（活在楼间）

。 建筑师Mateusz Mastalksi和Ole Robin Storjohann设计了各种寄生在两栋楼之间的住宅形式，虽然形态各异，但是有个共同特征：宽度仅仅数米，而高度则是数层。建筑形态看上去有些乌托邦，甚至你找不到楼梯在哪里，感觉是会让你活在童话里。不过这不重要，如果连想的勇气都没有，那就只能悲催的活在夹缝中。

Could the narrow slices of space between urban buildings be utilized as compact apartments? In an effort to make the most of existing structures in cities around the world, architects Mateusz Mastalksi and Ole Robin Storjohann envision infills consisting almost entirely of Fakro window technology, which could provide a lightweight glass framework for these small homes.

‘Live Between Buildings’ aims to create a new way of living in the city, with a minimal footprint. Each loft might be just a few meters wide, but several stories in height, including a kitchen, bathroom, living room, bedroom, swing, hammock and even an indoor garden. Ladders and stairs lead from one level to the next.

It might seem like living in the crack between two buildings would be dark and depressing, but using windows for the facade takes advantage of every bit of natural light that can be accessed. Unusual shapes, like large X’s, let light even into the very interior of these micro apartments.

The project contributes to ideas for denser, more sustainable cities of the future. Rather than tearing down existing buildings or continuing to take up every square inch of free space on the ground, it explores the many unused spaces that can easily be found if you look closely enough.
