在波尔图的中心,一个前工人阶级社区的19世纪初的废弃住宅结构已被修复为一个繁荣的微型世界。该项目是对Bairro do Silva的干预,这是一个19世纪初的住宅结构,位于波尔图的一个城市街区内。这是一个典型的前工人阶级社区,也被称为 “Ilha”。在过去的几十年里,这个建筑被遗弃了,但它有一个强烈的、乡土的和浪漫的身份。它已经有了非常明显的空间丰富性,这来自于它复杂的系统–不同的通道、小巷、高度、层次和小规模的住房模式。

In the center of Porto, an abandoned dwelling structure from the early 19th century in a former working-class neighborhood has been rehabilitated into a flourishing microcosm. The project constitutes the intervention in Bairro do Silva, a dwelling structure from the early 19th century, settled inside a city block in Porto. A former working-class neighborhood is typical in the city, also known as “Ilha”. The structure was left abandoned in the last decades, but with a strong, bucolic, and romantic identity. It had already a very pronounced spatial richness that came from its complex system – different accesses, alleys, heights, hierarchies, and small-scale housing models.

一个城中村。这个想法经历了一个清晰和减法的过程。对小型互补性结构的修订,时间挤满了空间。为了寻求秩序,该项目设置了新的等级制度,改变了对空间的理解和使用。定义了一个新的到达空间、过渡小巷、公共区域和绿色空间,取代了过去的曲折、未定义和迷宫式的空间。

A village within a city. The idea went through a process of clarity and subtraction. A revision of small complementary structures that time huddled and filled the space. Seeking order, the project sets new hierarchies that change the understanding and usage of the space. Defining a new arrival space, transition alleys, communal areas, and green spaces that replaced what used to be tortuous, undefined, and labyrinthine.

修复过程保持了建筑群的总体配置,力求尊重其基本形态。有一个共同点来指导这个过程–项目需要适应场地而不是场地适应项目。

The rehabilitation process maintained the general configuration of the complex, seeking to respect its basic morphology. There was a common ground that guided the process – the project needed to adapt to the site rather than the site to the project.

一个新的混凝土体量定义了入口天井,还具有一组镜像混凝土楼梯。外部空间的特点是现有屋檐的剪影。Mansard屋顶点缀了小巷。具有不同质地的灰色调试图定义一种统一的感觉。它坚持了现有花岗岩的表达方式,现在又辅以喷砂混凝土、喷漆瓦片、灰泥、木质框架和钢材。这种中立性被树木、灌木和花朵的颜色所平衡。

A new concrete volume defined the entrance patio, also featuring a set of mirrored concrete stairs. The exterior space is strongly characterized by the silhouettes of the existing gable roofs. Mansard roofs punctuate the alleys. A gray palette with different textures seeks to define a sense of unity. It holds to the expression of the existing granite, complemented now by the sandblasted concrete, the painted shingles, the plaster, the wood frames, and the steel. This neutrality is balanced by the color of the trees, the bushes, and the flowers.

室内通过对现有结构解决方案的现代处理,找到了清晰和简单的感觉。木梁是空间的特征,限制性的材料调色板确定了每个单元的共同表达—石膏、橡木、大理石和混凝土。在公共区域的中心,一个富有表现力的楼梯在一个圆形天窗下展开。一个精致的黄铜和木质扶手总结了干预的前提。一个深思熟虑的方法,寻求改写历史而不破坏这个地方的精神。

The interior finds clarity and simplicity through a contemporary take on existing structural solutions. Wooden beams characterize the spaces and a restricted material palette defines a common expression in every unit – plaster, oak, marble, and concrete. In the center of the common areas, an expressive staircase unfolds under a circular skylight. A delicate brass and wood handrail sum up the premise of the intervention. A thoughtful approach that seeks to rewrite history without breaking the spirit of the place.
