位于Dalston的Gillett广场的Bradbury Works现在已经向新的和返回的租户重新开放了大门。新建筑包括翻新600平方米的现有可负担的工作空间,更换10个迷你零售单位,并在两层楼的扩建部分提供近500平方米的额外工作空间。白普理工程是首都最独特的、以社区为中心的公共空间之一,是其发展历程中的下一步。

Bradbury Works in Gillett Square, Dalston, has now re-opened its doors to new and returning tenants. The new building includes the refurbishment of 600m2 of existing affordable workspace, the replacement of ten mini retail units, and the provision of almost 500m2 of extra workspace in a two-story extension. Bradbury Works is the next step in the evolving story of one of the most unique and community-focused public spaces in the capital.

该方案希望保留现有建筑的最佳属性,包括其租户,同时提供额外的灵活空间,以适应各种业务。面对广场,新的10平方米的零售舱提供了完全可打开的玻璃门面,在关闭时由异型金属门进一步保护安全和隐私,但在打开时可以用充满活力的标志来改变各个空间。

The scheme looks to retain the best attributes of the existing building including its tenants while providing additional flexible spaces to suit a variety of businesses. Facing into the square, new 10m2 retail pods are provided with fully openable glazed frontages which are further protected by profiled metal gates for security and privacy when closed but can transform the individual spaces with vibrant signage when open.

现有的维多利亚式露台的原始砖石结构被保留、翻新,提供10-36平方米的小型和中型工作空间单元,同时保留了面向白普理街的现有商店、酒吧和餐馆。一个有盖的双高外部露台空间提供了通往上部单位的通道。野餐桌、常绿蕨类植物和攀缘植物旨在鼓励租户在所有的季节里聚在一起,增加与广场的互动。在三楼,有私人夹层的新工作空间由一个朝南的外部平台进入。

The original masonry structure of the existing Victorian terrace has been retained, refurbished, and renovated, providing small and medium 10-36m2 workspace units while preserving the existing shops, bars, and restaurants facing onto Bradbury Street. A covered double-height external terrace space provides access to the upper units. Picnic tables, evergreen ferns, and climbing plants intend to encourage tenants to come together in all seasons and increase interaction with the square. On the third floor, new workspaces with private mezzanine levels in the pitch are accessed by a south-facing external deck.

通过现有的入口进入新建筑,该入口被保留下来,并通过提供一个新的全玻璃入口进行了改进。新的品牌和导向标识是由[Y/N]工作室设计的。现有的楼梯间和入口处被重新粉刷成青色、品红、黄色和黑色,指的是 “CMYK “印刷颜色范围,这四种简单而对比强烈的颜色可以用来创造任何艺术作品。

Access to the new building is via the existing entrance which has been retained and improved by providing a new fully glazed entrance. New branding and wayfinding signage was designed by [Y/N] Studio. The existing stairwell and entrance have been repainted with the colors Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black) referring to the ‘CMYK’ printing color range where four simple and contrasting colors combined can be used to create any artwork.

这反映了该建筑要成为一个文化和学科的大熔炉的雄心壮志,比其各部分的总和还要大。在大楼的所有其他区域,柔和的灰色地板和白色油漆墙面的简单色调使租户可以根据自己的要求和个性来定制自己的空间。

This mirrors the ambition for the building to become a melting pot of cultures and disciplines that are greater than the sum of their parts. In all other areas of the building, a simple color palette of muted grey flooring and white-painted walls allows tenants the agency to customize their space to suit their requirements and personalities.

最后,建筑被均匀的聚碳酸酯外墙所包裹,并以异型磨光的铝制底座和屋顶完成。轻质和反光的表皮创造了一个单一形式的外观,然而,仔细观察,材料的半透明特性使得白色油漆的砖块外墙和露台从外面仍然可见。

Finally, the building is wrapped in a homogenous polycarbonate façade and completed with a profiled mill-finished aluminum base and roof. The lightweight and reflective skin creates the appearance of a singular form, however, on closer inspection the translucent character of the material allows the white-painted brick façade and the terrace to remain visible from the outside.

在后面,外墙允许大量的光线进入工作区和休息区。在白天,包层反映了天空和外部环境的颜色变化,而在晚上则发光,显示出内部活动。

Behind, the façade allows for plenty of light to enter the workspaces and breakout spaces. During the daytime, the cladding reflects the changing colors of the sky and external environment while glowing at night to reveal internal activities.
