阳光是变革性的。它有能力改变一个空间的体验，以及我们的生活方式、感觉和彼此之间的关系。我们将澳大利亚人对自然光和开放式生活的亲和力带到了伦敦东部的联排别墅Butterfly House，同时保留了其经典的英国细节和情感。
Sunlight is transformative. It has the ability to change the experience of a space, as well as how we live, feel and relate to one another. We brought our Australian affinity for natural light and open-plan living to Butterfly House, an East London townhouse, while retaining its classic English details and sentiment.
这座90平方米的住宅位于东伦敦的一个突出街区，这个后工业地区已经被充满活力的创意和创新社区以及精品店和画廊所改变。像许多传统的英国联排别墅一样，由于房间狭小、受限和相邻的邻居，它是黑暗和拥挤的。客户要求Biasol为这栋过时的建筑注入新的活力，为一对年轻的现代夫妇和他们未来的家庭创造一个现代的家。经过改造，联排别墅的一楼是开放式的客厅、餐厅和厨房，二楼是两间卧室和浴室。
The 90-square-metre home is located on a prominent block in East London, a post-industrial area that has been transformed by vibrant creative and innovative communities and boutique stores and galleries. Like many traditional English townhouses, it was dark and cramped due to small, constrained rooms and adjoining neighbours. The client tasked Biasol with breathing new life into the dated building to create a contemporary home for a young, modern couple and their future family. Now transformed, the townhouse has open-plan living, dining and kitchen on the first floor, and two bedrooms and bathrooms on the second floor.
我们拆除了一楼的墙壁，使之成为一个开放和充满光线的客厅、餐厅和厨房区域。利用我们的产品设计背景，我们定制了独立的模块化厨房单元，使房间感觉像是客厅和用餐区的延伸。低线的细木工制品创造了更大的空间感；去掉上面的橱柜，使视线不受阻碍；集成电器给人一种聪明的外观和感觉。海军蓝细木工板配以白色和深色大理石，现代、优雅，并以黄铜作为点缀，现有的地板和壁炉模子保留了联排别墅的古典英国特色。
We removed the walls on the first floor allowing for an open and light-filled living, dining and kitchen area. Drawing on our product design background, we custom designed the freestanding modular kitchen units to make the room feel like an extension of the living and dining area. The low-line joinery creates a greater sense of space; removal of upper cabinetry allows for unobstructed sight lines; and integrated appliances give a smart look and feel. Navy-blue joinery with white and dark marble is modern, elegant and accented with brass, and the existing floorboards and fireplace mouldings retain the townhouse’s classic English character.
在卧室和浴室，我们强调了独特的蝴蝶屋顶，房子也因此而得名，并安装了新的天窗以增加自然光。浴室和厨房一样，采用了Biasol公司设计的海军蓝色的独立式装置。人字形大理石瓷砖覆盖了墙壁，唤起了传统的英国风格，而黄铜水龙头则是从澳大利亚进口的。
In the bedrooms and bathrooms, we accentuated the distinctive butterfly roof, for which the house is named, and installed new skylights to increase natural light. The bathrooms, like the kitchen, have navy-blue freestanding units designed by Biasol. Herringbone marble tiles clad the walls and evoke traditional English style, while brass tapware is imported from Australia.
蝴蝶屋，就像蝴蝶一样，现在沐浴在阳光下。通过最大限度地利用自然光，我们对这个以前黑暗的东伦敦联排别墅的设计抓住了阳光可以给空间带来的能量，从而增强了家庭关系和健康。
Butterfly House, like the butterfly, now basks in the sun. By maximising natural light, our design for this formerly dark East London townhouse has captured the energy sunlight can bring to a space and thereby enhancing family relationships and wellbeing.
