从意大利别墅的宏伟设计和反大陆的微妙有机参照物中汲取灵感，澳大利亚领先的家居饰品品牌Cultiver将位于圣莱昂纳兹的一个比例不大的仓库改造成了一个由拱形体量和触感饰面组成的姿态表达。
Drawing from the grandeur of Italian villa design and subtle organic antipodean references, a warehouse of modest proportions in St Leonards was transformed into a gestural expression of arched volumes and tactile finishes for Australia’s leading home accessories brand, Cultiver.
客户简介 – 新的旗舰展厅分为两层，需要有一些区域供贸易客户体验Cultiver的床上用品、桌布和餐巾、靠垫、浴巾和垫子以及休闲服，以展示他们的产品系列可以无缝混合的便利性。它还需要为员工提供工作和与客户联络的综合区域，以提供拍摄新产品系列照片的机会，以及一个专门的库存储存和分配空间。在美学上，它必须挥舞着色彩带来的情绪提升的影响–类似于公司的设计理念–带着一丝奢华，邀请人们随时互动。
Client Brief – Sequenced over two levels, the new flagship showroom required zones for trade customers to experience Cultiver’s range of bedding, tablecloths and napkins, cushions, bath towels and mats, plus loungewear, demonstrating the ease in which their collections could seamlessly mix and mingle. It also needed integrated areas for staff to both work and liaise with clients that offered opportunities for new product range photo shoots plus a dedicated space for stock storage and distribution. Aesthetically, it had to wield the mood enhancing impact of colour – akin to the company’s design philosophy – with a touch of luxury that invited interaction at every turn.
第一层–预算的限制，迫使我们不得不进行机智的调整，最终决定参考意大利的拱形柱廊和有边框的棋盘式大理石地板。在模式上，碧玺色的石头组成的丰富的挂毯为复兴的空间增加了一个古老的遗产。仔细观察，每块有纹路的 “瓷砖 “都是在浇筑的混凝土基座上手工绘制的，并由YSG的长期合作者Creative Finishes将它们粘合在一起。为了连接两个房间，拆除了一堵墙和一个门，一个肩形拱门取代了原有的直角回字形和铝制建筑框架装置的严重性。其精细的手工绘制的细条纹为其边缘增加了深度，同时承认了该公司亚麻制品上精致的雪松条纹设计（正如楼上的条纹木炭和巧克力地毯）。坐在开放式橡木架前的定制长椅，松散地安装了Cultiver织物，其成品边缘与拱门的扇形细节相呼应。
Level One – Budget constraints forced us to pivot resourcefully, settling on references to Italian loggias with arched colonnades plus bordered checkerboard marble floors. Holding pattern, a rich tapestry of tourmaline-hued stones add an aged legacy to the revived space. Upon closer inspection each veined ‘tile’ is hand- painted on a poured concrete base, with trompe-l’oeil grouting binding them together by long-term YSG collaborators, Creative Finishes. Removing a wall and doorway to conjoin two rooms, a shouldered arch replaces the severity of original right-angled returns and aluminium architectural framing devices. Its fine hand-drawn pinstripes add depth to its margins whilst acknowledging the delicate Cedar Stripe design on a selection of the company’s linen pieces (as does the striped charcoal and chocolate carpet upstairs). A custom ottoman seated before open oak shelving is loosely fitted with a Cultiver fabric, its finished edges echoing the scalloped details of the arch.
现有的厨房被刷新了，增加了胶叶灰/蓝色的细木工制品和一个定制的印有本地树叶纹理印记的impasto防溅板。鉴于Cultiver的纯意大利亚麻布、100%桑蚕丝和土耳其棉以及再生牛仔布都通过了OEKO-TEX®认证，自然树叶的图案也出现在复古的玻璃壁灯上，点缀在通往高空办公区的楼梯上，进一步响应了Cultiver对社会负责的面料选择过程。现有的钢制扶手被柔软的皮革缠绕着。触摸起来很温暖，让人与上面显示的范围接触。
The existing kitchen was refreshed with the addition of gumleaf grey/blue joinery and a custom impasto splashback bearing a textured imprint of native tree leaves. Further responding to Cultiver’s socially responsible fabric selection process given its pure Italian linen, 100% Mulberry silk and Turkish cotton, plus recycled denim are OEKO-TEX® certified, the natural leaf motif also appears in vintage glass wall sconces dotting the stairway to the office spaces aloft. The existing steel handrail was entwined in soft leather. Warm to the touch, it ushers engagement with the ranges displayed above.
二层 – 楼上，家庭小品通过凹陷的拱门和部分高度的墙面被轻轻地框住，这些墙面同时作为展示台，货物触手可及。即使是新建的厨房区域也有多种作用：容纳员工备餐，在餐桌旁进行餐饮和内部及外部客户会议，并在与休息区连接时为亲密的产品发布活动提供便利。拱形区域的温暖的鲑鱼赤土色调与下面的地板色调相匹配，同时在视觉上扩大了房间的深度。
Level Two – Upstairs, domestic vignettes are gently framed via recessed arches and partial height walls that dually act as display ledges with goods at arm’s reach. Even the newly built kitchen area serves multiple roles: accommodating staff meal preparation, enabling dining plus internal and external client meetings around the dining table, and facilitating intimate product launch events as it conjoins a lounge area. The warm salmon terracotta shade of the arched zone matches a floor tone beneath, whilst visually expanding the room’s depth.
Cultiver的天然亚麻布具有轻松的褶皱和预洗的柔软度，以实现 “生活 “的感觉，大量的家具和地毯都是复古的，天鹅绒面料使两个扶手椅焕然一新。作为对结构性曲线拥抱的补充，圆润的回报比比皆是，从藤制餐椅的靠背到骨质石灰岩的咖啡桌和后面的乳白色沙发，为Cultiver的季节性坐垫系列提供了一个中性的帆布。
Embracing the relaxed wrinkles and pre-washed softness of Cultiver’s natural linens to achieve a ‘lived in’ feel, a vast selection of furniture and rugs are vintage, with velveteen fabric refreshing two armchairs. Complementing the structural curved embraces, rounded returns abound, from the rattan dining chair backrests to the bone-hued travertine coffee table and nubbly cream sofa behind it that provides a neutral canvas for Cultiver’s seasonal cushion ranges to settle upon.
