Curl Curl的房子是对材料、时间和成本效率的一种练习。具体的项目简介包括两间带内置衣柜的卧室、浴室/洗衣房、一个开放式的餐厅、厨房、生活空间和一个露台。客户还要求该住宅从车棚和主入口处延伸到一个层面。

The Curl Curl House was an exercise in material, time, and cost efficiency. A specific project brief included two bedrooms with built-in robes, bathroom/laundry, an open plan dining, kitchen, living space, and a deck. The Client also required that the home was to be at one level extending from the carport and main entrance.

共享车道、服务地役权和紧凑的场地影响了建筑围护结构的形式,并允许在不牺牲外部舒适度的情况下最大限度地扩大内部楼层面积;设计的每个方面都经过了仔细的考虑。建筑物的弯曲形式所带来的主要挑战是如何解决狭窄车道的圆周问题。为了实现曲线,我们采用了胶合板的顶部和底部与紧密间隔的螺柱相结合的方式。对这个场地限制的成功谈判是通往住宅主入口的深色雪松曲线。

A shared driveway, a services easement, and a compact site influenced the form of the building envelope and allowed for the internal floor area to be maximised without sacrificing external amenity; at just under 100m² every aspect of the design has been carefully considered. The main challenge that arose from the curved form of the building was negotiating the circumference of the narrow driveway. In order to achieve the curve, plywood top and bottom plates were employed in conjunction with tightly spaced studs. The successful negotiation of this site constraint is the dark cedar curve leading to the main entrance of the dwelling.

由于现有的共享车道沿着住宅的东侧立面经过生活区,视觉隐私也是需要解决的一个重要问题。沿着这个立面的窗户开口被最小化了,并且在这些开口上放置了雪松屏风,以防止路人看到生活区。这些屏风被赋予了天然的油饰,通过用温暖的元素打破黑色的红柏覆层,在立面上形成了一种调节;它们也可以很容易地被拆除以进行维护。

With the existing shared driveway running past the living areas along the Eastern façade of the dwelling, visual privacy was also an important issue that needed to be addressed. Window openings along this façade were minimised, and the openings that were created had cedar screens placed over them to prevent passers-by from looking into the living areas. These screens were given a natural oil finish and create modulation in the facade by breaking up the black cedar cladding with a warmer element; they can also be easily removed for maintenance.

为了弥补这个立面最小的开口,一个蜿蜒的天窗贯穿了东墙的长度,使光线能够穿透生活区。构成住宅屋顶结构的层压单板木材(LVL)横梁与天窗相交于一个严格的网格,并要求与外墙的壁架精确对齐。通过仔细的细节设计和工艺,通常是隐蔽的结构元素已经变成了一个设计特征。

To compensate for having minimal openings along this façade, a sinuous skylight runs the length of the Eastern wall, allowing light to penetrate the living areas. The Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL) beams forming the roof structure for the dwelling intersect the skylight on a rigorous grid, and required precise alignment with studwork to the external wall. Through careful detailing and craftsmanship, what would ordinarily be a concealed structural element has been turned into a design feature.

客户对住宅的具体要求是在一个层面上,因此决定将建筑抬高600毫米,以配合车棚的水平。由于提高了楼层结构,可以在底层空间安装一个宽敞的储水系统,并且可以在生活和私人区域实现干净无阻的跨度。地板和屋顶结构都使用了连续跨度的LVL建筑系统,屋顶梁由一个中央脊柱单元支撑。这个脊柱单元有几个功能;它支撑着屋顶横梁,为建筑提供刚性,并容纳了住宅的服务核心,包括湿润区域、起居室细木家具、衣柜空间和一般的存储空间。脊柱还将东边的公共空间和西边的私人空间分开。

The Client’s specific requirement for the dwelling to be at one level informed the decision to raise the building 600mm above street level, to match the level of the carport. As a result of raising the floor structure, a generous water storage system could be installed in the sub-floor space and clean unobstructed spans in the living and private areas could be achieved. A construction system of continuous span LVL was used for both the floor and roof structure, with the roof beams being supported by a central spine unit. This spine unit performs several functions; it supports the roof beams, provides rigidity to the building and houses the service core of the home, incorporating wet areas, Living Room joinery, wardrobe space and general storage. The spine also separates the public spaces to the East from the private spaces to the West.

由于土地面积为259平方米,预算不多,施工计划为24周,因此在设计和施工过程的各个方面都采用了精简和高效的方法。最终的结果是一个高度细节化和深思熟虑的建筑,响应了客户的要求、预算、季节性气候条件和空间目标。

With a land area of 259m², a modest budget and a construction program of 24 weeks, a streamlined and efficient approach was adopted with all aspects of the design and construction process. The end result is a highly-detailed and considered building that responded to the Client’s brief, budget, seasonal climatic conditions and spatial goals.
