简介
FABER-HOUSE坐落在新加坡西部的一个独特的节点上，看起来与它的奢华环境完美契合—在这个舒适的飞地里，在古朴的平房中。这个定制住宅的设计是为了满足客户的特殊需求，他们最关心的是家庭和朋友。由于地块面积较大，设计团队选择将新房子调整到场地的一侧。这一决定优化了空间的使用，新的布局允许包括一个花园和一个游泳池。

Introduction
Reclining within an exclusive node in western Singapore, FABER-HOUSE looks perfectly suited to its lavish milieu – at home amongst the quaint bungalows in this cosy enclave. This bespoke residence was designed to fulfil the specific needs of the client, where their two foremost considerations were family and friends. Working with a sizeable plot of land, the design team opted to realign the new house to one side of the site. This decision optimized space usage, with the new layout allowing the inclusion of a garden and a lap pool.

建筑师以一种微妙而独特的设计理念来处理这个项目，简洁流畅的线条和深思熟虑的材料选择，最终形成了一个优雅的设计和不可否认的大胆点缀。FABER-HOUSE有两个长方形的体量，相互叠加，形成住宅的核心。沙色的木板立面位于入口门厅，将石子铺成的车道与后面的游泳池和户外平台分开。入口门厅的立面由锆石木制成，首次引入了体现在整个FABER-HOUSE的木材主题。

The architects approached this project with an underlying design ethos that was subtle yet distinctive, where clean flowing lines and thoughtful material selection culminates in an elegant design with undeniably bold touches. FABER-HOUSE features two rectangular volumes stacked atop one another, forming the core of the residence. A sand-coloured wood panel façade lines the entrance foyer, separating the stone-lined driveway from the lap pool and outdoor deck just behind. Made from zircon wood, the façade at the entrance foyer first introduces the timber motif that manifests throughout FABER-HOUSE.

底层
入口大厅后退，显示出戏剧性的生活区。为了消除内部和外部空间之间的限制，建筑师设计了一个可伸缩的玻璃窗系统，可以轻松地滑动和折叠，为空间提供多功能性。居住区可以轻松地从开放空间切换到玻璃封闭空间，内部空间毫不费力地向外部延伸，给FABER-HOUSE带来了极高的视觉流动性。围绕FABER-HOUSE大院外围的丰富的花园空间与凉爽的蓝色瓷砖游泳池和诱人的木质甲板交相辉映，创造出引人注目的色彩和纹理的并置。

Ground Floor
The entrance hall recedes to reveal the dramatic living area. Endeavouring to erase the limit between interior and exterior spaces, the architects devised a system of retractable glass windows that could slide and fold with great ease, providing versatility to space. The living area easily switches from open-air to glass enclosed, as the interior cascades effortlessly towards the exterior giving FABER-HOUSE supreme visual flow. The fecund garden spaces that bound the outer edges of the FABER-HOUSE compound bleed into the cool blue-tiled lap pool and alluring timber decks, creating a striking juxtaposition of colours and textures.

入口处熟悉的木材图案被重复使用，框住了隐藏有品位的艺术品的面板–将令人窒息的宽敞起居区与相邻的厨房区划清。展开这些面板，可以看到一个真正的厨师之梦。石材和瓷砖的光滑、深色饰面使空间更有气势，醒目的单人厨房岛指挥着整个房间。顶级的厨房设施被时尚地安排，因为空间被设想为一个烹饪实验室，家庭中的常驻厨师可以将各种美食幻想变成令人胃口大开的现实。一个壮观的雕塑楼梯占据了双体积空间，连接了FABER-HOUSE的不同楼层。楼梯由折叠的黑色金属板制成，用于将地下室和底层的公共区域与顶层的私人住所隔开。当客人被带到地下室的娱乐区时，上层就被严格地留给了家人。

The familiar timber motif from the entrance is repeated, framing a panel concealing tasteful artwork – demarcating the breathlessly spacious living area from the adjoining kitchen area. Unfolding these panels reveals a true chef’s dream. Sleek, dark finishes of stone and tile work to embolden the space, where a striking single kitchen island commands the room. Top of the line kitchen facilities is stylishly arranged, as space was conceived as a culinary laboratory where the resident chef in the family can turn all manner of gastronomic fantasy into appetizing reality. A spectacular sculptural staircase occupies the double volume space, connecting the different levels of FABER-HOUSE. Fabricated from folded black sheet metal, the staircase serves to segregate basement and ground floor common areas from the private quarters on the top floor. As guests are led to the cavernous basement entertainment area, leaving the upper floor strictly for family.

地下室
黑色的几何楼梯的脚落在FABER-HOUSE的地下室，那里的金属板、有纹理的混凝土、木条和粗糙的砾石为地下空间提供了许多特色。一个具有艺术禅意的岩石花园点缀着登陆区，从上面的楼梯间的错综复杂的窗格中透出的自然光使其更加突出。地下室配备了最先进的娱乐系统。地下巢穴包含一个专业级的酒窖，以及一个由300毫米厚的混凝土加固的3.6平方米的防空洞，散发着一种庄重的前卫的现代酷感。一个粉红色的霓虹灯标志装饰着深色的石墙，上面写着 “幸福是昂贵的”。

Basement
The foot of the black, geometric staircase lands in the FABER-HOUSE basement, where sheet metal, textured concrete, timber strips, and rough gravel provide much character to the subterranean space. An artful Zen-inspired rock garden punctuates the landing area, accentuated by the natural light that trickles in from the intricate fenestration that lines the stairwell above. The basement comes fully loaded with a state of the art entertainment system. Containing a professional-grade wine cellar, as well as a 3.6m2 bomb shelter reinforced by 300mm-thick concrete, the underground lair exudes a stately sense of edgy, contemporary cool. A neon pink sign adorns the dark stone central wall, with the sage inscription reminding all that, “Happiness is Expensive”.

上层
穿过上层，楼上的卧室用豪华和宽敞来形容再合适不过。两间初级套房都有一个连接浴室和一个步入式衣柜，而主卧室的设计是为了唤起一种开放的感觉。大面积的落地窗是主卧室的显著特征，提供了周边地区的全景。丰富的自然光和交叉通风充斥着整个空间，主浴室和步入式衣柜中精心布置的天窗，为主卧室空间注入了明亮、通风的感觉。

Upper Floor
Traversing to the upper floor, the upstairs bedrooms are best described as luxurious and spacious. Both junior suites have an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe, while the master bedroom was designed to evoke a sense of openness. Large floor-to-ceiling windows are a prominent feature of the master bedroom offering panoramic view surrounding the neighbourhood. Abundant natural light and cross-ventilation pervade the space, as carefully placed skylights in the master bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, inject the master bedroom spaces with a bright, airy feel.

主浴室的淋浴间和坐便器中的绿色花盆空间不仅提供了一个有机的触摸，而且还作为天然的空气井，缓解了内部循环。在FABER-HOUSE住宅中发现的最后一个，也许也是最引人注目的特征是包裹着第二层楼的穿孔金属网屏。铝制屏风使该物业具有更高的隐私感，使住宅与附近的房屋隔离。屏风上印有郁郁葱葱、绿树成荫的森林的清晰轮廓，不仅起到了遮挡太阳热量和强光的作用，而且还在一天中引入了诱人的光影交错。

Green planter spaces in the master bathroom’s shower and commode not only provide an organic touch, but also serve as natural air wells assuaging internal circulation. The final, and perhaps most striking, feature found at the FABER-HOUSE residence is the perforated metal mesh screen that encases the second storey. Lending the property an elevated sense of privacy, the aluminium screen obscuring the home from neighbouring houses nearby. Emblazoned with the unmistakable silhouette of a lush, tree-lined forest, the screen not only acts as a shield from the sun’s heat and glare, but also introduces a tantalizing interplay of light and shadow throughout the day.
