Flinders House坐落在Mornington半岛的一个成熟的花园内,在现代主义传统中使用当代材料和执行。原来的建筑是Glenvill Home,建于20世纪80年代末,并于2002年进行了首次装修。客户(其中一位是退休的建筑师)渴望在他们的度假屋中度过更多的时间,并有能力接待朋友和家人。作为回头客,他们再次与建筑商Fido项目合作,开始了再次翻新弗林德斯之家的高度合作工作。

Nestled within an established garden on the Mornington Peninsula, Flinders House works within the Modernist tradition using contemporary materials and execution. The original building was a Glenvill Home, built in the late 1980s, and was first renovated in 2002. The clients (one a retired architect) were eager to spend more time in their holiday home, with the capacity to host friends and family. As return clients, working again with builders Fido Project, the team embarked on the highly collaborative work of renovating Flinders House once more.

与该地区的其他战后房屋相呼应,Foomann受到了当地现代主义同行的启发。改造的目的是简单和精致,采用经过深思熟虑的材料和严格的细节。胶合板覆盖的车库和房子的东面部分被简单地翻新了。现有建筑和新建建筑都接受了与车库相同的黑色外部等级胶合板处理。这种材料的一致性统一了建筑的不同年代,而新的亭台楼阁般的家庭房则以现代主义的轮廓实现了。这个新空间包括两间卧室,加上厨房和生活区。亭子的设计与建筑被拆除部分的占地面积相似,以保持和利用现有的平台和成熟的花园。

Resonating with the other post-war houses in the area, Foomann was inspired by local Modernist counterparts. The renovation aims for simplicity and refinement, with considered materials and exacting details. The ply-clad garage and the east portion of the house were lightly refurbished. With both the existing building and the new build receive the same black exterior grade plywood treatment as the garage. The consistency of this material unifies the different eras of the building, while the new pavilion-like family room has been realized with a Modernist silhouette. This new space comprises two bedrooms, plus kitchen and living areas. The pavilion was designed on a similar footprint to the demolished portion of the building, to maintain and harness the existing deck and mature garden.

在内部,弗林德斯之家充满了光亮和开放,有序而宁静。木梁沿着起居区的天花板,在屋檐下继续向外延伸。虽然横梁是现代主义风格的产物,但它们的材料和执行都是现代的。这些结构性胶合木构件的特点是为隐蔽的照明提供了退路,并为下水管道的落下提供了整合的开口。天花板是用精确的配合和胶合板覆盖完成的。熏黑和透明胶合板的细节在整个住宅中反复出现,说明了稳定的一致性和对少数优质材料选择的信任。

Inside, Flinders House is light-filled and open, orderly, and peaceful. Timber beams run along the ceiling of the living area, continuing externally beneath the eaves. While the beams contribute to a Modernist vernacular, their material, and execution are contemporary. These structural glulam members feature rebates for concealed lighting and integrate openings for downpipes to drop through. The ceiling is completed with precise fit, and plywood cladding. Both blackened and clear finish ply details recur throughout the home speaking to a steady consistency and trust in a few, quality, material choices.

全高的固定玻璃窗在视觉上将亭子与景观连接起来。从这个角度来看,居住者可以充分欣赏到花园;美丽的构成和耐心的种植。建筑中涉及到的严格而苛刻的细节,由能够胜任这项工作的建筑商精心打造,为这个最初呈现为简单的住宅提供了深度。这些连接点的实现很复杂,但有助于创造一个让人感到轻松、踏实和自在的家。

Full-height fixed glazing visually connects the pavilion to the landscape. It is from this vantage that occupants fully appreciate the garden; beautifully composed and patiently grown. The fastidious and demanding detail involved in the building, crafted with care by builders up to the task, provides depth to a home that initially presents as simple. The junctions were complex to achieve but help to create a home intended to feel relaxed, grounded, and at ease.
