“涂鸦之家 “的设计理念是将一个现有的服装仓库改造成一个住宅，既是一个充满亲密时刻的避难所，又是一系列具有戏剧感和与户外联系的空间。该项目在现场开始时很不稳定，在施工不久后，原建筑商就破产了。幸运的是，Durack建筑事务所与一位受人尊敬的建筑商共用一个办公室，他能够接管工程，使项目重新焕发生机。

Graffiti House is the amalgamation of a brief which sought to convert an existing clothing warehouse into a home that was both a refuge punctuated with moments of intimacy while also a series of spaces with a sense of drama and connection with the outdoors. The project had a shaky start on-site and not long into the construction the original builder became insolvent. Fortunately, Durack Architects shares an office with a respected builder who was able to take over the works and bring the project back to life.

将该建筑改造成一个新的3个卧室的住宅是一个刻意的尝试，将空间质量放在优先于建筑面积的位置。客户是一对没有孩子的夫妇，他们希望以悉尼的适度预算，充分利用大的开放空间。客户对功利性的仓库建筑情有独钟，并坚决要求在改造中不丢失原有空间的感觉。

The conversion of the building into a new 3 bedroom home was a deliberate attempt to prioritize spatial quality over floor space. The clients were a couple with no children and a modest brief looking to make the most of the large open spaces on a modest Sydney budget. The client had a love of utilitarian warehouse buildings and was adamant that the feel of the original space was not lost through the renovation.

虽然原来的结构有一个独特的戏剧性的存在，但它也有可能在空间上无定形，没有定义。为了解决这个问题，现有的体积被最大化，并通过一个U型夹层来定义，该夹层包含了计划，并部分悬挂在现有的钢制屋顶结构上。在创造一个具有真正意义上的连接性的住宅的同时，这个内省的规划也鼓励了围绕一个受保护的高架庭院的亲密空间。

While the original structure had a singularly dramatic presence it also was at risk of being spatially amorphous and without definition. To address this the existing volumes were maximized and defined by a u-shaped mezzanine which contains the plan and is in part suspended from the existing steel roof structure. While creating a home with a real sense of connectedness this introspective plan has also encouraged intimate spaces wrapped around a protected and elevated courtyard.

虽然规划是建筑适应性再利用的一个组成部分，但重要的是，它必须与适当的结构、细节和材料相配合。我们采用了尖锐、功利的工业美学，使用了裸露的钢结构和木托梁，以及工厂中通常用作地板的工业格栅和栏杆。这一点被延续到了更精细的细节上，如隆起的黄铜水龙头配件和细木家具把手。

While the planning was an integral component of the adaptive re-use of the building it was important that it be complemented with appropriate structure, detailing, and materials. A sharp, utilitarian industrial aesthetic was employed with exposed steelwork and timber joists along with industrial grating for screens and balustrades typically used as flooring in factories. This was continued into the finer detail with rumbled brass tap fittings and joinery handles.

通过对立面的分解和开放，在住宅和公园之间建立了一种关系，即通过升高的景观庭院。拆除这部分立面后，内部双层高的空隙中充斥着斑驳的光线，同时也让人们从公园里看到了这个新家的过滤效果。为了向圣彼得斯的多元化和质感的社区致敬，这个俯瞰辛普森公园的广阔外墙经历了一次整容，其中有一块委托的街头艺术，由一个画廊客户和当地艺术家Alex Lehours合作完成。

A relationship has been created between the home and the park through the breaking down and opening up of the facade through the raised landscaped courtyard. The removal of this section of the elevation floods the interior double-height voids with a dappled light while also offering from the park a filtered glimpse into this new home. Paying homage to the diverse and textured community of St Peters this extensive facade over-looking Simpson Park has undergone a facelift with a piece of a commissioned street art collaboration between a gallerist client and local artist Alex Lehours.
