一个一室一厅的房子,通过一个露台与现有的多代家庭住宅相连。在设计上为无障碍生活的可能性做了准备,它是一个让客户变老的地方,靠近他的亲人。该建筑位于一座山上。建筑物与地面接触的部分由混凝土组成,不与地面接触的部分则由用于浇筑混凝土的未经改造的再利用的木质模板组成。

A one-bedroom house, connected through a terrace, to an existing multi-generational family home. With design provision made for the eventuality of barrier-free living, it is a place for the client to grow old, close to his loved ones. The building is situated on a hill. The parts of the building in contact with the ground comprise concrete, the parts that are not, comprise the unaltered repurposed timber formwork panels, that were used to cast the concrete.

木质模板给裸露的混凝土带来了质感,而裸露的混凝土又给木质模板带来了光泽。模板塑造了暴露的混凝土空间和用途,反之亦然。这种相互关系为建筑提供了表达方式。

The timber formwork gives texture to the exposed concrete, and the exposed concrete gives patina to the timber formwork. The formwork panels shape the exposed concrete spaces and use, and the other way around. This interrelationship gives expression to the building.

例如,带有天窗的弧形木制壁龛,是重新利用用于铸造弧形混凝土楼梯间的模板的表现。楼梯井是弯曲的,以允许楼梯升降机的出现,并有一个天窗,自然地将光线引入空间的地下部分。另一个方面,主入口上方的混凝土天棚,是将楼梯的木质平台作为模板重新利用的表现。

For example, the curved timber niche, with skylight, is the expression of repurposing the formwork used to cast the curved concrete stairwell. The stairwell is curved to allow for the eventuality of a stairlift and has a skylight to naturally bring in light to the underground section of the space. The other way around, the concrete canopy above the main entrance, is the expression of repurposing the staircase’s timber landing as formwork.

此外,在混凝土内墙的一个门洞中,用一个模板板填充,是施工过程的表现。承包商意识到,模板面板的厚度与混凝土内墙的厚度相似。因此,承包商没有用木板来浇筑门洞,而是将模板切割成一定高度,然后用作浇筑门洞的填充物。这改变了重新利用模板的设计和策略,通过留下一个开口来表达。

Furthermore, a door opening in one of the concrete interior walls, which is filled in with a formwork panel, is the expression of the construction process. The contractor realized, that the thickness of a formwork panel, was similar to that of the concrete interior walls. So, instead of boarding off the openings for casting, the contractor cut the formwork panels in height, to then use as infill in casting the door openings. This altered the design and strategy of where to repurpose the formwork panels, which found expression by leaving one opening filled in.

搬进去后,客户想要一个额外的壁橱,他复制了木质模板的语言,自己建造了它。

这座建筑体现了它是如何形成的,它在其美学中揭示了自己的历史。

After moving in, the client wanted an extra closet, he copied the language of the timber formwork to build It himself.

The building is the embodiment of how it came to be, it reveals in its aesthetic its own history.
