Kabelovna工作室位于捷克共和国布拉格市中心Holesovice区的一个前电线制造厂内。该设施建于1908年,是19世纪70年代以来布拉格工人聚居区的一部分。从那时起,该地区就围绕着这个前工厂而发展,同时保留了容纳它的城市街区内存在的工业氛围。工作室所在的大厅汇集了几个艺术实体:一个时装设计师、一个画家、一个丝网印刷生产企业,最后是录音室,从而创造了一个充满活力的创作环境。

Kabelovna Studios are located in a former electrical cable-making factory in the district of Holesovice, in the heart of Prague, Czech Republic. The facility, which was constructed in 1908, is a part of Prague’s workers’ colony since the 1870s. Since then, the area has developed around the former factory, while preserving the industrial atmosphere that exists within the city block that houses it. The hall in which the studios are set brings together several artistic entities: a fashion designer, a painter, a screen-printing production business, and lastly the recording studios, thus creating a vibrant creative environment.

这是一个关于后期制作和音乐录制环境的新概念:工作室将真实的工业美学与通过大型天窗和精心布置的玻璃隔断照射的自然光元素联系起来。所有这些,在这个前工厂的修复的砖墙不仅与现代录音室的声学要求完美配合,而且使空间更加完美。更不用说,这些墙壁还得到了吸音板的扩散特性和五米高的斜面天花板的补充。

This is a new concept for what the post-production and music recording environment could look like: studios that connect an authentic industrial aesthetic with natural elements of light that beam through large skylights and well-placed glass partitions. All while the restored brick walls of this former factory not only work perfectly with the acoustic requirements of a modern recording studio but completes the space beautifully. Not to mention, these walls are complemented by the diffusing properties of acoustic panels and by the five-meter tall, sloped ceilings.

被这个地方的强烈特征和天才的位置所吸引,建筑师们决定尽可能地突出它。一个新的米色无水石地板统一了空间,让墙壁和其他现有的纹理和元素成为焦点。黑色被用于新的现代插入物–如门或技术设备,但也作为旧家具作品和定制设计的灯具的背景。

Entranced by the location’s strong character and genius loci, the architects decided to highlight it as much as possible. A new beige anhydrite floor unifies the space and allows the walls and other existing textures and elements to become the focal point. Black was used for the new modern inserts – such as the doors or technical equipment, but also to act as a background for the older furniture pieces and the custom-designed light fixtures.

空间组织是简单而直观的。它从一个大的聚会室开始,或者说是工作室的一个客厅,位于大厅的最高处。它用一张接待桌、一个座位区和一条厨房线来欢迎客人,而录音室可以在部分玻璃门后进入。

The spatial organization is simple and intuitive. It starts with a large gathering room, or rather the studio’s a living room which is located in the highest area of the hall. It welcomes guests with a reception table, a seating area, and a kitchen line, while the recording studios are accessible behind partially glazed doors.

起居室 “由一盏Bomma Orbital吊灯主导,它漂浮在一张巨大的木桌之上,进一步增强了空间的高度感。在黑色的墙壁上自由建立的植物,将接待处与大厅的其他居民分开,并被安置在精心隐藏的花盆中。每个录音室都配备了自己的白色配音间。

The “living room” is dominated by a Bomma Orbital chandelier which floats above a massive wooden table which further enhances the sense of height in the space. The plants, which freely establish themselves over the black walls, separate the reception from the rest of the hall’s inhabitants and are housed in carefully concealed planters. Each recording studio is equipped with its own white voice-over booth.

翻新的家具和空间的整体构成创造了一个鼓舞人心而又舒适的氛围。座位是由回收的皮革座椅和70年代的黑色皮革扶手椅组合而成。以前在真正的剧院中使用的可折叠座椅被放置在工作室的 “客厅 “中,以鼓励更多的客人参与到不可避免的聚会中。由建筑师设计的霓虹灯,也是对工作室功能的一种点缀。大型温暖的声波的视觉效果,它主宰着录音室的天花板,并随着空间的移动而不断变化。这些精致的结构由分配给每个工作室的霓虹灯号码装饰,并邀请艺术家们探索房间。

The refurbished furniture and the overall composition of the space create an inspirational yet cozy atmosphere. The seating is a combination of recycled leather seats and black leather armchairs from the 1970s. The foldable seats, previously used in a real theater, are placed in the studio’s “living room” to encourage more guests to be a part of the inevitable parties. The neon lights, designed by the architects, are also a nod to the studio’s function. A visual of the large warm sound waves that dominate the ceilings of the recording studios and constantly change as they move through the space. These delicate structures are adorned by a neon number assigned to each studio and invite the artists to explore the room.
