随着房地产市场始终处于压力之下，以及巴黎在本地和全球的吸引力不断增加，小型住房在法国首都正成为一个不可否认的现实。当人们需要在家学习和工作时，小公寓和相关的挑战在锁国的背景下变得更加重要。作为建筑师，我们的使命是以符合当前问题的高质量项目积极参与到城市变革中。
With a real estate market always under pressure and the growing attraction of Paris both locally and globally, small housing is becoming an undeniable reality in the French capital. Small apartments and related challenges have become all the more relevant in the context of lockdown when people need to study and work from home. As architects, our mission is to take an active part in the urban changes with high-quality projects in line with the current issues.

这个项目开始于一个相当令人惊讶的与新客户的公寓之旅。这位客户最近在巴黎南部买了一套旧公寓，他正在寻找一位建筑师来完成一个相当雄心勃勃的项目：将这套50平方米的单卧室公寓改造成一个五口之家（一对夫妇和三个孩子）的家。

This project began with a rather surprising apartment tour with a new client. This client had recently bought an old apartment in the south of Paris, and he was looking for an architect to work on a quite ambitious project: converting this 50 sqm 1-bedroom apartment into a home for a family of five (a couple and three children).

对于这个公寓，诊断阶段强调了几个要素。尽管面积不大，但这套公寓从前面到后面都是建筑，只有7米长。因此，每个空间都受益于最大的自然光。最后，三米高的天花板提供了很多垂直化的机会。该项目唯一的制约因素是横跨公寓宽度的承重墙。但这面墙已经有了三个开口，而且它们允许每一面之间有足够的流动。

For this apartment, the diagnostic phase highlighted several elements. Despite its small size, the apartment runs front to the back of the building and is only seven meters long. Therefore, every space benefit from maximum natural light. Finally, the three-meter high ceiling offers lots of opportunities for verticalization. The only constraint in the project is the load-bearing wall running across the width of the apartment. But this wall already has three openings, and they allow enough flow between each side.

基于这些元素，我们决定创建一个从建筑前部到后部的生活区，以利用早晨和晚上的光线。这个空间错落有致地创造出开放的子空间，一边是厨房和餐厅，另一边是客厅，有一个入口，被整合为这个生活区的一部分。

Based on these elements, we decided to create a living area running from front to back of the building to take advantage of the morning and evening light. This space is staggered to create open subspaces, a kitchen and dining room on one side, and a living room on the other, with an entrance, is integrated as part of this living area.

然后，我们选择为浴室和孩子们的卧室设计一个紧凑的垂直区域。在男孩的卧室里，有两个一米高的睡眠凹槽，一个位于浴室上方，另一个在大女儿的卧室下面。后面这个睡眠区可以通过客厅的楼梯到达。

Then, we chose to design a compact and vertical area for the bathroom and the children’s bedrooms. In the boys’ bedroom, there are two one-meter high sleeping alcoves, one is located above the bathroom, and the other one is under the elder daughter’s bedroom. This latter sleeping area is reachable via a staircase in the living room.

这个项目的另一个重要因素是时间。两个大孩子很快就会独立，要求设计一个能够适应和发展的公寓，以便在孩子们离开家后最终只剩下一个卧室。因此，我们将该项目分为三个阶段，并在平面图中加入了易于移动的隔断。到今天为止，该公寓可以容纳五个人。当两个最大的孩子离开时，父母的卧室墙将被拆除，以创造一个更大的客厅。最后，当最小的男孩离开时，剩下的两间卧室将连接起来，为父母创造一个更大的卧室。

Another important factor in this project was timing. The two eldest children were soon to be independent, and the request was to design an apartment that could adapt and evolve so that there would eventually be only one bedroom left after the children had left home. Therefore, we staged the project in three phases, and we included easily movable partitions in the floor plan. As of today, the apartment can accommodate five people. When the two eldest children leave, the parents’ bedroom wall will be removed to create a bigger living room. Finally, when the youngest boy leaves, the two remaining bedrooms will connect to make a larger bedroom for the parents.

材料的选择在这个项目中也发挥了重要作用。为了使公寓感觉更宽敞，我们为所有的门和窗使用了相同的材料；来自波兰的浅色松木，具有大方而相当统一的图案。地板也使用了非常浅的松木，以优化自然光。

The choice of materials also played an important role in this project. To make the apartment feel more spacious, we used the same material for all doors and windows; light-colored pine wood from Poland with a generous yet fairly uniform pattern. Very light pine wood was also used for the floor to optimize natural light.
