这个项目涉及到对墨尔本市内郊区克利夫顿山的一个现有遗产名录上的房屋进行重大改建和增建。Northside的房子占据了一个突出的角落,为一个年轻的四口之家提供了一个探索对联邦时代的完整住宅进行敏感改建和增建的机会。

This project involved substantial alterations and additions to an existing heritage-listed home in the inner-city Melbourne suburb of Clifton Hill. Occupying a prominent corner site, Northside house provided an opportunity to explore sensitive alterations and additions to an intact Federation-era home for a young family of four.

作为一个热衷于娱乐的人,他们的要求是在高度的隐私和避难所之间取得平衡,同时提供完全开放的能力,热情地欢迎家人、朋友和当地人的到来。额外的建筑形式遵循与现有房屋突出的坡屋顶形式类似的体量,以保护和尊重主体财产及其完整邻居的遗产语言。

As avid entertainers, the brief sort to balance a high degree of privacy and refuge while providing the ability to completely open up, warmly welcoming family, friends, and locals dropping by. The additional built forms follow a similar volume as the existing houses’ prominent pitched roof form, to preserve and respect the heritage language of the subject property and its intact neighbors.

建筑物的转角位置使我们研究了现有的高度可见的屋顶坡度,以及它如何为我们的新建筑提供信息。现有房屋的面压红砖的状况很好,我们希望将其与我们的扩建部分结合起来。选择赤土瓦似乎代表了我们对新形式的想法,即舒适地坐在这个完整的遗产结构旁边,它既是一种熟悉的材料,又是一种相当新的和意想不到的东西。

The corner siting of the building led us to examine the highly visible existing roof pitch and how this might inform our new addition/s. The face-pressed red brickwork of the existing house was in excellent condition, and we wanted to tie this in with our extension. The choice of terracotta shingles seemed to represent our ideas for a new form sitting comfortably next to this intact heritage fabric and is both a familiar material and something quite new and unexpected.

在北面的外墙上有一个玻璃窗,形成了一个通往厨房的窗口,并沿着屋顶线,通过楼梯所在的双层空间将光线带入新建筑的中心。这个 “拼接 “窗口划分了原有的建筑结构和我们的新增建部分,并允许光影游戏在一天中改变地面和一楼的建筑内部空间。

A glazed break running both up the Northern external wall, forming a window to the kitchen, and along the roof line, bring light deep into the heart of the new addition through a double-height space in which the staircase is located. This ‘splice’ window demarcates the original building fabric and our new addition and allows for light and shadow play to alter the interior spaces of the building throughout the day at both ground and first floor levels.

我们的客户对艺术的热情,以及不断增长的绘画和雕塑收藏,使得他们需要有广泛和不间断的墙面空间来展示他们的收藏。我们使用了具有醒目色调和纹理的天然石板,将其整合为艺术品和雕塑本身。

Our client’s passion for art with an ever-growing collection of paintings and sculptures saw the need for extensive and uninterrupted wall space to exhibit their collection. Natural stone slabs with striking tones and texture were used, integrated to appear as pieces of artwork and sculpture themselves.
