我们的弹性房屋是由丈夫+妻子的建筑师+客户团队为他们自己的家庭设计的,面向北面,对面是埃诺格拉溪和阿什格罗夫的一条繁忙的行人自行车道。在郁郁葱葱的溪边树叶的映衬下,现有的战后房屋被重新改造,以鼓励通过可持续发展、制定机会主义的社会参与、尊重周围环境、抵御洪水和丛林火灾的威胁来实现复原力。

Our Resilient House, designed by the husband+wife Architect+Client team for their own family, faces north opposite Enoggera Creek and a busy pedestrian bike pathway in Ashgrove. With outlooks of lush creek foliage, the existing post-war house was reinvented to encourage resilience through sustainability, enacting opportunistic social engagement, respecting the surrounding context, and resisting flood and bushfire threats.

在2011年的洪水之后,2014年布里斯班城市规划加强了对面向小河的房产的防洪覆盖。我们的 “弹性之家 “是街道上第一个响应的改造项目,要求抬高最低可居住楼层。惯性工程公司对洪水风险进行了建模,并验证了坚固的地下阁楼设计,使洪水能够被扫除并安全地排走,而不会对邻近的场地造成负担。这个地下阁楼为玩耍提供了喘息的机会,并使居住者能够与公共自行车道上的过往游行队伍互动。

Following the 2011 floods, the Brisbane City Plan 2014 enhanced flood overlays to creek-facing properties. Our Resilient House was the first renovation in the street to respond, requiring elevated minimum habitable floor levels. Inertia Engineering modeled the flood risk and verified the robust undercroft design which enabled floodwater to sweep and safely drain away without burdening neighboring sites. This undercroft provides respite from the sun for play and enables occupants to interact with the passing parade on the public bikeway.

布里斯班城市规划确定了一个豁免机会,在底层包括一个安全的不受天气影响的25平方米的房间(低于BCC最低可居住层水平),用抗洪材料建造:混凝土地板,核心填充的砌块,以及水平铺设的FC板。在一个倾斜的场地上的设计反应是向上的,通过一个突出的中央楼梯连接:底层入口到街道;第一层共享的公共区域到后院;第二层撤退到私人区域的斑点树胶包覆的床箱,未经处理的设计,在槐树的树冠中老化和变灰。楼梯的位置决定了公共和私人项目,并使居住者在下楼时能看到世界。

Brisbane Town Planning identified an exemption opportunity to include a secure weather-tight 25sqm room on the ground floor (below the BCC Minimum Habitable Floor Level), constructed with flood resilient materials: concrete floor, core filled blockwork, and horizontally laid FC sheeting. The design response on a slopping site was to program upwards, via a prominent central stair connecting: the ground level entry to the street; the first level of shared common areas to the back yard; and the second level retreating to private zones in a spotted-gum-clad-bed-box, designed untreated to age and grey amongst the jacaranda canopies. Stair placement determines the public and private programs and presents the occupants to the world on the descent.

自然通风是通过滑动和双折的特色窗户和百叶窗来促进的,使气流最大化,从地面到第二层屋顶花园的堆积效应 – 用植物来减少热量,尽量减少反射,同时获得额外的空间用于食用花园。进一步的描述请参考可持续性声明。该地块包括一个高危防火区,靠近QFES确定的危险火灾风险。这些问题在设计选址、形式、材料选择中得到了解决,并得到了广泛的Crimsafe、水沟保护、电池电源备份以及带有水箱和水池水源的泵的支持,并得到了特定场地的丛林火灾管理报告(Eldon Bottcher建筑师)。

Natural ventilation is promoted through sliding and bi-fold feature windows and louvers maximizing the airflow, with stack effect from the ground through to the second level roof garden – used to reduce heat using plants, minimize reflectivity, while gaining additional space for edible gardens. Refer to Sustainability Statement for further description. The site includes a high-hazard fire area overlay and is proximal to QFES identified dangerous fire risks. These issues are addressed in design siting, form, material selection and supported by extensive Crimsafe, gutter guard, battery power backup, and pumps with tank and pool water sources, informed by a site-specific Bushfire Management Report (Eldon Bottcher Architect).

通过减少建筑设计费和直接贡献,包括采购配件、直接聘用专业承包商和建造细木工制品,实现了价值。当地承包商提供的早期价值管理服务提高了设计和预算效率。基于太阳能、电池和雨水收集,每年可节约3400美元。环境是一个重要的考虑因素,同时也要通过适当的展示活动或静修,通过社会联系来回馈街道。阿什格罗夫的建筑风格是独特而有价值的。这些特点影响了关键的建筑角度、材料选择和形式,通过逐步的现代解释。

Value was achieved through reduced architectural design fees and direct contribution including sourcing fittings, directly engaging specialist contractors, and building of joinery elements. Early value-management services by local contractors resulted in design and budget efficiencies. Annual savings identified at $3,400 p.a. based on solar, battery, and rainwater harvest. The context was an important consideration, along with giving back to the street through connections socially via displayed activities or retreats as appropriate. Ashgrove’s architectural vernacular is distinctive and valued. These character features influenced key building angles, materials selection, and form through progressive modern interpretation.

科维德的封锁是最终的考验。我们的弹性之家鼓励公共领域的互动,与社区的视觉连接,有助于减少孤立感。空间已经可以适应WFH、家庭教育和令人愉快的家庭聚会。成功地改造我们的战后房屋以适应现代生活,通过胜利提供了复原力。

Covid lockdowns have been the ultimate test. Our Resilient House encourages public realm interaction with a visual connection to the community, aiding in feeling less isolated. Spaces have been adaptable for WFH, homeschooling, and delightful in-home gatherings. Successful adaptation of our post-war house for a modern living has provided resilience through triumph.
