WOWOWA PONY是对一栋1960年代的杏色砖房进行了灵活的改造和适度的增建。我们的客户带着开放的心态来找我们，只是希望有一个适合这所房子的装修–我们努力靠拢，对话很快变成了关于如何通过设计使他们的个人审美变得生动。除了提供急需的额外空间外，我们还对现有的内部空间进行了广泛的重新配置。厨房和原来的部分起居室被重新定位为一个开放式的厨房、餐厅、中央浴室和步入式茶水间，两个儿童房被挤进了现有的小房间。

WOWOWA PONY is an agile alteration and modest addition to a 1960’s apricot brick home. Our Clients came to us with open minds just wanting a renovation that suited the house – we leaned in hard, and the conversation quickly become about how their personal aesthetic could be brought alive through the design. As well as providing much-needed additional space, there was an extensive reconfiguration of the existing internal spaces. The kitchen and part of the original living room were reorientated into an open plan kitchen, dining, central bathroom, and walk-in pantry and two of the children’s rooms were squeezed into the existing rumpus.

厨房和起居室是这个家真正的核心，它延伸到前翼和后翼，并连接到花园。从中央客厅，你可以看到街道和游泳池的景色。新的儿童翼为每个孩子提供了平等的便利，每个房间都有相同的储藏室和学习区的分配，通过窗户可以俯瞰房子一侧的带状花园。当需要休息的时候，或需要安静的 “在家工作 “的时候，成人区可以与房子的其他部分关闭。每个轴线都有能力从下一个轴线上关闭，允许将嘈杂的生活空间与安静的 “成人 “区域和儿童学习区分开。

The kitchen and living area are truly the heart of the home, spilling out into both the front and the rear wings and connecting out into the garden. From the central living, you get views of both the street and the pool. The new children’s wing provides an equal amenity to each child, each room has the same allocation of both storage and study area, with windows overlooking the strip garden to the side of the house. The adult’s area can be closed off from the rest of the house, when moments of respite, or quiet ‘working from home time’ is required. Each axis has the capacity to be closed from the next, allowing a separation of the noisy living spaces from quiet ‘adult’ areas and children’s study zones.

WOWOWA PONY是我们做过的最辛苦的建筑作品。它是我们的客户给我们、我们给客户的一封相互的情书。一个真正的合作项目。设计的灵感主要来自于我们充满活力的客户和他们充满活力的六口之家。通过形式、材料和颜色反映他们的个人审美，室内是一个小的喜悦时刻的累积，让一个家庭找到一个单独或一起的安静时刻。

WOWOWA PONY is the hardest working piece of architecture we have done. It is a mutual love letter from our Clients to us and us to our Clients. A true collab. The design was heavily inspired by our vibrant clients and their energetic family of six. Reflecting their personal aesthetic through form, materiality, and colour, the interiors are an accretion of small moments of delight that allow a family to find a quiet moment alone or come together.

以766平方米为中心，计划沿双轴布置–这是战后突出的设计驱动力，以增加与花园的联系–创造一个前部、后部和中央庭院。我们的设计通过一个夹层柱廊夸大了现有的轴向规划。由于靠近海滩，结构设计、包层和屋顶形式的施工方法与船的构造并无不同，有龙骨、船头和船尾。龙骨 “沿着柱廊的长度表现出来，就像鲸鱼的腹部，通过细节设计体现航海的意义；黄铜配件、舷窗以及天花板和地板上的木质装饰板。

Centered on 766m2, the plan was arranged along a double-axis – a prominent post-war design driver to increase connection to the garden – creating a front, back and central courtyard. Our design exaggerated the existing axial plan through a clip-on colonnade. Being near the beach the structural design, cladding and construction methodology for the roof form, was not dissimilar to the construction of a boat, with keel, bow and stern. The ‘keel’ is expressed down the length of the colonnade, like the belly of a whale, with nautical references carried through detailing; brass fittings, porthole windows and timber decking to both ceiling and floor.

厨房里有香蕉黄色的长凳和所有孩子的座位，感觉很宽敞。以甜点为灵感的调色板吸引了客户的中世纪家具作品，木材种类的混合与折衷的艺术和物品收藏相呼应。俏皮的色彩组合被用于 “湿润区域”，而主卧室则采用平静的色调和材料，提供了一个喘息的时刻。

The kitchen feels generous with the banana-yellow bench space and seating for all kids. The dessert-inspired colour palette draws in the client’s mid-century furniture pieces and the mix of timber species echoes the eclectic art and object collection. Playful colour combinations were used in the ‘wet areas’, whilst the main bedroom offers a moment of respite incorporating calm tones and materials.

虽然WOWOWA PONY的设计很有冲击力，其光鲜的装饰和细节给整个住宅带来了愉悦的时刻，但该项目的真正智慧在于多学科设计领域的快乐结合；室内设计、建筑和景观建筑，最终形成了空间质量和夹式柱廊的材料。勤劳的柱廊是这个设计的创新之处。它不仅提供了与户外、两个浴室和四个卧室的连接，而且还增加了住宅的便利性，没有一大片额外的空间。这是一张日间床，一个书架，两个为每个孩子提供座位的休息空间和一个晾衣室，分散在整个房间里，依偎在起伏的形式和柔软的结构柱中。

Though WOWOWA PONY packs a punch, with glorious finishes and details that bring moments of delight throughout the home, the real smarts of the project reside in the joyous union of multi-disciplinary design areas; interior design, architecture and landscape architecture, that culminate in spatial qualities and materiality of the clip-on colonnade. The hardworking colonnade is the innovation in this design. Not only does it provide a connection to the outdoors, two bathrooms and four bedrooms, but it also increases the amenity of the home, without an expanse of additional space. It’s a daybed, a bookshelf, two break out spaces that provide seating for each of the children and a clothes drying room, dispersed throughout and nestled within the undulating form and soft, structural columns.

“我们六个人有了共同呼吸的空间，当我们需要分开时，也可以作为个人来呼吸。每个人的生活都更容易一些，使我们能够更多的放松和享受在一起的时间。走廊和光线使我们很容易到外面去或感觉到外面的情况，有了厨房/家庭室，我们就有了为我们和我们孩子的朋友所希望的温馨的房子。所有的东西终于有了自己的位置–衣服、洗衣物、玩具、书籍、游戏、食物……一些小的乐趣，比如为四个书包和一个熨衣板提供的专用空间。它的颜色、细节和我们生活中的参考资料，让我们每天都在微笑”。客户

“The six of us have room to breathe together and as individuals when we need to be separate. Everyone’s lives are a little easier, allowing us to relax and enjoy time together more. The hallway and light makes being or feeling outside easy and with the kitchen/family room we have the welcoming house we wanted for our and our children’s friends. Everything finally has its place – clothes, washing, toys, books, games, food…small pleasures such as dedicated space for four school bags and an ironing board. It makes us smile everyday through its colours, details and references from throughout our lives.” CLIENT
