布鲁克林花园工作室是一个自建的休闲场所,位于纽约布鲁克林Boerum Hill镇屋的花园中。该项目是一个修修补补的建筑师对城市的逃避,包括建筑行为和居住时间。这个花园工作室在纽约市的巨大景观中提供了一个看似独立的孤独空间。它是一个享受书本或午后小憩的完美地点。
The Brooklyn Garden Studio is a self-built retreat located in the garden of a Boerum Hill Townhouse in Brooklyn, New York. The project is a tinkering architect’s escape from the city, both the act of building and the time spent inhabiting. The garden studio provides a seemingly detached space of solitude within the immense landscape of New York City. It is a perfect spot for enjoying a book or an afternoon nap.


该工作室是一个适度的实验空间。 内部尺寸为5英尺宽,11英尺深。 它是由简陋的材料建造的:标准的木质框架和护墙板,有机玻璃窗和天窗,回收的雪松护墙板和回收的栅栏栅栏修剪成的内部包边。 它的形式简单明了,其形状是为了遮挡水,并在保持入口处的净空的同时,保持整体高度的降低。 开口的位置很有策略,只露出地面和花园、天空和树木的景色。 所有对城市环境的参考都被移除。 双层水平板条允许从坐姿上看出去,但限制了楼上邻居的窥视。 在晚上,工作室从天窗和板条墙中发光,照亮了后院和周围的树木。
The studio is a modest space of experimentation. The interior dimensions measure five feet wide by eleven feet deep. It is constructed of humble materials: standard wood framing and sheathing, plexi-glass windows and skylight, salvaged cedar siding and salvaged fence pickets trimmed to clad the interior. The form is simple and clean, shaped to shed water and keep the overall height low while maintaining headroom at the entry. Openings are strategically located to reveal only views to the ground and garden, sky and trees. All references to the urban surroundings are removed. A double layer of horizontal slats allow low views out from a seated position, yet restrict the prying eyes of neighbors from floors above. In the evening, the studio glows from the skylight and slatted wall, illuminating the back yard and surrounding trees.



这个项目是在三个月的晚上和周末的空闲时间里建造的。建造它的目的是测试细节和探索有限空间的极限,同时也是为了构建自己的设计的治疗过程。自项目完成以来,朋友们最关心的问题是:"你打算在那里做什么?"。最后,与其说是你在那里做什么,不如说是它对你做什么。在纽约市的疯狂中居住在一个空间里,有一些特别的东西,让你感觉到不在这里。
The project was constructed during the spare hours of nights and weekends over a three month period. It was built with the intention to test details and explore the limits of a confined space, but also for the therapeutic process of constructing one’s own design. The most popular question among friends since the project’s completion has been "what are you going to do out there?!" In the end, it is less about what you do out there and more about what it does to you. There is something special about inhabiting a space within the craziness of New York City that makes you feel elsewhere.
