Qub Rooms是一家拥有10间客房的酒店,位于印度尼西亚三宝垄中心的密集商业区。该建筑曾经是一个平凡的3层楼的店面,现在被改造成一个工业化但别致的结构,其独特的外墙由多个大小不一的开口组成,用黑色的钢筋填充,在90年代的白色瓷砖和蓝色玻璃外墙中形成一个意想不到的景象。与城市的结构相适应,不同大小的四边形开口衔接在外墙上,旨在模糊外墙后面的实际楼层的视觉理解,从而提高建筑的规模。

Qub Rooms is a 10-room hotel located in a dense commercial strip in the center of Semarang, Indonesia. Once a mundane 3-story shophouse, the building was transformed into an industrial yet chic structure with a unique facade made out of multiple sized openings, cladded with black steel, creating an unexpected sight among the 90’s white ceramic tiles and blue glass facades. Fitting within the urban fabric of the city, the qub(ic) shaped openings articulated across the facade in varied sizes are meant to blur the visual understanding of the real floor levels behind the facade thus heightening the scale of the building.

现有的结构被尽可能地重新利用,以便在适应新功能的同时可持续地重新使用该建筑。旧的干墙天花板、墙壁和现有的楼梯都被从建筑中剥离出来,以使酒店的可用空间最大化。酒店的室内设计是一种单调的新元素的游戏,如房间的白色弧形外墙和粗糙的黑色砖墙作为每个酒店房间的背景。它们与裸露的混凝土天花板的粗糙感并列,天花板上的电线管网络俏皮地贯穿了酒店的房间和走廊。

The existing structures were reutilized as much as possible to sustainably reuse the building while adapting it to a new function. The old drywall ceilings, walls, and existing staircases were all stripped off from the building to maximize the usable space for the hotel. The interior design of the hotel is a play of monotone new elements such as curved white exterior walls of the rooms and rough black brick walls as the backdrop of each hotel room. They are juxtaposed with the rawness of exposed concrete ceiling deck that is adorned with a network of electrical conduits playfully running across the rooms and corridors of the hotel.

大堂、酒店房间和走廊的设计中加入了线条流畅的钢条照明,以创造酒店的精致感和复杂性。楼梯完全由穿孔的钢板制成,所以它允许空气通过空隙。上下楼梯的运动可以通过其透明度看到,这进一步使公共空间更加活跃和动态。酒店的走廊也被允许呼吸,这是因为在酒店的前部和后部使用了百叶窗,从而使整个建筑的交叉通风成为可能。

Sleek lines of steel bar lighting were added in the design of the lobby, the hotel rooms, and the corridor to create a sense of finesse and sophistication of the hotel. The stairs were fully made out of perforated steel plates so it allows air to go through the void. Movement up and down the stairs can be seen through its transparency which further makes the public space more active and dynamic. The corridors of the hotel are also allowed to breathe, which is made possible by the use of louver windows at the front and back of the hotel thus allowing cross ventilation throughout the building.

在后面的百叶窗后面,种植了茂密的热带绿色植物,以减少城市中空气和噪音污染的影响,并在创造新鲜空气进入酒店的同时减少热增益。Qub Rooms挑战了三宝垄市许多角落里常见的3层楼店面的类型。在典型的宽度和高度限制下,功能的转变能够利用特定的材料和建筑形式形成一个更有趣的商业立面衔接,同时丰富城市体验。

Behind the louver windows at the back, lust tropical greeneries are planted to reduce the effect of air and noise pollution in the city as well as to reduce heat gain while creating fresh air into the hotel. Qub Rooms challenges the typology of common 3-story shophouses that are found in many corners in the city of Semarang. Within the typical width and height constraint, a transformation of function is able to form a much more interesting articulation of commercial facade utilizing specific material and architectural form while enriching the urban experience.
