5-9 Roslyn Street Potts Point是一个三角形的场地,面积不到200平方米。圆形的一端直接看向一个小的公共空间。场地的形状夸大了视角,微小的占地面积放大了人们对高度的感知。 

我们希望建筑能够轻松地坐在它的位置上,认识到其邻居的建筑特征。

5-9 Roslyn Street Potts Point is a triangular shaped site, less than 200m2 in size. The rounded end looks directly onto a small public space. The shape of the site exaggerates perspective, the tiny footprint amplifies the perception of height. 

We wanted the building to sit easily in its place, to recognize the architectural traits of its neighbors.

我们还希望对该地区典型的厚实的砖石墙、细小的窗户和悬垂的檐口采取新的看法。

檐口被夸张地悬在街道上,暗示着一个房间。精致的钢衬里窗户略微偏移,随意地错位。遮阳篷分裂开来,标志着街道上的各个入口。 

在街上,它似乎是附近建筑的一个短暂版本,随着墙体的后退,开口的节奏被保持。

We also wanted to take a new view of the thick masonry walls, small detailed windows and overhanging cornices typical of the area.

The cornice is exaggerated to overhang the street, to suggest a room. The fine steel lined windows are slightly offset and casually misaligned. The awning splits to mark individual entry points on the street. 

On the street, it seems an ephemeral version of the neighborhood buildings, the rhythm held by the openings as the wall recedes.

然后,在转角处,建筑转变为强烈的表面,向两个方向弯曲,成为一个成型的光的半岛。 

裂纹瓷砖的表面,是光泽和哑光、白色和饼干的混合物,反射和折射周围的环境。 

一个由法桐树和季节性植物组成的异国情调的屋顶花园,通过倒扣的开口被框在空中。

Then, at the corner the building shifts to being strongly surfaced, curving in two directions, becoming a peninsular of moulded light. 

The surface of crackled tiles, a mixture of gloss and matt, white and biscuit, reflect and refract the surroundings. 

An exotic roof top garden of frangipani trees and seasonal plantings is framed in the sky through buckled openings.
