这个建筑的一切都与规模有关。
它的规模不大,但却有着强烈的个性,就像马戏团一样,每一个行为都和其他行为一样重要,没有等级之分,只有齐心协力,才能创造出独一无二的东西。

Everything in this building is about scale.
It is small but with a strong personality, like in a circus; every act is as important as the other, no hierarchies, and only working all together do they create something unique.

规模由于场地的尺寸。它是由五栋现存的建筑组成的,这些建筑加起来只有800平方米,而且这些建筑的时期和形状都不一样。规模是由于这个地方的历史量。米开朗基罗-安东尼奥尼的电影《炸裂》就是在这里拍摄的。它是在《Vogue》摄影师John Cowan的工作室里拍摄的,演员David Hemmings就在这里工作,在电影里你还能认出这些空间。几年后,理查德-罗杰斯(Richard Rogers)在蓬皮杜中心的竞争中获胜后,在这里设立了他的工作室,这是他的第一个个人工作室。

Scale due to the dimensions of the site. It is made up of five existing buildings which all together are only 800 sqm, and all of them different in periods and shapes. Scale due to the amount of history in the place. Blow Up, Michelangelo Antonioni’s movie, was filmed here. It was filmed in the studio of Vogue photographer John Cowan, and the actor David Hemmings was working in the spaces which you can still recognise in the movie. A few years after that, Richard Rogers had his studio here, his very first personal studio, after winning the competition for the Pompidou Centre.

楼梯、天窗、一座桥和理查德-罗杰斯亲手种在院子里的葡萄树,都是他的设计添加在建筑历史上的片段,我们将其作为现代考古学的瑰宝保留下来。

Stairs, skylights, a bridge and a vine that Richard Rogers himself planted in the courtyard are bits of his design added to the history of the buildings that we kept as a treasure of modern archaeology.

剩下的事情就很简单了。我们需要扩大现有的夹层,我们又开了一些天窗,给人们和18棵真正的树提供更多的自然光,现在给这里增加了更多的自然历史。我们还需要找到一种方法来覆盖庭院的大部分区域,同时保持藤蔓的活力。我们使用了一个透明的双层屋顶,并与环保工程师Adam Ritchie合作,用肥皂泡填充层与层之间的空隙,以达到隔热的目的。填充需要20分钟,效果可以持续一整天。

The rest was easy. We needed to expand the existing mezzanine and we opened some more skylights to give more natural light to the people and to the 18 real trees that are now adding more natural history to the place. We also needed to find a way to cover a large part of the courtyard, whilst keeping the vine alive. We used a clear double layer roof, and to insulate it we worked with environmental engineer Adam Ritchie, filling the gap between the layers with soap bubbles. It takes 20 minutes to fill and the effect can last a whole day.

理查德-罗杰斯的藤蔓还是很有生命力的,除了气泡之外,还覆盖了整个屋顶。

Richard Rogers’ vine is still very much alive and covering the whole roof in addition to the bubbles.
