该项目涉及将一个破旧的工业仓库改造成一个年轻的城市专业人士的房子。该项目位于伦敦哈克尼区,原始材料的调色板创造了一种与原始建筑相协调的工业美学。

The project involves the conversion a dilapidated industrial warehouse into a house for a young city professional. Located in the London Borough of Hackney, the palette of raw materials creates an industrial aesthetic in tune with the original building.

在改造空间的过程中,Matthew Giles建筑事务所创造了一个新的内部布局,改善了不同空间之间的联系。我们建议在前部(建于2008年)和建筑的主体之间建立一个物理连接。它的形状是一个倾斜的三层现浇混凝土墙。

In transforming the space, Matthew Giles Architects created a new internal layout that improved the connections between the disparate spaces. We proposed a physical connection between the front section (built in 2008) and the main body of the building. This took the shape of an angled three-storey cast in-situ concrete wall.


混凝土墙在水平和垂直方向上为建筑提供了一个物理和视觉上的联系。从在平面图上画一条对角线开始,混凝土墙已经成为结构和视觉元素,并且是该方案的驱动力。

The concrete wall provides a physical and visual link through the building both horizontally and vertically. From drawing a diagonal line on a floor plan, the concrete wall has become both a structural and visual element and is the driving force of the scheme.

大型固定和滑动面板和窗户形式的新玻璃已被引入,进一步改善了自然光线和视野。地面层被降低并恢复为裸露的混凝土板,一直延伸到前院和后花园。原有的砖砌结构被保留下来,在很大程度上仍然可见。

New glazing in the form of large fixed and sliding panels and windows has been introduced, further improving natural light and views. The ground floor was lowered and reinstated as an exposed concrete slab continuing outside to the front courtyard and rear garden. The original brickwork was retained, which remains largely visible throughout.

建筑是有触感的,空间和流通的实际安排创造了一个动态的设计,每一个角落都有视觉上的兴趣。主要的生活空间被从计划的两边涌入的自然日光照亮,并由混凝土衬托。在其他地方,白面砖和再生木材进一步丰富了室内空间。

The building is tactile and the practical arrangement of space and circulation has created a dynamic design with visual interest at every turn. The main living space is brightly lit by natural daylight pouring in from both sides of the plan, and lined by concrete. Elsewhere fair-faced brickwork and recycled timber enrich the interiors further.
