这个有100年历史的维多利亚式别墅的改造项目位于澳大利亚墨尔本市内的布朗斯维克郊区。它的独特之处在于靠近一个历史悠久的砖厂，那里有醒目的砖制烟囱，形成了这个城市场地的背景。

This renovation to a 100 year old Victorian cottage is located in the inner-city Melbourne suburb of Brunswick, Australia. The context is unique in its proximity to an historic brickworks factory that contains striking brick chimneys that form a backdrop to this urban site.

房子的主体是基于朝北的双高窗形式，有一定的角度并在顶部变窄–向烟囱原型表示微妙的敬意。这样做的目的是为了既能看到烟囱，又能将北面的光线引入一个空旷的空间，进入建筑的中心。窗户的形式由一个优雅的、暴露在外的钢制门框构成–一个清晰的、白色的 “模板”，然后被挤压成三维，并由立缝金属覆层包裹。

The main body of the house is based on a double-height window form facing north that is angled and narrows at the top – paying subtle homage to the chimney archetype. The intention is to both frame views of the chimneys, and also to draw north light into a void space and into the centre of the building. The window form is framed externally by an elegant, exposed steel portal frame – a crisp, white ‘stencil’ that is then extruded three dimensionally and wrapped by standing seam metal cladding.

这个特点的窗户被三次复制到房子里–首先是在相邻的空隙中，然后在南面的卧室外窗中再次复制。窗户的规模每次都在缩小，使烟囱的存在通过房屋的深度被纳入视野。起居空间的双高窗形式是用斑点胶木衬托的，在内部和外部都有一个木制的窗户座椅。在外面创造了一个可以坐下来享受花园和历史烟囱的远景的地方。在室内，创造了一个坐着欣赏双高空间和丰富的自然光线的地方。

The feature window is replicated three times back into the house – first in the adjacent void space, and then again in an external bedroom window to the south. The window forms diminish in scale each time allowing the presence of the chimneys to be brought into perspective through the depth of the house. The double-height window form in the living space is lined with spotted gum timber, and both internally and externally incorporates a timber window seat. Outside a place is created to sit and enjoy the garden and distant views of the historical chimneys. Inside, a place is created to sit and appreciate the double-height space and abundant natural light.

为了容纳一个不断扩大的家庭，我们需要与现有的一层楼的房子相区别。一个新的黑色玻璃楼梯标志着从旧到新的过渡，并将人们带到楼上的生活空间、卧室和浴室–所有设计都考虑到了业主孩子的要求。抬高的建筑形式与相邻的青石巷道保持一致，其巧妙的细节是可旋转的木屏风和木鳍，模糊了私人和公共之间的界限。

A departure from the existing one storey house was required to accommodate an expanding family. A new black, glazed staircase form marks the transition from old to new and sweeps one up to an upstairs living space, bedrooms and bathroom – all designed with the requirements of the owners’ children in mind. The elevated architectural form aligns itself with an adjacent bluestone laneway and in its clever detail of pivoting timber screens & timber fins blurs the line between private and public.

生活空间再次被挤压的形式；它是一系列伸展的窗户和木材细木工制品，从低矮的书柜细木工制品过渡到软垫座椅。这个空间盘旋在巷道之上–百叶窗形成了书的末端，捕捉到了近处和远处的巷道景观。外部可旋转的木质屏风和木质鳍片之间的绿色纹理玻璃使视野和光线变得温和。整体的结果是一个精雕细琢的木材细木工制品，在建筑外和建筑内都可以体验到。它不仅仅是室内的细木工制品–它是一个 “双面的立面”，拥抱着公共通道，并提供一个耐人寻味的私人生活空间。其结果可以说是一件 “城市细木工制品”。

The living space is again extruded in form; it is a stretched series of windows and timber joinery that transitions from low credenza joinery to upholstered seat. The space hovers above the laneway – with louvered windows forming book ends that capture both near and distant laneway views. The external pivoting timber screens and textured green glass between timber fins moderate views and light. The overall result is one of finely crafted timber joinery that can be experienced both outside the building and from within. It is more than interior joinery – it is a ‘double-sided façade’ embracing the public laneway and providing an intriguing, private living space. The outcome could be described as a piece of ‘urban joinery’.

翻新设计的目的是为了将几个元素纳入视野；不断变化的家庭需求和庆祝独特的不伦瑞克背景。建筑形式在外部与环境相连接，在内部空间之间也是如此。窗户的形状、大小和开启机制都有所不同，取决于方向和相邻关系。这一切都与连接有关；这也延伸到了其他细节，如当代的彩色纹理玻璃，是为了向维多利亚时代别墅中的传统彩色玻璃窗致敬。

The renovation was designed with the intent to bring several elements into perspective; changing family needs and to celebrate a uniquely Brunswick context. Architectural forms connect with context externally and also between internal spaces. Windows vary in shape, size and opening mechanism depending on orientation and adjacencies. It is all about connection; this also extends to other detail such as contemporary accents of coloured, textured glass that are in homage to traditional stained glass windows found in Victorian cottages.

该建筑的三维形式是强大的，具有雕塑感，同时也展示了澳大利亚的木材，一个明确的钢门框和立缝金属包层。建筑结果满足了客户的要求，即与环境相联系–珍惜的景观成为他们日常生活经验的一个组成部分。

The three-dimensional forms of the building are strong and sculptural whilst also showcasing Australian timbers, an expressed steel portal frame and standing seam metal cladding. The architectural outcome fulfils the clients’ brief to connect with context – cherished views become an integral part of their daily living experiences.
