振兴维尔纽斯的Raugykla街道的车站社区，以前是一个贫困的仓库，今天被改造成一个公寓楼，底层是建筑师的工作室。该项目成为一个例子，说明低价值的建筑如何被改造，并激发了振兴街道的进程。
Reviving Station neighborhood in Vilnius, Raugykla street, a former deprived warehouse today is transformed into an apartment building with an architects’ studio on the ground floor. The project became an instance of how the low-value architecture may be transformed and inspire the process of revitalizing the street.
DO建筑事务所放弃了拆除旧建筑并在其位置上建造全新住宅的昂贵而低效的决定。建筑师们从不同的角度来看待这个项目，并选择了对现有建筑的改造–重建和改造废弃的空间，以满足雄心勃勃的城镇居民的现代需求。年轻的、思想进步的人被这个即将到来的城市新镇区和一种新型的住宅楼吸引住了。他们聚集在社区，开设新的舒适的商店、酒吧、咖啡馆、企业。
DO ARCHITECTS has abandoned the costly and inefficient decision to demolish the old building and build a brand-new residential house in its place. Architects looked at this project from a different angle and chose the conversion of existing buildings – to reconstruct and adapt abandoned spaces to the modern needs of ambitious townspeople. Young, progressive-minded people are attracted by this upcoming urban Newtown area and a new type of residential buildings to live in. They are gathering in communities, opening new cozy shops, bars, cafes, businesses.
这个仓库改造保留了现有建筑的最佳特征，并将其与现代解决方案联系起来。通过更新的玻璃幕墙，可以观察到建筑师办公室的日常生活–厨房里的谈话、创意会议、讲座和每周活动。与乒乓球一起，桑拿房也在办公室内部实施。它从街上可以看到，在晚上，它成为路人的一个可爱的惊喜。在楼层的另一半，一个带有巨大露台的开放式工作空间让你可以与你的团队自由交流，分享知识，感受办公室的脉搏。
This warehouse conversion preserved the best features of an existing building and connected them with modern solutions. Through the renewed glass façade, the daily life of the architects’ office may be observed – talks in the kitchen, creative meetings, lectures, and weekly events. Along with table tennis, the sauna is implemented in the office interior. It is visible from the street and, in the evening, it becomes a lovely surprise for the passers-by. On the other half of the floor, an open-plan workspace with a huge terrace allows you to freely communicate with your team, share the knowledge and feel the pulse of the office.
建筑物本身适应了内部的现代需求：第一层住宅是为小而实用的城市工作室设计的，入口在露台上，可以看到两边的风景，第二层的居民住在阁楼式的公寓里，有高高的天花板，小天井和屋顶的露台。在外观上，更新的玻璃外墙和精致的木质大门装饰成为背景地标。
The building itself is adapted for a contemporary need inside: the first residential floor is designed for the small but functional city studios with entrance from the terraces and view from both sides, the residents of the second floor live in loft-type apartments with high ceilings, small patios, and roof terraces. In the exterior, the renewed glass facade and sophisticated wooden finishing of the gates become the contextual landmark.
