悉尼独特别墅庭院丨澳大利亚悉尼丨Kyra Thomas Architects

当建筑师Kyra ThomasKyra Thomas打算改造一个供家人居住的地方，她并不是在寻找一个普通的挑战。巧合的是，这让Kyra发现了悉尼Queens Park郊区街区中心的一个旧仓库，于是她想要用这个旧仓库来创造非常特别的东西。而激发她的这一想法的是，她跟他丈夫的好朋友改造了附近的一间小屋，令他们也有了同样的想法，想去寻找并做一些类似的事情。

When architect Kyra ThomasKyra Thomas set out to transform a place for her family to live in, she wasn't looking for an ordinary challenge. Coincidentally, this led Kyra to an old warehouse in the heart of Sydney's Queens Park suburb, which she wanted to use to create something very special. She was inspired to find and do something similar when she and her husband's best friend remodeled a nearby cabin.

Kyra和她的丈夫在旧仓库原有的红砖围墙内进行了改造工作，她保留了原有建筑的历史和精髓，同时引入了一个围绕四个花园庭院的新住宅。该项目在2020年悉尼第一次封锁前几周完工，Kyra和她的丈夫带着一个八周大的婴儿和一个蹒跚学步的孩子搬进了新家。这是一座被精心设计完成的家，安静且远离城市的喧嚣，在这里他们感到很安全，很踏实，很安定。

Kyra and her husband worked within the original red brick walls of the old warehouse, preserving the history and essence of the original building while introducing a new home around four garden courtyards. The project was completed just weeks before Sydney's first lockdown in 2020, and Kyra and her husband moved into a new home with an eight-week-old baby and a toddler. It was a well-designed home, quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the city, where they felt safe, secure and settled.

仓库那3.5米高的红砖墙一直延伸到了边界，在改造中得到了保留，且从住宅的每个开口几乎都可以看到。墙壁更广泛地将住宅与邻居和郊区的环境分隔开来，Kyra认为它们“围绕着他们创造的新生活”。房子作为一个战斧遗址，在街道上几乎没有存在感，因为仓库墙壁的外立面保持着不变，所以房子对他们的邻居几乎没有影响，而花园庭院让居住在这里的他们可以欣赏到美丽的景观和广阔的天空。

The 3.5-metre-high red brick wall of the warehouse, which extends all the way to the border, was retained during the renovation and is visible from almost every opening in the house. The walls more broadly separate the house from its neighbours and suburban surroundings, and Kyra believes they "surround the new life they create". As a tomahawk site, the house has little presence on the street, as the exterior facade of the warehouse walls remains unchanged, so the house has little impact on their neighbors, while the garden courtyard allows them to enjoy the beautiful landscape and wide sky as they live here.

起初，没有良好的视野，那么Kyra就需要自己去创造，使视野能够穿过四个庭院，每个房间都相互作用，在这里可以引进新鲜的空气、自然光线和设置室内绿色植物。他们与景观事务所Fieldwork Associates合作，将每个庭院都设计成感觉像是每个房间的延伸，而每个房间共享不同的朝向和室外空间的景观。绿色植物是分层的，为住宅带来了纹理和色彩。由于庭院处于一个较好的位置，视野、开放性和充足的自然光都非常特别。

At first, without a good view, Kyra needed to create a view through the four courtyards, where each room interacted, bringing in fresh air, natural light and indoor greenery. Working with landscape firm Fieldwork Associates, they designed each courtyard to feel like an extension of each room, which shares different orientations and views of the outdoor space. The greenery is layered, bringing texture and color to the home. Because the courtyard is in a good location, the views, openness and plenty of natural light are very special.
