Green Concerto · 重现自然美景的五十年老宅翻新

The project is to renovate a fifty years old house on a hill around Tien-Mu area which is located on preserved area. Due to the local building code, we cannot change the original structure of the house. Therefore, the design of the new house should start from within the footprint of the old house rather than a new site plan from the site.

The function requirement from the family is rather simple – 4 bedrooms for family members and a guest room and some public spaces.

We tried to open up the perimeter of the old house and merged their living spaces into the surrounding natural landscape and garden.

We demolished all the nonbearing walls at ground floor on the south side facing downhill and connect the living and dining space with garden with water feature and a view with the whole Tien-Mu area.

All the bed rooms located on the second floor. We created a courtyard to bring in sun light which located next to a small living space and corridor. The stair located in the courtyard is able to connect the private spaces on the second floor to the outdoors roof terrace which was not often used before, and became the most beloved gathering space after the restoration.

This project is not only a restoration for the 50 years old house, but it becomes much more accessible for the family members to again embrace the natural environment as their new life style which they took for granted from the past.

本案为一个位于天母山区五十年老宅的翻新设计，由于基地位于保护区内，因此建筑无法重新规划改建，只能在现有的建筑架构下进行翻新，因此设计上的挑战是在许多法规与结构条件限制之下，尽可能的将建筑外观及内部空间配置进行重整。

由于基地本身优异的自然环境，及南向鸟瞰台北市景观的特点，因此设计上，希望尽量将户外的环境与建筑内部空间结合延伸，一楼的公共生活空间除了保留原有结构承重墙外，我们尽量将南向立面的墙面打开，让室内外空间更加通透，让基地南向的景观水池、庭园及远方的大台北景观都可以映入生活空间中。

空间配置上，将较私密的卧室空间及起居空间规画于二楼，设计上刻意内退出中庭空间，由起居室及走道环绕其周边，使得即使身处二楼，仍享有中庭绿化及良好的通风采光效果。沿着中庭的户外梯可到达屋顶平台，藉此将原本闲置的屋顶空间与建筑主体更紧密的串连起来，设计上更将原本屋顶厚重的女儿墙局部变更为通透的玻璃，使得整个屋顶平台更为通透轻盈，更成为了家人欢聚的绝佳空间。

本案不仅改造了这栋五十年屋龄的老宅，更改变了屋主的生活模式，让绝佳的基地环境融合于生活空间之中，也让家人们更乐于欢聚于此。
