Garden Wall 住宅丨英国英格兰丨SoneloArchitects

这次改造的关键在于，我们要在物理上和视觉上将住宅与自然联系起来，并将理想的日光引入生活区。我认为，改建扩建工程需要低调，并与花园和谐统一。这个项目的灵感来自英格兰北部Levens大厅的园艺门户，几何而柔和。我的想法是建造一个带有修建植物的NGV拱门。

Turnkey to this alteration addition lies in our response to connect the home to nature, both physically and visually, and invite desirable daylight into the living area. I also felt the alteration addition needed to be low-key and harmonious with the garden. This project took inspiration from the topiaries gateway at The Levens Hall in Northern England, geometric yet soft. The idea of building a NGV arch with topiaries.

我向客户介绍了设计理念，其核心是增加一堵"可居住的墙"，作为住宅与花园之间的入口。这堵墙延伸到房子的东西两侧，方便进入前庭，同时还能捕捉到急需的北向景观。加建部分的顶部还设有一个天窗，并通过一个宽敞的推拉门将花园景色尽收眼底。两翼和天窗为起居室提供了柔和的日光。

I presented the design concept to client which pivoted around the idea of adding an‘inhabitable wall’, a portal between the home and the garden. The wall extends beyond the house to the east and west to facilitate entry vestibules and simultaneously catch the much needed northerly aspect. The addition is also capped atop with a skylight and punctured with a generous sliding door opening to frame the garden view. The wings together with the skylight give a soft wash of daylight to the living area throughout the day.

现有的棚子需要保留和遮挡，现有的植物需要整合到新的花园设计中，客户希望将草本植物种植在砖砌的花盆里，使其成为整体构图的一部分。新的厨房和生活空间的改造强调开放和温暖。低矮简洁的木质贴面橱柜与柔和的石材顶面搭配，目的是不影响花园周围绿地的视野。

There was an existing shed to keep and screen, existing plants to be integrated into the new garden design, and the clients wanted to have herbs veggie so incorporating brick planters to be part of the overall composition. The new kitchen and living remodeling places emphasizes on openness and warmth. Low clean line timber veneer cabinetries paired with muted stone top aim to not detract from the vantages of the garden surrounding greens.

化妆室和食品室的增加使平台合理化，并决定了空间的过渡体验。这是整个空间从视觉上展现出来的门槛。食品室被谨慎地隐藏在化妆室后面，我们可以省去一扇门，使厨房与储藏室之间的流线更加流畅，减少了视觉上的杂乱感。

The addition of the powder room and pantry rationalize the landing and dictates the transitional experience into the space. This is the threshold when the entire space is visually revealed. The pantry is discreetly concealed behind the powder room that we could eliminate the need of a door, allowing the kitchen to flow freely into the pantry and vice versa minus the visual clutter.

旧厕所没有窗户，浴室也很简陋。我们把它们合并成了一个大小合适的共用卫生间。我们始终希望保持这个房间的开放性。通过巧妙的布局，我们消除了淋浴栏杆和屏风对入口视觉的干扰。梳妆台成了人们使用面盆、淋浴或浴缸时的中心器皿。同时，窗户的视野也得以保持。

Old toilet had no window and the bathroom was poky. We consolidated them into a good size shared bathroom. Consistently we want to maintain the openness in this room. Cleverly working the layout, we eliminated visual clutters of shower rail and screen from the entry experience. The vanity unit becomes the central vessel one pivots around to use the basin, shower or bath. All whilst, the vantages of the windows are maintained.

宽大的窗户和推拉门将花园的美景尽收眼底。从新的扩建部分，即主要起居区开放，一个铺设好的室外用餐露台形成了室内外的连接和流动，一个高起的砖砌吊舱是捕捉阳光的次要座位。综合蔬果床和烧烤炉为后院生活锦上添花。

The large windows/sliding doors frame a wide view of the garden. Opening up from the new extension/main living area, a paved outdoor dining terrace creates indoor outdoor connection and flow, with a raised brick pod as a secondary seating spot to capture the sun. Integrated veggie beds and BBQ add to the backyard living.
