Minnesota 湖边别墅室内设计丨Ryan Lawson

正如大多数装饰师会告诉你的那样，创意是室内设计一部分，而另一部分则是外交。既要让客户满意，又要地引导他们实现自己的创意愿景，这便需要有一双巧手。在Minnesota州的这座湖边别墅中，这一理念被发挥到了极致。纽约设计师Ryan Lawson花了7年时间对其进行了翻修。

As most decorators will tell you, interior design is one part creativity, two parts diplomacy. Keeping clients happy while gently guiding them toward one’s creative vision takes a deft hand. That was pushed to the extreme in the case of this lake house in Minnesota, renovated over the course of seven years by New York–based designer Ryan Lawson.

客户是他的伴侣Sean Robins的68岁的母亲。这家人在这所房子里住了30年了。虽然很多人会对这种充满情感的翻新会退避三舍，但Sean Robins却欣然接受了它，并与他的岳母密切合作，创造了一个充满意义、丰富和魅力的家。

The client was the 68-year-old mother of his partner, Sean Robins. The family had lived in the house for 30 years. While many would shy away from such an emotionally charged renovation, Lawson embraced it, working closely with his de facto mother-in-law to create a home filled with meaning, richness, and charm.

一切都要从Sean Robins邀请Ryan Lawson去看他从小住的房子说起。Sean Robins在考虑重新布置她的卧室家具。他们要知道的是，浴室需和窗户要被拆掉、厨房需要被清空。随之而来的是项目庞大的工程量。一个新的房子基本上是在20世纪初的农舍的外壳内建造的：新的墙壁、天花板、窗户和固定装置。Ryan Lawson说：“它已经朝着某个特定的方向发展了，那里到处都是花边和法式壁灯。”他想把它改造成一个更好的版本，让它成为一座湖畔别墅。

It all started when Sean Robins invited Ryan Lawson to see the house he grew up in. Sean Robins is thinking about rearranging her bedroom furniture. They need to know that bathrooms and Windows need to be taken out and kitchens need to be emptied. With that comes the sheer volume of the project. A new house is basically built within the shell of an early 20th century farmhouse: new walls, ceilings, Windows and fixtures. "It's gone in a certain direction," says Ryan Lawson. "It's full of lace and French sconces." He wanted to transform it into a better version and make it a lakeside villa.

湖畔小屋始建于20世纪早期至中期，并在20世纪70年代进行了大规模重建。它在使用期间曾多次被扩建，Lawson想把里面的东西都剥掉，“让它恢复到它本来应该有的更好的样子。”

The lake house was first built in the early to mid-1900s and given a major rebuild in the 1970s. It had been extended at various points during its lifetime, and Lawson wanted to strip everything back inside, “to return it to a better version of what it should have been.”

Lawson对泥土色调和自然材料的兴趣是一个完美的结合。比利时进口的石灰漆、纯白橡木橱柜和主浴室的乳白色回收玻璃瓷砖结合在一起，给房子带来一种触觉上的深度感。当代摄影作品、配件和照明让一切都变得生动起来，使其具有新鲜的特点。家具都是朴实自然的，所以他想用艺术品来衬托它们。

Lawson’s interest in earthy color palettes and natural materials was a neat fit. Lime paint imported from Belgium, solid white oak kitchen cabinets, and creamy recycled glass tiles in the master bathroom combine to give the house a sense of tactile depth. Contemporary photography, accessories, and lighting jolt everything alive to give it a fresh character. The furnishings were all earthy and natural, so Lawson wanted the artwork to be a foil to them.
