架构师提供的文本描述。高架装配是为一个著名的作家/艺术家/花园设计师夫妇和两个年幼的孩子而设计的，在布鲁克林的RedHook有第二套公寓，作为可出租的租户空间。这座原本建于1900年左右的三层联排别墅，在超级风暴桑迪以八英尺半高的水淹没地下室和底层时，遭到了严重破坏。建筑物的一部分倒塌了，需要进行彻底的肠道修复。该项目与纽约市住房回收计划“重建IT”密切合作，成为该市第一个提升现有附属砖石屋面的项目，以便底层将位于高水平线之上两英尺处，即所谓的“设计洪水高程”(DFE)。

Text description provided by the architects. Elevated Assembly was designed for a noted writer/artist/garden designer couple with two young children, with a second apartment as rentable tenant space in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The three-story townhouse, built originally around 1900, was severely damaged when Superstorm Sandy flooded the basement and ground floor with eight and a half feet of water. A portion of the building collapsed, requiring a complete gut renovation. Working closely with the New York City housing recovery program “BUILD IT BACK”, this project became the first in the city to elevate an existing attached masonry rowhouse so that the ground floor would be two feet above the high water line, the so-called Design Flood Elevation (DFE).

该项目的主要概念和名称强调建筑物的拆除是对破坏和恢复一套新的环境条件的过程的承认。这种设计要求创造了充满自然光的戏剧性的开放式阁楼空间，它将外部和内部空间融合在一个延伸的、凸起的花园中，由一位业主和她与之合作的公司“城市绿色”(UrbanGreen)设计。抗洪性设计准则在整个过程中被纳入，所有楼层的高度也由于将一楼定位在DFE之上而被提高。符合新的法规要求，使整个建筑物的高度得以提高，容纳新的顶层公寓加设。

The main concept and name of this project emphasized the lifting of the building as a recognition of the process of destruction and recovery for a new set of environmental conditions. This design imperative led to the creation of the dramatic open loft space filled with natural light that merged the exterior and interior space in an extended, raised garden, designed by one owner and the company she works with, Urban Green. Flood resilient design guidelines were incorporated throughout and all the floor elevations were also raised as a result of locating the first floor above the DFE. Meeting the new code requirements enabled the overall height of the building to be increased, accommodating the new penthouse addition.

底层的起居区有一个17英尺高的空间，有着巨大的玻璃，模糊了内外之间的界限。它通过修复的甲板向南向后花园开放。阁楼和下面的地板有一种更为家居的氛围，天花板高度适中，包括主卧室、儿童卧室和浴室。阁楼采用自定义的黑色电缆网设计在布拉格，业主原来的家，以尽量减少空间之间的隔离，并创造了一个更令人印象深刻的后墙的花园。

The ground floor living quarters enjoy a dramatic 17’ double height space with monumental glazing to blur the boundary between the inside and outside. It opens to the south rear garden through the restored deck.  The mezzanine and the floor below have a more domestic atmosphere with a modest ceiling height and comprise the master bedroom, children’s bedroom and bathroom. The mezzanine utilizes a custom blackened cable net designed by Cabletech in Prague, the owners’ original home, to minimize the separation between the spaces and create a more impressive view out the back wall to the garden.
