弹性建筑可以适应和发展城市不断变化的规划和居住者的生活方式。不幸的是，由于旧建筑库存变得过时，这导致浪费，空或利用不足的空间。例如，在荷兰，估计每年建造的新建筑物的总空置率是五倍。此外，无法适应不断变化的需要的建筑物必须拆除，造成巨大的浪费和污染。据估计，欧盟36%的二氧化碳排放量和40%的能源消耗是由建筑造成的。Superloft采用开放建筑方法，使用灵活开放的框架，很容易适应不断变化的使用和维护周期，以便于采用循环和弹性的建筑方式。它的建筑系统可以在独立的循环中更新，而不会浪费材料或拆除建筑物。例如，支撑结构可以无休止地使用，立面每25年更新一次，设施(暖通空调系统)每十年更新一次，内部每5年更新一次。每个系统都可以在独立的循环中重复使用或回收，利用新兴的循环经济。

Resilient buildings can adapt and evolve to a city’s ever-changing programme and the lifestyles of the people who inhabit them. Unfortunately as older building stock becomes obsolete this results in wasted empty or under-utilised space. For example, in the Netherlands, the estimated total building vacancy is five times the number of new buildings constructed annually. Moreover, buildings that are unable to adapt to changing needs have to be demolished, creating enormous waste and pollution. Estimates suggest that buildings are responsible for 36% of C02 emissions and 40% of energy consumption in the EU. Superlofts follows the Open Building approach, utilising a flexible and open framework that easily adapts to changing cycles of use and maintenance to facilitate a circular and resilient way of building. Its building systems can be updated in independent cycles without wasting materials or demolishing the building. For example, the support structure can be used endlessly, facades are updated every 25 years, installations (HVAC systems) every decade and interiors every 5 years. Each system can be reused or recycled in independent cycles, tapping into the emerging circular economy.

超级阁楼促进了城市居民今天所要求的高质量生活。作为一座健康的建筑，它使用清洁能源、可持续材料、节能设施和高质量的室内设施，具有丰富的自然空气、光线和绿色。健康的建筑使居民更快乐，城市更健康。

Superlofts promotes a high quality of life that urban residents demand today. As a healthy building it’s constructed using clean energy, sustainable materials, energy-efficient installations and its high quality interiors feature plentiful natural air, light and greenery. Healthy buildings result in happier residents and healthier cities.

Superloft吸引了一个越来越多的个人群体，他们拥有创造性的和创业的心态，他们生活在新的混合生活方式中，有着特定的空间需求。将住宅与办公室或工作室、音乐工作室或商业厨房结合在一起的可能性在传统住宅中受到限制；Superloft提供的空白帆布使这些混合生活形式成为可能。

Superlofts appeals to a growing community of individuals, with creative and entrepreneurial mindsets, who live new hybrid lifestyles with specific spatial demands. The possibilities of combining a home with an office or atelier, music studio or commercial kitchen are restricted in conventional housing; the blank canvas that Superlofts offers makes these hybrid forms of living possible.

这一概念的灵感来源于MKA设计的一座工业海港建筑的住宅改造(类似于住宅的村庄)，然后被应用于一个名为de Hoofden的试验性业主合作社。MKA将该项目进一步发展为Superloft，成为与买家和租房者共同组成的国际建筑社区网络。在阿姆斯特丹(Buikslterham和Houthaven)和乌得勒支完成了5个超级阁楼，格罗宁根、阿姆斯特丹和德尔夫特的项目正在建造中。目前正在对七个国际城市的遗址进行研究。

The concept was inspired by an MKA-designed residential retrofit (House like village) of an industrial harbour building, and was then applied in an experimental home owners’ cooperative called De Hoofden. MKA developed the project further as Superlofts into an international network of building communities, with both buyers and renters. Five Superlofts have been completed in Amsterdam (Buiksloterham and Houthaven) and Utrecht, projects in Groningen, Amsterdam and Delft are under construction. Sites in seven international cities are being researched.
