架构师提供的文本描述。在没有房地产投机的趋势下，城市租赁业迎来了一个巨大的转型时期。从租房到好房子，再到理想的生活方式，人们对城市生活的理解将逐渐提升到一个新的、更有价值的城市。关于城市文化将成为生活方式本身的命题，我们试图通过一系列基于研究的住宅设计实践来探索未来。通过“活塞室”，探讨了北京蚂蚁部落公寓空间的时间利用问题。通过“胶囊之家”，我们已经考虑了在这个城市的极限收集胶囊中新空间的可能性。2016年，我们有机会系统地探索了一个完整城市的“生命有机体”，形成了深圳元正工业园区的“屋顶家园”。

Text description provided by the architects. Under the trend of "no real estate speculation", the urban leasing industry has ushered in a period of great transformation. From renting a room to a good house to a desired lifestyle, people's understanding of life in the city will gradually rise to a new more valued one. As to the proposition that urban culture will become the lifestyle itself, we try to explore the future through a series of research-based residential design practices. Through the "Piston Room", we discussed the time utilization of the Beijing ant tribe’s apartment space. Through the "Capsule Home", we’ve thought about the possibility of new space in the city's extreme collection capsules. In 2016, we had a chance to systematically explore the "living organism" of a complete city, which gave birth to the " Home on the Roof " of Shenzhen Yuanzheng industrial park.

该项目位于深圳班田区，这是一个IT公司作为工业区的领域。原来的大楼是工业园区的宿舍楼。经过多年的闲置，现已破败不堪。至于一楼至三楼则由其他公司使用，我们只能使用现有室内空间的两部分，一层是独立社区入口的一楼，另一层是宿舍的第三至七层作为居住单位。这意味着整个社区将没有任何公共服务空间设施。为了解决这个问题，我们发现建筑物的两侧有两个巨大的屋顶空间，有了屋顶，我们就可以设计一个“屋顶上的家”，人们可以在那里跑步，看日落，或者只是发呆。通过这种方式，社区与城市形成了沟通。

The project is located in the area of Bantian Shenzhen, a field of IT companies as an industry area. The original building is a dormitory building in an industrial park. After many years of idle, now dilapidated. As for the first to third floors of the area is used by other companies, we can only use two parts of the existing indoor space, one is the first floor of an independent community entrance, the other is the third to seventh floors of the dormitory building as a living unit. It means that the entire community will not have any public service space facilities. To solve this problem, we found that there are two huge roof spaces on both sides of the buildings, With the roof, we may be able to design a " Home on the Roof ", where people can run, see the sunset, or just be in a daze. In this way, the community forms a communication to the city.

如何在城市更新战略的形势下构建一个有生命的有机体？如何做一个戏剧性的设计？这些问题已经成为我们设计的焦点。我们已经建立了一个“几何社区系统”与黄色的“链接路径”。通过入口处，一个屋顶环，空气轨道，景观画廊，和多层住宅单元，整个住宅社区就像一个沉浸在城市中的舞台。就像一个从街道延伸的戏剧场景，社区与城市共享健康和风景。

How to build a living organism in based of the urban renewal strategy situation? How to make a dramatic design? These questions have become the focus of our design. We’ve built a "Geometric Community System" with a yellow "Link Trail". Through the entrance, a rooftop ring, air track, landscape gallery, and multi-level residential units, the entire residential community like an immersive stage in a city. Like a drama scene extending from the street, the community shares health and scenery with the city.

由于深圳典型的气候特点，原有的裙楼周围有一个深门廊，入口位于建筑物的背面。一个比原来的檐深得多的悬挂天篷被设计成将水流引入建筑物。10米长的穿孔板漂浮在水流上方，引导水流进入你的社区，这也给顾客留下了第一印象，从底部到顶部都是亮黄色。

The entrance There is a deep porch around the original skirt building since the typical climate characteristics of Shenzhen, and the entrance lies at the backside of the building. A hanging canopy which is much deeper than the original eave was designed to introduce the flow into the building. The 10-meter-long Perforation plate floats above the flow, leading the flow into the YOU+ community, which also give customers the first impression by the bright yellow from the bottom to the top.

屋顶环路是共享和统一的象征，而十字架代表着你的品牌和活力。一个新的几何图案形成的环和十字被设计成一个多功能的公共区域在三层屋顶上。居民们从建筑中走出来，沿着一个被白色帆布覆盖的升降平台绕着公共空间盘旋，圆圈直径测量为17米。一个交叉图案是由空间中的四个容器组成的。由于使用者从地面上走来走去，吊起的站台给人一种通向屋顶的暗示，同时，用户的视线也被举起来，以获得护栏外的视野。居民们有机会在田野周围茂密的树林中放松和满足。

Loop on the rooftop Loop is a symbol of sharing and unity, while the cross represents the brand and the energetic of the YOU+. A new geometric pattern formed by the loop and the cross was designed to create a multiple functional public area on the third-story rooftop. Residents step out from the building to the central circled public space along a lifted platform covered by a white canvas, the diameter of the circle measured at 17 meters. A cross pattern is consisted by four containers in the space. The lifted platform drops a hint of leading to the rooftop because of users walk above the ground, at the same time, the sights of users are lifted to gain the view outside the parapet. Residents have the chance to relax and fulfilled by the luxuriant woods around the field.

四个容器分别用作阅览室、厨房、博物馆和餐厅，通过与圆圈平台的连接，形成多功能空间。清凉轻柔的微风吹过空间后，打开玻璃折叠门，坐在走廊里看日落，或在容器里玩棋盘游戏，是享受优雅天空的美妙方式。

The four containers are used as reading room, kitchen, museum and dining-hall respectively, by connecting with the circled platform, a multiple functional space is formed. Cool gentle breeze blow through the space after opening the glass folding doors, sitting in the corridors and watching the sunset or playing board games in the containers are wonderful ways to enjoy the elegant sky.

对于那些模棱两可的年轻夫妇来说，空中跑道日常练习也是必要的。南部地区是一个与北部地区颜色和材料相同的运动区。集装箱的布置由交叉型转变为锯齿形，外平台由圆形过渡到经济120米长的跑道。从南跑道往外看的时候，一名篮球教练就在附近的球场上，虽然他们处在两个不同的空间，但他们在一起的感觉越来越强。当夜幕降临时，在天空中跑步比呆在健身房更有吸引力。

Aerial runway Daily exercises are also needed for those ambiguous young couples. The south area is a sport area with same color and materials as the north area. The arrangement of the container changed from the cross pattern to the zig-zag pattern and the outer platform transferred from a circle to an economic 120-meter runway. When looking out from the southern runway, a basketball coach is located at a nearby field and the felling of going all out together getting stronger although they are in two separate space. Running in the sky is much more attractive than stay in the gym when the night falling done.

活力廊低矮的宿舍走廊服务于房间的两侧，房间的门是面对面的，营造了一种生活在一起的感觉，降低了生活质量。如何通过简单的重组来改变局面？我们将入口门推入房间一定的距离，使所有的入口都隐藏在洞里，人们只能注意到洞口的一侧，这就保证了走廊的隐私，避免了无尽的走廊和密集的门所造成的急躁感。这95个房间的每扇门都是由黄色的天篷、地面和墙壁构成的，这三个因素为每个居民定义了一个私人房间，这也是门后舒适生活的一种暗示。

Vitality gallery The low dorm corridor serviced the room arrayed both side before, the doors of the room was located face to face, which created a sense of living together and reduced the life quality. How to change the situation by a simple restructure? We push the entrance door in to the room for a certain distance, it makes all the entrances are hided in the hole and people can only notice the side of the hole which guarantees the privacy of the corridor and avoids the sense of impetuosity created by the endless corridor and the dense doors. Each door of the 95 rooms is framed by the yellow canopy, ground and the wall, the three factors define a private room for every resident and it is a hint for the cozy life behind the door.

住宅单元在设计过程中主要考虑了三个问题。第一，如何在狭长的房间里创造多层次的生活体验.第二，如何在一件家具中保存房间，并将节约和生活功能结合起来。第三，如何通过设计解决南方气候问题。在考虑了上述三个问题后，针对不同的群体进行了两种布局设计。

Residential unit Three problems were mainly considered during the design process of the residential unit. Firstly, how to create a multi-tiered living experience in the long and narrow room. Secondly, how to save the room and combine the saving and living function in a single piece of furniture. Thirdly, how to solve the southern climate problem by design. After considering the above three questions, two kinds of layout were design for diverse groups.

布局a：室内房间“是根据隐私的考虑而设计的。如果能专门为房间设计一种新型家具，则传统公寓的服务功能将同时包括门厅、节约走廊、卧室、客厅和阳台。在浴室附近放置一个有洞的盒子，包围卧室，盒子的边界给出了其他功能空间的定义。这个盒子不是一个完全封闭的房间，它被放置在离墙壁一定距离的地方，而间隔使得所有的空间都像中国的花园一样连接起来。这样就避免了遮挡感。在材料方面，房间是用与外面的黄漆不同的舒适的木料覆盖的。重叠的墙建立了一种微妙的感觉。最后，该箱提供服务的位置，以节省，用户可以很容易地得到的东西时，躺在床上。

Layout a: Room inside Room The “Room inside Room” was design according to the consideration of the privacy. If a new type of furniture could be design specially for the room, the serval functions of a traditional apartment will be held at the same time including the entrance-hall, corridor for saving, bedroom, living room and balcony. A box with holes are placed near the bathroom to surround a bedroom and the boundaries of the box give definition of the other functional space. The box is not a totally closed room, it was placed at a certain distance away from the wall, and the gap makes all the space connected like the Chinese garden. The sense of occlusion is avoided in this way. As for the materials, the room is covered by cozy wood which is different from the outside yellow paint. The overlapping wall builds a sense of delicate. At last, the box provides serval positions for savings and the users can easily get the things when lying on the bed.

布局B：内部连接的房间根据调查，一些年轻人愿意独居，而不是邀请朋友到他们的房间。在这种情况下，设计了一个大的，运作良好的房间。床是整个房间的核心，阳台成为它旁边的窗台，桌子成为平台，沙发是床的延伸区域。综合家具创造了一个纯净、无障碍的舒适空间。

Layout b: Internally Connected Room According to the survey, some young people are willing to living alone rather than invite friends to their rooms. In this case, a large and well-functioning room was designed. The bed is the core of the whole room, the balcony becomes the bay window beside it while the table becomes the platform and the sofa is the extended area of the bed. A pure and barrier free cozy space is created due to the integrative furniture.

结语：在重建过程中，出现了一些前所未有的困难和挑战。设计和施工周期的压缩和原有建筑的局限性给我们带来了许多问题。对于公共场所，采用预浇铸容器，既避免了政治风险，又节省了成本和时间。

Epilogue During the process of the reconstruction, some difficulties and challenges never seen before were shown up. The compress of the design and construction period and the limitation of the original building brings us many problems. For the public area, the usage of pre-cast container avoided the political risk and saved the cost and time.

城市住宅更新设计是一个复杂的课题，在原有的环境中寻找潜在的创造性积极空间是我们的策略。形式是次要的，而背景是至关重要的。向城市学习是创造一个多层次的城市系统，而不是通过细致的连接和合并来建立一个单一的建筑。最好的居住形式是通过消除住宅的边界并将其放入城市而创造出来的。“天空城堡”就是这一理论的典型例子。

Urban residential update design is a complex subject, searching the potential creative positive space in the original environment is our strategy. The form is secondary while the background is vital. Learning from the city is to create a multi-tiered city system rather than building a single architecture by meticulous connection and amalgamation. The best residential form is created by eliminating the boundary of the residence and putting it into the city. Castle in the Sky is a typical example of this theory.
