琼诺地区作为首尔的中心已经有600多年的历史了。它作为许多文化、教育和政治机构的所在地发挥着重要作用。它也是一个还没有完全被现代高层建筑所控制的社区，就像这个城市的许多其他地方一样。

Jongno district has been the center of Seoul for over 600 years. It plays an important role as home to number of cultural, educational and political institutions. It is also a neighborhood which has not yet been completely dominated by modern high-rise buildings, as is the case in many other parts of the city.

Jongno充满了小小的、风景如画的小巷和传统的韩国房屋。这使它成为一个很好的地方，在拥挤的繁忙的首都找到一个和平和安静的绿洲。

Jongno is full of tiny, picturesque alleys and traditional Korean houses – hanoks. This makes it a great place for Seoulites to find an oasis of peace and quiet in the crowded bustling capital.

不幸的是，该地区的许多人已经多年没有人居住了。如果没有维修，这些历史建筑正在慢慢失修。

Unfortunately, many hanoks in the area have not been inhabited for years. Without maintenence, these historical buildings are slowly falling into disrepair.

德西建筑师已经完成了一个项目，其中四个相邻的手柄被转换成一个多用途的空间，称为‘sikmul’，这给传统韩国建筑的特征和氛围带来了当代的扭曲，并为该地区注入了新的生命。现在，Sikmul是一个生动的开放艺术空间和咖啡馆，举办了许多文化活动，并在首尔提供了一个独特的聚集地。

desi_architects has completed a project in which four adjacent hanoks were converted into one mutli- purpose space called ‘Sikmul’, which gives a contemporary twist to the character and atmosphere of traditional Korean architecture and breathes new life into the area. Now Sikmul is a vivid open art space and café bar that plays host to numerous cultural events and offers a unique gathering spot in Seoul.

将衰老的手柄转换成现代艺术空间是一个多步骤的过程。首先，一些墙壁被拆除，以连接建筑物和创造一个更广阔的空间。

The conversion of the decrepit hanoks into a modern art space was a multi-step process. First, some of the walls were torn down in order to join the buildings and create a wider space.

屋顶被完全拆除，用透明玻璃取代，这允许自然光和额外的体积。个别的屋顶瓷砖被重新使用来建造新的墙壁，以保持古老的传统建筑的温暖气氛的原始外观。

The roof was then completely removed and replaced with transparent glass, which allowed for natural light and additional volume. Individual roof tiles were reused to construct new walls for an original look that preserved the warm aura of the old traditional buildings.

大楼的主要外墙是用有机玻璃建造的。然而，旧墙的遗骸却在黄昏后保存下来，当室内的灯亮起来时，从外面就可以看到它们的轮廓。这种效果同时投射出建筑物的过去和现在的外观。

The main façade of the building was constructed with plexiglass. The remains of old walls, however, were preserved inside and after dusk, when the interior lights are turned on, their silhouette can be seen from the outside. This effect simultaneously projects a picture of both the past and present appearance of the building.

大楼一侧的高架座位区向街道开放，让客人们享受到室外的气氛，感受到与周围社区的开放和联系。

The elevated seating area on one side of the building is opened to the street, allowing guests to enjoy an outdoor atmosphere and a feeling of openness and connection with the surrounding neighborhood.
