架构师提供的文本描述。该项目是孟买班德拉一栋60岁大家庭住宅的延伸，面积1500平方米，占地四层。这位客户是超级豪华车的爱好者和收藏家，他要求以檐篷的形式对他的家进行两次扩建，以保护他珍贵的财产不受这些元素的影响，同时还要求对包括外部电梯核心在内的设施进行全面现代化改造。

Text description provided by the architects. The project is an extension to a large 60 year old family home in Bandra, Mumbai, 1500 square meters, spread over four floors. The client being a lover and collector of super luxury cars requested twin extensions to his home in the form of canopies, to protect his prized possessions from the elements, along with an overall modernization of the facilities including an exterior elevator core.

对客户来说，最重要的是把我们的干预措施看作是圆形的雕塑物体-每个表面都需要对细节进行细致的关注-尤其是当每一张脸，包括下腹部，在进入家中时都能在视觉上接触到的情况下。

Of utmost importance to the client was the treatment of our interventions as sculpted objects in the round – with each surface demanding a meticulous attention to detail – especially as every face, including the under belly, is visually accessible to visitors whilst entering the home.

我们的建议利用现有的现场几何作为指标，并利用它们生成几何，从而形成一种适合于现有环境的形式。这些指示符以不同宽度的凹槽的形式表达，强调某些上下文位置的重要性，而主要的凹槽则嵌在其中，突出了主要上下文连接的重要性。由此产生的沟槽网络服务于将雨水引导到收集盘中的双重目的，从那里它被隆重地排放到毗邻的花坛。

Our proposal utilized the existing geometry on site as indicators, and used them to generate a geometry, resulting in a form that fits snugly within the existing context. These site guidelines, indicators,are expressed in the form of grooves, of varying widths, that stress the importance of certain contextual placements over others.The major grooves have embedded within them lights, highlighting the importance of the primary contextual connections. This resulting network of grooves serves the double purpose of channelling rainwater into a collection plate, from where it is discharged ceremoniously into the adjoining flower bed.

下腹也受到了对细节的极大关注，在这里，现有的场地排列再次在几何、材料差异以及照明位置方面发挥了至关重要的作用-通过降低天花板，轴线导致了住宅的突出。雨水收集板，是从结构上区别于其余的下腹部的冠层，通过继续的重要性，顶部到下表面-揭示它的交替用途。

The underbelly too received an extreme attention to detail, where once again existing site alignments played a vital role in geometry, material differentiation, as well as lighting placement – with the axis leading to the home being accentuated through a lowering of the ceiling. The rain water collection plate, is texturally differentiated from the rest of the underbelly of the canopy, by continuing with the materiality of the top onto the lower surface – revealing its alternate purpose.

类似于檐篷，电梯核心的几何形状也是从相邻的上下文指南中出现的。结构、连接线，当然还有沟槽，都是通过现有立面的背景来找到形式和目的。

Similar to the canopies the geometry of the elevator core too emerged from adjoining contextual guidelines. The structure, joint lines, and of course the grooves, all find form and purpose though context of the existing facade.

为该项目选择的材料和纹理是在家庭-白色抹灰表面，处理随机碎石玄武岩石墙，ipe木材和玻璃现有的调色板的延续。除了加入这些材料以表示向旧的无缝过渡外，我们还利用了耐候钢的乡土而富有诗意的物质性-这种材料不需要绘画，一旦暴露在天气中，就会形成稳定的锈状外观。因此就有了这个名字，橙色的分号。

The materials and textures chosen for the project are a continuation of the existing paletteprevailing within the home – white plastered surfaces, treated random rubble basalt stone walls, ipe wood and glass. Our intervention in addition to incorporating these materials to signify a seamless transition into the old, utilized the rustic yet poetic materiality of weathering steel –a material that eliminates the need for painting, and forms a stable rust like appearance once exposed to the weather. Hence the name, THE ORANGE EXTENSION.
