架构师提供的文本描述。瑞士巴塞尔的前Burckhardt机械厂的主会场多年来一直被用作活动场所。对于一个新的租户(unchlabs.ch)，这个结构现在被要求作为一个多功能的工作环境。

我们的目标是创造一个空间，提供无数的可能性-合作、定期办公工作站、休闲和文化活动场所、工作坊-同时仍然能够举办更大的活动。主要的干预措施是在房屋内插入一个自动木制装置-一所房子。

The goal is to create a space, offering countless possibilities – co-working, regular office workstations, areas for casual and cultural activities, workshops – all while still being able to host bigger events. The main intervention consist in the insertion of an autonomous wooden installation – a house within a house.

除其他外，它包含接待，因此位于大厅的主要入口。为了在底层保持最大的灵活性，大部分建筑都被高架起来，挂在木横梁上，只剩下衣柜和楼下一个小的、梳着木棒的会议室。

Amongst others it contains the reception and is therefore situated at the primary entry of the hall. In order to preserve a maximum of flexibility on the ground floor, most of the construction is elevated and suspended on wooden beams, leaving only the wardrobe and a small carped-claded meeting cell downstairs.

楼上的两个会议空间，大小和方向不同，构成了建筑的主体。在上面，你可以找到一个为非正式会议、暂停和休息活动提供空间的甲板。所有的人都在大厅的屋檐下，通常只有从远处才能体验到.

Upstairs two meeting spaces, differentiated in size and orientation, form the main body of the construction. On top you can find a deck offering an area for informal meetings, pausing and laid back activities. All being closely under- neath the hall roof, usually only experienced from far.

所有的建筑都是在一个单一的材料：层压板木材。结构的表达直接来源于应用建筑技术，所有细木工都是可见的，概念是可以理解的。

All of the construction is conceived in one single material: laminated veneer lumber. The expression of the structure results directly from the applied building techniques, all the joinery is visible, the concept understandable.

不同的外部环境以有趣的方式影响了设计：-由于安装是为室内空间设想的，因此该项目摆脱了环境要求和限制。细节被发明，机制保持简单，原材料。

Different external circumstances influenced the design in interesting ways: - Because of the main access to the hall being a regular sized door, the whole structure had to be developed as an addition of prefabricated pieces, small enough to be manipulated by hand and easily assembled on site. - Since the installation is conceived for an indoor space, the project was liberated from environmental requirements and constraints. Details were invented, mechanisms kept simple and materials raw.

这样，房子里的房子就有了很强的个性，一方面适应了现存的魅力，另一方面又通过物化解放了自己。能够添加到位置标识的元素。

Thus the house within the house gets a strong character, on the one hand adapting to the charms of the existing, on the other hand emancipating itself through its materialization. An element capable of adding to the identity of the location.
