架构师提供的文本描述。“Den Draad”计划包括两幢位于一幅褐色土地上的新住宅楼宇，并指定重建为一个新的、可持续发展的住宅地带及一个1.5公顷的绿化邻里公园。在这种情况下，现有区块的空隙用新住宅完成。在公园与这条新的街道外观之间的边界上，设想了两栋住宅建筑，它们在新公园区的边缘占据突出位置。这些建筑物被定位为一个功能的最佳和成本效益的土壤去污.它们构成了一个有连续街区的住宅区与一个公共公园之间的过渡点。

Text description provided by the architects. The ‘Den Draad’ project consists of two new residential buildings on a brownfield site which is earmarked for redevelopment into a new, sustainable residential zone and a green neighbourhood park of 1.5 ha. In this context, the margins of the existing block are completed with new residences. On the boundary between the park and this new street façade, two residential buildings have been conceived, which assume a prominent position at the edge of the new park zone. The buildings were positioned as a function of optimal and cost-effective soil decontamination. They constitute the point of transition between a residential area with continuous blocks and a public park.

尽管由于场地周围条件的不同，建筑物的形状不同，但建筑还是形成了一条堤坝。这两者的典型特点是体积庞大，优雅地让位给一群树、一条通道、一个形成地下停车场入口的切口，等等。这两栋建筑也都是紧凑的体积，住宅尽量面向公园。这种紧凑性是生产节能住宅的一个非常重要的方面，尽管如此，体积的多样性还是会产生不同的形象。

Despite the differences in form – caused by the surrounding conditions of the site – the buildings form a dyad. Both are typified by robust volumes which elegantly give way to a group of trees, a passageway, an incision which forms the entrance to an underground car park, etc. Both buildings are also compact volumes in which the residences are oriented towards the park as much as possible. That compactness is a very important aspect of producing energy-efficient homes, whereby the volumetric diversity nonetheless results in a differentiated image.

这两座住宅的建筑都是建立在新公园边缘独特的、共享的位置之上的。与现有的和新建的街道立面的垂直节奏相反，这些建筑坚决地打出横向形象的牌，坚持表达建筑物的自主性和公园的景观。每个住宅单元都包含一个广阔的外部空间和公园的景观，体现了这一概念。

The architecture of both residential buildings is based on the unique, shared position at the edge of the new park. In contrast to the vertical rhythm of the existing and new street facades, these buildings resolutely play the card of a horizontal image, insistent on expressing the autonomy of the buildings and of the view on the park. Each residential unit comprises an extensive exterior space and views on the park which embody this concept.

外墙由不同节奏的落叶松板和板条组成，直接影响建筑的水平性。木质壁板不仅符合尽可能节能和可持续发展的理念，而且还旨在使建筑物融入公园的自然框架。

The exterior walls consist of bands with a changing rhythm of larch planks and slats which direct the horizontality of the architecture. The wooden siding is not only in keeping with the concept of creating as energy-efficient and sustainable a project as possible but is also aimed at enabling the buildings’ integration in the natural frame of the park.

当建筑物在地下与公园相连时，过渡是通过在高质量的立面混凝土中微妙地绕过而实现的，这种混凝土与上面的木质立面构件的结构相同。建筑物的基础设计的方式，使紧凑的单位，最大限度的灵活性。每个单元都有一个清晰的结构，由1或2个对角线支撑墙组成，这使得一个单独的、个性化的解释或未来的修改成为可能。

Where the buildings join the park at ground level, the transition is materialised by means of a subtle skirting in high-quality façade concrete which mirrors the same structure as the grain of the above-lying wooden façade elements. The foundations of the building were designed in such a way as to enable compact units with maximum flexibility. Each unit has a clear structure of 1 or 2 diagonal supporting walls which enable an individual, personalised interpretation or future modifications.

该项目具有很高的可持续性雄心：在低能源标准的同时，它也被设计成在使用Nibe级3级或更好的材料的整个生命过程中的最大适应性和耐用性。

The project carries a high sustainability ambition: alongside low-energy standards, it was also designed for maximum adaptability and durability over the course of its lifetime using NIBE-class-3-compliant materials or better.
