架构师提供的文本描述。皇家莱明顿水疗中心有一个强大的建筑遗产，可追溯到当时该镇是一个受欢迎的维多利亚温泉度假村。旧图书馆和画廊已改建成30个私人豪华住宅单位，从工作室到大型三卧室住宅。建议的设计符合当地的历史和背景，将原始的遗产特征和特征与清新、现代的室内设计相结合，融入多层次的居住空间，并与综合技术、现代家电和能源效率相结合。作为二级建筑，拆除和重建不被认为是一个适当的解决办法。

Text description provided by the architects. Royal Leamington Spa has a strong architectural heritage dating back to when the town was a popular Victorian spa resort. The Old Library and The Gallery have been converted into 30 private luxury residential units ranging from studios to large 3 bedroom houses. The proposed design is sympathetic to the local history and context, blending original heritage features and character with crisp, modern interior design, incorporating multi-level living spaces and with integrated technology, modern appliances and energy efficiency. Being a Grade II listed building, demolition and rebuilding was not considered an appropriate solution for the site.

通过打开现有的玻璃中庭，在建筑物内创建了一个广阔的景观公共庭院。这一干预帮助释放了住宅的潜力，允许双方面的公寓，更多的日光，以及创造了一个宁静的地区，让居民在阳光明媚的日子放松。前公共建筑的大地板到天花板高度被巧妙地改造成庭院一侧的中间层住宿，同时保留了更大的居住和就餐的原始双高空间。房顶的体积被敏感地修改，在屋顶空间中建立分裂的水平单元，其中一些有屋顶露台俯瞰中央庭院。

An expansive landscaped communal courtyard has been created within the building by opening up an existing glazed atrium. This intervention helped to unlock the potential of the building for residential use,  allowing for double aspect apartments, more  daylight  as well as creating a tranquil area for residents to relax on sunny days. The large floor to ceiling heights of the former public building have been cleverly adapted to create an intermediate  level of accommodation to the courtyard side while retaining the larger original double height spaces for living and dining. The roof volumes were sensitively modified to create split level units in the roof space, some of which have roof terraces overlooking the central courtyard.

新的窗户已经被敏感地引入到外部砖的正面，以保持与原来的建筑物的特点。现有的砖墙外墙已得到修复和保留，装饰华丽的兵马俑图案和门窗环绕，拱形门廊，塔楼和钟楼。内部庭院展示了一个现代的外观，被刺穿的铝玻璃窗的开口，设置在一层赤陶雨幕的面纱后面。这座建筑经过了精心的美化，以软化宏伟的规模，并使其成为一个理想的居住场所。

New windows have been sensitively introduced to the external brick facades to keep in character with the original building. The existing  brick façade has been restored and retained with ornate terracotta motifs and door window surrounds, arched entrance portico, turrets and and a bell tower. The internal courtyard reveals a modern façade of punctured openings of aluminium glazed windows set behind a veil of terracotta rainscreen cladding. The building has been delicately landscaped to soften the imposing scale and make it a desirable place to live.

该建筑物已根据建筑物规例第L1B及L2B部评定。为了改善建筑物的环境性能，人们采取了各种可持续的措施。这些设备包括高效冷凝锅炉、光伏面板系统、LED照明、为个人能源消耗提供的仪表以及公共照明的PIR传感器。主要安装的低到零碳技术(LZC)是光电池(45 NO)。发电能力为235 W/p)，现场发电能力为10.58千瓦-最大负荷。这相当于8，898.75夸赫尔的替代电力(在典型的850小时季节)，每年减少5，106公斤二氧化碳，或减少5.79%。预测的年二氧化碳排放量为88，118.48kg/年，能源需求为459，697.65千瓦/年。目前还没有实际的建筑物使用数字，因为该项目是最近才启用的。这些单位的气密性测试显示，其性能水平超过了L部分的要求。

The Building has been assessed under Part L1B and L2B of the building regulations. A variety of sustainable measures have been adopted to improve the environmental performance of the building. These include an high efficiency condensing boiler, photovoltaic panel system, , LED lighting, meter provision for individual energy source consumption and PIR sensors to communal lighting. The primary Low to Zero Carbon Technology (LZC) technology installed are Photovoltaics (45 no. panels of 235w/p capacity) contributing to an on-site generating capacity of 10.58 kWe maximum load. This equates to 8,898.75 kWHRs of displaced electricity (for a typical 850 hour season), resulting a CO2 reduction of 5,106 kGCO2 per annum or 5.79% for the site. The predicted annual C02 emissions is 88,118.48 Kg C02/Yr and the energy demand is 459,697.65 KW Hrs/Yr. The actual building usage figures are currently unavailable as the project was only recently  commissioned. The air tightness tests of the flats demonstrated performance levels in excess of Part L requirements.
