架构师提供的文本描述。位于洛斯阿尔托斯市中心，这个2500平方英尺的适应性再利用项目的亮点是引入了一个新的外墙，使大约1950年的建筑从一个封闭的建筑变成一个邀请社区进入空间的环境。

Text description provided by the architects. Located in downtown Los Altos, the highlight of this 2,500 square foot adaptive re-use project is the introduction of a new façade that enables the circa 1950’s building to morph from an enclosed structure into an environment that invites the community into the space.

这一转变实际上是通过用一个双高的、从地板到天花板的窗口墙来代替整个前立面，这种墙可以根据用户的需要提高或降低。

The transformation was achieved by essentially replacing the entire front façade with a double-height, floor-to-ceiling window wall that can be raised or lowered depending upon the needs of the user.

窗墙的操作方式是：用踏板打开安全机构，然后转动手轮，启动一系列齿轮和滑轮，打开16英尺宽10英尺重的两千磅重的窗墙。当窗户被关闭时，参观商店的人通过一个10英尺高的枢轴门进入。

The window wall is operated by engaging a pedal—to unlock the safety mechanism— then turning a hand wheel which activates a series of gears and pulleys that opens the sixteen-foot by ten-foot, counterweighted two-thousand pound window wall. When the window wall is closed, visitors to the shop enter through a ten-foot-tall pivot door.

除了正面外，建筑物的其他改变还包括将屋顶提高半层，以创造一个更均匀的内部体积，以及安装天窗，以带来更多的自然光线。这座建筑最近被用作SFMoMA项目Los Altos的临时场外地点之一。

In addition to the front façade, other changes to the building included raising the roof by half-of-one story to create a better proportioned interior volume, and installing skylights to bring in more natural light. The building most recently served as one of the temporary off-site locations for SF MoMA’s Project Los Altos.

除了窗户墙的引入，内部相对没有受到影响，给未来的租户留下了尽可能灵活的空间。

Beyond the introduction of the window wall, the interior was relatively untouched, leaving the space as flexible as possible for its future tenant.
