活景观

Living landscape

设计这座36层、17.178平方米的住宅楼的主要概念是多层建筑对新加坡“花园城”所固有的自然景观的回应。这一景观概念通过四大细节被整合到设计中：立面的清晰度，通过它的细节创造出各种有机的纹理和图案；通过大面积的琉璃区、海湾窗户和双高阳台，城市的广阔景色成为可能；采用室内“生活景观”的概念设计两种公寓类型，并通过开放式框架支撑的高耸结构，引入透明度和与地面花园的连通性。

The primary concept for the design of the 36 storey, 17.178 m² residential tower is a multi-layered architectural response to the natural landscape inherent to the ‘Garden City’ of Singapore. This landscape concept is integrated into the design by means of four large details: the articulation of the facade, which through its detailing creates various organic textures and patterns; expansive views across the city made possible by large glazed areas, bay windows and double-height balconies; the interior ‘living landscape’ concept adopted for the design of the two apartment types and the introduction of transparency and connectivity to the ground level gardens by means of a raised structure supported by an open framework.

纹理正面

Textured facade

Ardmore住宅的立面是从微观设计特征出发的，它将海湾窗户和阳台等结构元素交织成一条连续线。每四层楼都会出现立面图案，而圆形玻璃则会创造没有立柱的角落，在视觉上将内部空间与外部阳台融合在一起。交织在一起的线条和表面包裹着公寓，无缝地融入了遮阳，同时也确保了公寓的内部品质和建筑的外观形成了一个统一的整体。从远处看，从不同的角度看，这座塔似乎采用了截然不同的等高线，而从近处看，立面的混凝土面板上的各种开口影响了你在建筑物周围移动时的一种有机变异和过渡的感觉。

The facade of the Ardmore Residence is derived from micro-design features which interweave structural elements, such as bay windows and balconies into one continuous line. The façade pattern is repeated for every four storeys of the building, whilst rounded glass creates column-free corners, visually merging the internal spaces with the external balconies. Intertwining lines and surfaces wrap the apartments, seamlessly incorporating sun screening, whilst also ensuring that the inner qualities of the apartments and the outer appearance of the building together form a unified whole. From a distance the tower appears to adopt vastly divergent contours when viewed from different perspectives, whilst from close by the various openings in the concrete panels of the facade affect a sense of organic mutation and transition as you move around the building.

内外景观

Inside-outside landscape

Ardmore住宅中的公寓体现了“生活景观”的理念。功能空间被重新定义并扩展到生活景观概念中，为居住者提供了多种功能的可能性。室内-室外的生活体验是通过包括大窗户和双高度阳台在所有的住宅。这些元素使整个新加坡城市的视野更加多样化，而巨大的垂直阳台更抵消了更为私人的室内空间的水平性。随着露台空间融入到日常的内部生活场景中，生活景观促进了室内和外部空间之间的无缝。海湾窗户的外观特征创造了自然遮阳玻璃，以尽量减少热量，并提供受欢迎的机会种植的居民。

The apartments in the Ardmore Residence embody the idea of a ‘living landscape’. Functional spaces are redefined and extended into the living landscape concept, offering the possibility for versatile functionality for the occupants. An indoor-outdoor living experience is achieved through the inclusion of large windows and double height balconies in all of the residences. These elements enable a wide variety of views across Singapore City, while the large vertical balconies additionally offset the horizontality of the more private interior spaces. With the terrace spaces integrated into every-day internal living scenarios, the living landscape promotes seamlessness between interior and exterior spaces. Bay window features on the façade create natural shading on the glass to minimize heat gain and provide welcome opportunity for planting by the residents.

为58套单独公寓选择的平面图旨在增加日光，充分利用全景景观，从而在住宅中营造一种宽敞的气氛。这一平面图是基于对文艺复兴别墅原型的分析-以及在空间之间的“荣誉球场”的概念，这使得同一栋房子的不同部分之间有了视觉联系。在Ardmore住宅的设计中，这一概念被采纳和翻译，以便在公寓内的特定区域之间建立视觉联系。这一概念进一步增加了卧室的隐私，并增加了一个四维方面的布局，因为双翼可以分开运作，服务不同的需要，并在一天中的不同时间活跃。

The floor plan chosen for the 58 individual apartments is designed to increase the amount of daylight and take full advantage of the panoramic views, thereby creating an atmosphere of spaciousness in the dwellings. This floor plan is based on an analysis of Renaissance villa prototypes – and the concept of a “cours d’honneur” as in between space which enable visual links between different parts of one and the same house. In the design for the Ardmore Residence this concept is appropriated and translated in order to allow for visual interconnection between specific areas within the apartments. This concept furthermore increases privacy for sleeping rooms and adds a four-dimensional aspect to the layout, as both wings can operate separately, service different needs and be active at different times of the day.

连续景观

Continuous landscape

Ardmore住宅的第一层位于大楼第八层。因此，在高塔底部引入了一个开放的框架，使整个地面景观具有充分的连通性和透明度，同时组织共享的设施。虽然新加坡的建筑法规规定了高层建筑的高度和面积，但对于居住者来说，景观也是必不可少的。因此，Ardmore住宅的提升设计整合了这些参数，以充分利用其潜力，优化设计理念，同时为居住者创造一个完整的生活和休闲景观。

The first residential level of the Ardmore Residence is located on the eighth storey of the building. An open framework is therefore introduced at the base of the raised tower which enables full connectivity and transparency across the ground level landscaping, while simultaneously organising the shared amenity facilities. Whilst building regulations in Singapore specify both the height and area of high-rise buildings, views are also deemed to be essential for the occupants. The raised design of the Ardmore Residence therefore integrally incorporates these set parameters to take full advantage of the potential they afford to optimise the design concept and simultaneously create a fully integrated living and leisure landscape for its occupants.
