架构师提供的文本描述。10年前，Bennetts Associates建筑事务所(Bennetts Associates Architect)在克莱肯威尔(Clerkenwell)重振了一批多余的工业建筑，成立了伦敦办事处。10年后，这一做法已经完成了开发的最后阶段，该项目扩展到邻近的一处房产-圣约翰街326号的一家

Text description provided by the architects. A decade after Bennetts Associates Architects revitalised a group of redundant industrial buildings in Clerkenwell to form its London office, the practice has completed the final phase in the development of its premises by extending into the neighbouring property - a former restaurant at 326 St John Street.

新的单层工作室，现在被称为‘326楼下’，是一个灵活的工作空间，餐厅，模型制作车间，CRIT房间和活动空间。326位于办公室内一个关键的流通区域，鼓励两侧工作空间之间的互动。当代的软家具和定制细木工给出了一个清新和色彩鲜明的对立面的坚固性质的内部，而天窗充满了自然光的空间。

The new single storey studio, now known as ‘326 Downstairs’, is a flexible workspace, dining area, model making workshop, crit room and event space. 326 sits at a pivotal circulation area within the office, encouraging interaction between the workspaces that are located on either side. Contemporary soft furnishings and bespoke joinery give a crisp and colourful counterpoint to the rugged character of the interior, whilst a skylight floods the space with natural light.

Bennetts Associates创始董事Rab Bennetts说，

Rab Bennetts, Founding Director of Bennetts Associates said,

“326号在楼下完成是一个伟大的方式，以纪念实践25周年。它使我们能够把过去26年在商业项目中发展出来的想法带到我们自己的办公室，现在三分之一以上的办公室被分配给正式工作空间以外的其他用途。326已成为创意、互动和讨论的中心，对我们的工作习惯和设计过程产生了积极影响。“

“The completion of 326 Downstairs is a fantastic way to mark the practice’s 25th anniversary. It has enabled us to bring to our own office, ideas that we have developed in commercial projects over the last 26 years, with over a third of the office now allocated to uses other than formal workspace. 326 has already become a hub for creativity, interaction and discourse, affecting a positive change in our working habits and design process.”

Bennetts Associates的伦敦办事处吸取了该公司最大的办公项目的经验教训，包括一系列精心连接的空间，提供多样化、一瞥、庭院景观、纹理、颜色和历史层。如此广泛的小物业空间所提供的灵活性和刺激，将组织联系在一起，并激励着所有参观和使用该建筑的人。

Taking lessons from the practice’s largest office projects, Bennetts Associates’ London office comprises a sequence of carefully connected spaces, offering variety, glimpses, courtyard views, textures, colours and layers of history. The flexibility and stimulus provided by such a wide range of spaces within a small property binds the organisation together and inspires all who visit and use the building.

重建的第一期工程已於二零零二年完成，其中包括翻新一间前印刷厂及十八世纪的谷仓。周围是格鲁吉亚和维多利亚早期的梯田，已完成的办公室的场地有一个不规则的边界，现有的建筑物面对一个小鹅卵石庭院。Bennetts Associates办公室的主要入口是通过Rawstorne Place上的一堵现存的墙-在网站的东面-允许庭院保持原来的规模和氛围。

The first phase of the redevelopment was completed in 2002, involving the retrofit of a former printworks and 18th Century barn. Hemmed in by Georgian and early Victorian terraces, the site of the completed office has an irregular boundary, with the existing buildings facing a small cobbled courtyard. The main entrance to Bennetts Associates’ office is through an existing wall on Rawstorne Place – to the east of the site - allowing the courtyard to retain its original dimensions and atmosphere.

在院子的南侧，坐落着一个小的前谷仓，这是一个独特的幸存者，当时牲畜在前往附近的历史悠久的史密斯菲尔德市场的路上需要一个休息的地方。尽管谷仓几近倒塌，但它被修复成了Bennetts Associates办公室的“枢纽”，它崎岖的砖瓦结构在每一次机会面前都能看到。

On the south side of the courtyard sits the small former barn, a unique survivor from the days when livestock required a resting place on their way to the nearby historic Smithfield Market. Although the barn was in a state of near collapse, it was restored to form the ‘hub’ of Bennetts Associates’ office, with its rugged brickwork exposed to view at every opportunity.

以前在北方的印刷厂曾被用作铸造金属字的铸造厂，最近又被用作商业打印机的房舍，该印刷厂的前厅曾设在326处。

The former printworks to the north was once used as a foundry for cast metal lettering and more recently as the premises of a commercial printer, whose front office was once located at 326.

在谷仓和边界墙之间是一个新建的两层的工作室空间，取代了一些无法修复的外围建筑。通过在谷仓中放置蜂窝式会议室，整个印刷厂和新扩建部分都专门用于开放式工作室，并灵活地安排了可以从地板上服务的工作站。

Between the barn and the boundary wall is a new-build, two-storey studio space, replacing some outbuildings that were beyond repair. By placing the cellular meeting rooms in the barn, the whole of the printworks and the new extension are devoted to open plan studios, with a flexible arrangement of workstations that can be serviced from the floor.

该办公室的重新开发是Bennetts Associates在可持续性方面的广泛工作的典范。让多余的建筑重新使用是一项关键的经济原则，但建筑设计也在环境层面展示了如何减少不同建筑形式的碳排放。这包括减少能源消耗的一系列措施，包括新建筑单元的热质量、自然通风、高绝缘值、太阳能控制和避免空调。

The office redevelopment is an exemplar for Bennetts Associates’ extensive work on sustainability. Bringing redundant buildings back into re-use is a key economic principle, but the architectural design also demonstrates at an environmental level how to reduce carbon emissions across disparate forms of construction. This includes a series of measures to reduce energy consumption, including thermal mass in the new build element, natural ventilation, high insulation values, solar control and the avoidance of air conditioning.

办公室的新建筑元素支撑着广泛的绿色屋顶。除了他们的环保证书外，这些设施还为使用者和邻居提供了绿色的景观，作为环绕建筑物三面的花园的视觉延伸。

The new-build elements of the office support extensive green roofs. In addition to their environmental credentials, these provide a green outlook for users and neighbours as a visual extension to the gardens which enclose three sides of the building.

扩展到创建326楼下提供了一个更慷慨的密度超过11平方米的每个工作空间(英国文化协会办公室建议8-13平方米)，这与良好的室内照明，有助于一个愉快的工作环境整个工作室空间。

The extension to create 326 Downstairs provides a more generous density of over 11m2 per workspace (the British Council for Offices recommends 8-13m2), which together with good quality daylight to internal spaces, contributes to a pleasant working environment throughout studio spaces.
