Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands已经完成了10东路，这是一个混合用途的开发项目，位于东伦敦旧街环形交叉路口以北。该项目由火箭投资公司开发，面积397，000平方英尺，包括一家酒店和办公室，以及预售给昆坦庄园的学生公寓。Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands已经开始为这个快速崛起的伦敦地区建立一个有凝聚力的城市方言，其中包含了不同质量和不同建筑风格的建筑。

Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands has completed 10 East Road, a mixed-use development north of Old Street roundabout in East London. Developed by Rocket Investments, the 397,000 sq ft scheme includes a hotel and offices, together with student apartments forward-sold to Quintain Estates. Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands has set out to establish a cohesive urban vernacular for this fast emerging area of London, which contains buildings of varying quality and disparate architectural styles.

10东路是一个强大的集群精细详细，英俊的建筑，以回应周围城市的不同规模的混合。它符合“长寿、宽松”的实践理念，是一种柔性建筑的城市干预，具有坚固的饰面、合适的材料和灵活的平面图。该项目对该地区支离破碎的城市结构进行了至关重要的修复，解决了地面上的街道问题，增加了明确的前门用途，并创建了一条新的步行线。

10 East Road is a robust cluster of finely detailed, handsome buildings that respond to the varying scale of the surrounding urban mix. In-keeping with the practice’s philosophy of ‘Long Life, Loose Fit’, it is an urban intervention of flexible buildings, with stout finishes, appropriate materials and flexible floor plans. The project makes a crucial repair to the fragmented urban fabric of the area by addressing the street at ground level, adding clearly articulated front door uses and creating a new pedestrian route.

这幅旧址曾被三幢过时的、规模不大的半工业楼宇占用，位于东路与城市路的交汇处。西边是摩尔菲尔德保护区，这是一批漂亮的兵马俑建筑，利夫舒茨·戴维森·桑德兰(Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands)将此视为一个重要的先例。新计划并没有以单一的整体形式将土地填塞，而是以两块市区为单位，由一条新的行人街道分隔开来，以连接东面的住宅区。这些街区被设计成一系列层叠的不同高度的垂直塔楼，它们被解读为一群建筑，创造了一条视觉上有趣的天际线，并提供了来自房间和走廊的意想不到的框架景观。

The site, which was formerly occupied by three outdated and out-of-scale semi-industrial buildings, is located at the convergence of East Road and City Road. To the west sits the Moorfields Conservation Area, a collection of handsome terracotta buildings, which Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands took as an important precedent. Rather than filling the site with a single monolithic form, the new scheme is laid out as two urban blocks, separated by a new pedestrian street that creates a connection to the residential area to the east. The blocks are articulated as a series of stacked vertical towers of varying heights that read as a cluster of buildings, creating a visually interesting skyline and offering unexpected framed views from the rooms and corridors.

整个场地的用途分布是根据具体情况而定的；商业办公室和旅馆位于最南端，最接近旧街的商业喧嚣，学生宿舍被编织到北部的住宅区。所有的建筑物都位于人行道的边缘，商店和社区使用的空间都位于街道的正面。住宅建筑后面的庭院为学生提供了户外放松的空间，并使学生能够与周围的街道进行视觉连接。

The distribution of uses across the site responds to context; the commercial office and hotel are located to the south, closest to the commercial bustle of Old Street, with the student accommodation woven into the residential area to the north. The buildings all sit at the pavement edge and spaces for shops and community uses line the frontage at street level. A landscaped courtyard behind the residential building provides spaces for students to relax outdoors and allows a visual connection to the surrounding streets.

该方案采用了西面雄伟的皇厅的视觉暗示，它紧贴着城市道路的曲线，只能从大多数角度斜看，从而改善了建筑整体质量的外观。10东路是以同样的方式夸大道路的微妙曲线，逐渐向过路人展示自己。底层的强烈清晰度保留了人类的规模，创造了沿着传统街道移动的体验，有着小的戏剧、视野和一瞥。选择外观处理创造了各种不同的建筑用途；这座办公室的立面与12层高的酒店区别开来，酒店周围三面都是白色的、抛光的预制混凝土鳍，形成了正式的公民形象；这座17层楼高的学生建筑的西面有一个“格栅”特征，它与办公大楼外墙相呼应，并确保了两栋建筑之间的建筑连接。

The scheme takes visual cues from the imposing Imperial Hall to the west, which hugs the curve of City Road, being visible only obliquely from most viewpoints, which ameliorates the appearance of the overall mass of the building. 10 East Road is composed to exaggerate the subtle curve of the road in the same way, gradually revealing itself to the passer-by. Strong articulation at ground floor level retains the human scale and creates the experience of moving along a traditional street, with its small dramas, vistas and glimpsed views. The selection of façade treatments creates variety and articulates the buildings’ different uses; the office facade is distinguished from the 12-storey hotel that wraps around it on three sides by its white polished pre-cast concrete fins that establish a formal, civic presence; portions of the 17-storey student building’s western façade have a ‘grille’ feature which echoes the office building façade and ensures an architectural connection between the two buildings.

学生住宿和酒店的正面都是砖块，这是当地的材料。各种装置-例如不同颜色的迫击炮和砖块-被用来巧妙地创造建筑物正面的深度和变化，并提高建筑物各部分的可识别性。这个发音已经通过主题进行到开窗。在酒店和学生住宅可以直接看到其他建筑的地方，开窗是分层的。根据邻近建筑物的高度，选择了不同的窗口尺寸，而在隐私问题存在的南立面上，窗户倾斜地放置在突出的东方海湾中。办公室西面一层至三层的三层投影窗口盒与保留的三冠式公共住宅建立了视觉对话。

The student accommodation and hotel facades are clad in brick, the vernacular material of the area. Various devices – such as different coloured mortars and brick stocks - have been used to subtly create depth and variation in the facades and enhance recognisability for the various parts of the buildings. This articulation has been carried through thematically to the fenestration. Where the hotel and student residences look directly on to other buildings, the fenestration is stratified. Different window sizes were chosen in response to the height of neighbouring buildings, while on the southern façade, where privacy is an issue, windows are placed obliquely in projecting oriel bays. Triple-height projecting window boxes on the first to third floors of the office’s western façade set up a visual dialogue with the retained Three Crowns public house.
