Text description provided by the architects. Christ & Gantenbein have realised a new housing and a workshop building for Wohn- Werk, an institution for handicapped people based in Basel, a project for which the office had won the competition in 2003. The institution had invited for the competition, as a renovation of the existing buildings was not possible due to their structural deficits.

WohnWerk的两栋新房、一栋住房和一栋厂房，旨在为该地区的使用提出新的概念，并帮助将其纳入邻近地区的结构。这个院子里的旧住宅已经被一座五层高的街道建筑所取代，现在它代表了该机构面向街道的新面貌。庭院周围的建筑缺口被关闭，同时还创建了一个大门，邀请进入新布置的露台，并通向车间。居民现在与周围环境有着直接的关系，同时也更多地被公众所理解。

The two new houses for WohnWerk, one housing building and one workshop building, aim for a new concept of usage of the area and help to integrate it into the structure of the neighbourhood. The former housing building in the courtyard has been replaced by a five-floor construction on Missionsstrasse and it now represents the institution’s new face towards the street. The building gap around the courtyard is closed and at the same time a gate is created, inviting into the newly arranged patio and leading to the workshops. The inhabitants are now in a direct relation with their surroundings and are at the same time more included in the perception of the public.

由于其不同的平面图，住房建筑为所有居民提供单独的房间。四名居民组成一个居住群体，他们的照料者在一楼，共用一个社区客厅，厨房和灌木丛。建筑物内部的个性，为每个居民提供一个私人住宅，在外面也显示：房子的窗户有不同的形式，这种小的变化使外观变得活泼起来。粗糙的灰泥上的银白色也通过反射日光变化的光泽和阴影来增强外墙的生命力。

Thanks to its varied floor plans the housing building provides individual rooms for all inhabitants. Four inhabitants each form a residential group with their carer on one floor, sharing a community living room, kitchen and loggia. The building’s individuality inside, that offers a private home to each resident, also shows on the outside: The windows of the house have different formats and this small variation enlivens the façade. The silvery colour on the rough plaster also reinforces the vitality of the façade by reflecting the daylight’s changing shimmer and shades.

一条通道正从街道通往院子，通往120名残疾人工作的新厂房。广泛的，周围的玻璃结构已经被扭曲，以适应稀缺的空间，它很好地融入了庭院周围的现有房屋。因此，该建筑获得了一个明确的表达，满足了高度功能要求的平面图，同时仍然使非常特殊的房间情况。慷慨的玻璃增加了特定的气氛，设置内部和外部的直接背景。车间里覆盖着一层细密的银质石膏，突出了这两座建筑的紧密和团结。

A passage is leading from the street into the courtyard and to the new workshop building, where 120 handicapped people work. The extensive, all around glazed structure has been distorted in order to fit into the scarce space available and it integrates well into the existing houses around the courtyard. As a consequence the building gains an unmistakable expression, meeting highly functional demands of the floor plan and at the same time still enabling very special room situations. The generous glazing adds to the specific atmosphere by setting interior and exterior into a direct context. The workshop has been clad with a fine-grained, also silvery plaster which underlines the closeness and togetherness of the two buildings.

该地区被规划为一个活跃而又富有同情心的城市，在这个城市里，邻居和居民聚集在一起。一家位于一楼、面向街道的公共咖啡馆邀请城市小区开会，新设计的外部环境也可供邻里使用。这一新创造的局面支持了WohnWerk将残疾人融入日常、普通生活条件的目标。由于私人捐款和联邦政府的捐助，这个耗资2000万瑞士法郎的项目可以实现。

The area has been planned as a lively and sympathetic location in the city where neighbours and inhabitants come together. A public café on the ground floor and facing the street invites the urban quarter for a meeting and the newly designed exterior surroundings are also usable for the neighbourhood. This newly created situation supports the aim of WohnWerk to integrate handicapped people in everyday, ordinary living conditions. The project costing 20 million Swiss Francs could be realized thanks to private donations and to the contribution of the federal government.
