架构师提供的文本描述。我们的客户已经拥有和工作了十多年，并希望现代化的建筑物。然而，他们希望保留现有建筑物的原则，创造一个新的、可持续的小型社区。他们的建议是拆除现有的工作室，重建一个拥有更好设施的艺术家工作室，以及一个单独的两居室，所有这些都在相同的脚印范围内。

Text description provided by the architects. Our clients had owned and worked on the site for over a decade and wanted to modernise the buildings. However, they wanted to retain the principles of the existing buildings, to create a new and sustainable small community. The proposal was to knock down the existing studio, and rebuild an artist’s studio with better facilities, as well as a separate two bedroom house all within the same footprint.

工作室的概念是一个闪闪发亮的金属盒子，作为对一个工业棚的驯化的重新解释。工业材料反映了工作室的工作性质，而这被尽可能少的细节所抵消，以使外壳具有国内质量和规模。

The concept for the studio is for a shiny metal box, as a domesticated re-interpretation of an industrial shed. The industrial material reflects the working nature of the studio, while this is offset by minimal detailing to give the shell a domestic quality and scale.

房子的主要体积被连接成一个黑色的橡胶包装箱，触觉和无缝，与周围杂乱无章的绿色植物形成鲜明的对比。一堵墙围绕着它作为一个单独的元素，形成屋顶灯到大厅和楼梯。在这堵墙前种植会使房子看起来像一堵“绿色墙”，几乎完全隐藏在邻居的视线之外。

The main volume of the house is articulated as a black rubber clad box, tactile and seamless, in sharp contrast to the rambling greenery of the surrounding sites. A wall wraps around this as a separate element, forming rooflights to the hall and stair. Planting in front of this wall will give the appearance of a ’green wall’ almost entirely hiding the house from the view of neighbours.

这座房子被组织成一系列内化的体验，在哈克尼中心的喧嚣中形成了一种私人的隐退。窗户很少，大部分的日光和阳光来自屋顶灯和内部庭院。这创造了一个内省的房子，给居民完全的隐私，并防止任何俯瞰附近的房产。

The house is organised as a series of internalised experiences, that create a private retreat from the bustle of its Hackney Central location. There are few windows, and most daylight and sunlight is received from roof lights and the internal courtyard. This creates an introspective house giving complete privacy for the inhabitants, and preventing any overlooking to neighbouring properties.

两幢楼宇之间有一个低遮蔽露台，用作一楼住宅单位的第二居住空间，而在对外看时，则可为两幢楼宇提供一个视觉上的休息空间。

A low sheltered terrace between the two buildings functions as a secondary living space to the residential unit at ground floor, while providing a visual break between the two buildings when viewed externally.
