The Generation Gain house, which is a redesigned and renovation project recently completed by Architectural Farm in Ireland, was created with a unique family structure in mind. You see, rather than accommodating the average family consisting of two parents and a few children, this home was built specifically for a family that spans three different generations aiming to live together under one roof!

“一代增益屋”是爱尔兰建筑农场最近完成的一项重新设计和翻新的项目，它的创建考虑到了独特的家庭结构。你看，这所房子不是为了照顾由双亲和几个孩子组成的普通家庭，而是专门为一个跨越三代人的家庭而建的，目的是在一个屋檐下共同生活！

This project was one of renovation and extension in its natural. To increase available space, an addition was made to the rear of a semi-detached house from the 1930s. The space was redesigned to house a 3-generation family that includes several elderly individuals and several children, so its structure was reframed and redone with their needs in mind.

这是一项自然改造和扩建的工程。为了增加可用的空间，从20世纪30年代开始，在一座半独立的房子的后部增加了一个额外的空间。这个空间被重新设计成一个包含几个老人和几个孩子的三代家庭，因此它的结构被重新设计和重新设计，并考虑到他们的需求。

One of the first things designer noticed upon visiting the original house was how incredibly under-utilized many of the ground floor rooms were. This was because of poor connection areas between rooms, so opening up the areas between spaces, particularly as one moves through the house towards the south-facing garden, was one of the first things to be addressed.

设计师在参观原来的房子时注意到的第一件事之一是，许多底层的房间是多么的没有得到充分的利用。这是因为房间之间的连接区域很差，所以开放空间之间的区域，特别是当一个人穿过房子走向朝南的花园时，是首先要解决的问题之一。

Sleeping and bathroom spaces were also quite heavily re-evaluated in their design and structure. Builders aimed to create a semi-independent area for the family’s older generations in order to give them privacy but keep them from feeling secluded or unable to seek assistance if needed.

在设计和结构上，睡眠和浴室空间也受到了很大的重新评估。建筑商的目标是为这个家庭的老一代建立一个半独立的区域，以便给他们隐私，但不让他们感到与世隔绝，或者在需要的时候无法寻求帮助。

Additionally, a new family room was added to the back of the house with the intention of providing all three of the family’s generations with a large and comfortable space to share, socialize, and engage with each other in. Besides just engaging with each other, this space was also designed to create increased interaction with the house’s garden thanks to its open concept doors.

此外，在房子后面增加了一个新的家庭空间，目的是为全家的三代人提供一个大而舒适的空间，供他们分享、社交和相互接触。除了相互吸引之外，这个空间也被设计成与房子的花园创造更多的互动，这要归功于它开放的概念门。

Perhaps the biggest reconfiguration that happened on the ground level of the home was the removal of most internal partitions that stood in the original house. The only structured partition that was re-inserted after the addition was made to the back near the garden was one closer to the front of the home. This was designed to create an independent room that might be used a spare bedroom without interrupting the flow elsewhere on that level.

可能发生在房屋底层的最大的重新配置是移除位于原来房屋中的大多数内部分区。唯一的结构分区，是重新插入后，加法是在后面的花园附近是一个更靠近前面的家。这是为了创造一个独立的房间，可以使用一个备用的卧室，而不中断该水平的其他地方的流动。

Besides the structural changes, several smaller details or specific spaces were included in the new design in order to give the family’s generations various contexts and spaces to spend time with each other in. These spots include the covered back patio that the living room opens onto, a comfortably sprawling window seat that gets a lot of sunlight, and a heated stove area that’s perfect for reading together during the winter.

除了结构上的变化外，新设计还包括了一些较小的细节或特定空间，以便给家族的后代提供不同的环境和空间，让他们彼此在一起。这些景点包括客厅打开的有盖的后露台，一个阳光充足的舒舒服服的窗户座椅，以及一个冬季一起阅读的加热炉灶。

Just like the family itself, this unique home harmoniously blends older aspects of the house with seamless additions and new pieces, creating a space that’s cohesive, comfortable, and wonderful.

就像家庭本身，这个独特的家和谐地融合了老房子的各个方面和无缝的增加和新的部分，创造了一个凝聚力，舒适和美妙的空间。
