We love it when designers flex their creative muscles in the transformation of spaces from one use to another. New and shiny is great, but there’s always something uniquely compelling and fascinating about an environment that has a history.

我们喜欢设计师在空间从一种用途到另一种用途的转变中发挥他们的创造性肌肉。新的和闪亮的是伟大的，但总有一些独特的吸引力和迷人的环境，有一个历史。

Reuse and repurposing took many forms in the case of the office for Helsinki, Finland-based creative agency, Bob the Robot by Helsinki-based interior design firm, Studio Joanna Laajisto.

在芬兰赫尔辛基的创意机构，总部位于赫尔辛基的室内设计公司-乔安娜·拉吉斯托工作室的机器人鲍勃办公室中，重用和再利用采取了多种形式。

Not only is the office space itself a former bread factory in the Kallio neighbourhood of Helsinki but much of the furniture and several of the materials are also reused.

这间办公室本身不仅是赫尔辛基卡里奥居民区的一家面包厂，而且许多家具和几种材料也被重复使用。

The brief was to transform the six-meter (almost 20 ft) high, 1,500 square-metre (16,145 sq.ft) open space into something that would feel like a private club, an inviting but exclusive place for clients and staff.

简短的是把这个6米(近20英尺)高，1500平方米(16145平方英尺)的空地改造成一个私人俱乐部，一个吸引客户和工作人员的独特场所。

And the designer and client were not thinking about an old, English private men’s club with dark-paneled walls, imposing pricey paintings and heavy leather chairs.

而这位设计师和客户并没有想到一家老式的英国私人男子俱乐部，这家俱乐部的墙壁是深色镶板的，有着昂贵的画作和厚重的皮椅。

They were thinking much more Scandinavian and democratic. Light colours, homey yet cool furniture, fluffy rugs, potted plants and lots of natural light.

他们认为斯堪的纳维亚半岛更民主。浅色，舒适而又凉爽的家具，蓬松的地毯，盆栽植物和许多自然光。

The result is a fresh and inviting open-plan office divided in to public areas, such as the lobby and café and meeting rooms.

结果是一个新鲜诱人的开放式办公室，可分为公共区域，如大堂和咖啡馆和会议室。

The private areas, meant just for employees, are at the back of the space as well as on the second-floor loft in the center. But there are no actual dedicated offices. Every space will be used flexibly, as needed.

私人区域，仅适用于员工，位于空间的后面，也位于中心的二楼阁楼上。但没有实际的专门办公室。每个空间将根据需要灵活地使用。

In keeping with the history and industrial feel and of the space – and to lower costs – Laajisto’s office sourced ‘slightly defective,’ lower-grade carrara Italian marble to use in several areas, including the stairwell and reception desk.

为了保持历史和工业的感觉，以及为了降低成本，Laajisto的办公室采购了“略有缺陷”的低级卡拉拉意大利大理石，用于包括楼梯井和接待处在内的几个领域。

Joanna Laajisto tells The Cool Hunter about the intense search for vintage designer furniture that would still carry significant value and therefore be a good investment but that would not be typical, boring office furniture.

乔安娜·拉吉斯托(Joanna Laajisto)向“酷猎人”(Cool Hunter)讲述了人们对老式设计师家具的强烈追求，这些家具仍将具有重大价值，因此是一项不错的投资，但这并不是典型的、

The resulting eclectic mix of pieces includes the cafe chairs that are vintage Artek chairs designed by Alvar Aalto and the conference room chairs that are vintage Ilmari Tapiovaara.

由此产生的折中组合包括阿尔瓦·阿尔托设计的咖啡椅、阿尔瓦·阿尔托设计的老式Artek椅子和年代久远的Ilmari Tpiovaara会议室椅子。

There are also vintage designer pieces in the lounge, including the Pastilli chair by Eero Aarnio and Marcel Brauer’s Wassily chairs.

休息室里也有古董设计师的作品，包括艾罗·奥尔尼奥的帕斯蒂利椅子和马塞尔·布劳尔的Wassily椅子。

According to Laajisto, everything that was bought new for the office was also to be of high quality so that it would be an investment for the future. “For example, the lobby Cassina chairs are new as well as the Massproductions sofas and Friends and Founders side tables,” she says.

据Laajisto说，为办公室购买的所有新东西都必须是高质量的，这样才能成为未来的投资。她说：“例如，大堂卡西纳椅子是新的，以及马萨制品沙发，朋友和奠基人的边桌，”她说。

“The interior lounge sofas and chaise lounge from Stua are also new as are the lounge meeting room sofa from Gubi and Tapiovaara lounge chairs.”

“斯塔瓦的室内休息室沙发和酒廊也是新的，古比和塔皮奥瓦拉躺椅的休息室沙发也是新的。”

The overall feel of the office is light and fresh as well as warm and inviting. With the vintage components and homey details, the previously cavernous industrial hall has been transformed into a working space that already now looks lived-in – in the best possible way. Tuija Seipell

办公室的整体感觉是轻盈的，新鲜的，温暖的，诱人的。有了老式的部件和家居的细节，以前巨大的工业大厅已经被改造成一个工作空间，现在看起来已经以最好的方式生活在这里。图伊亚·塞佩尔
