Along the bustling city streets of Bucharest, Romania, a number of different homes and dwellings in various architectural styles can be found, depending on the neighbourhood. Along Occidentului Street, which is fairly typical for the city, one might see a combination of villas, post-war structures, or wagon-houses that have stood for many years.

在罗马尼亚布加勒斯特熙熙攘攘的城市街道上，可以找到一些不同建筑风格的房屋和住宅，这取决于周围的环境。在西方城市的典型街道，人们可能会看到别墅，战后的建筑，或旅行车，多年来一直存在。

Recently, some local designers aimed to build a new apartment building but, rather than letting it stick out and attract attention, they used shocking precision to help it blend in perfectly with the more traditional buildings around it! To the trained eye it might look a little more contemporary and have a bit less wear and tear, but overall it suits the street shockingly well.

最近，一些当地的设计师打算建造一座新的公寓楼，但是他们没有让它突出并吸引人们的注意，而是用惊人的精确性来帮助它与周围更传统的建筑完美地融合在一起！在受过训练的人看来，它看起来更现代，磨损也更少，但总的来说，它非常适合街道。

The apartment building at Occidentului 40 was created by ADNBA using a technique that helped them compose the facade and its interior apartments from blocks, as thought they’ve been stacked. Rather than solely taking into consideration how their own finished product will look, the design team decided to account for the context around their project as well.

Ooccidentului 40的公寓楼是由ADNBA利用一种技术来建造的，这种技术可以帮助他们把门面和内部的公寓从街区里整理出来，就像他们被堆放的一样。而不是仅仅考虑到他们自己的成品将如何看，设计团队决定考虑周围的环境以及他们的项目。

By this, we mean that they attempted to make their new building blend and mesh with the rest of the street, looking similarly to the buildings that are already there so that it doesn’t interrupt the flow and fabric of the space it was freshly built in. The level of detail that went into this goal, right down to the colour scheme, is very impressive indeed.

On the inside, the apartments are calm, wooden, and comfortable with all kinds of amenities typical of a modern, updated rental space. The goal wasn’t to actually create a home that seemed old or outdated in its practicality, but rather simply to match the aesthetic and style of the building faces in the local area in a way that is smooth and cohesive.

在内部，公寓是平静的，木制的，舒适的各种设施，典型的现代化，更新的租赁空间。这样做的目的并不是要创造一个在实用性上显得陈旧或过时的住宅，而是要以一种流畅和有凝聚力的方式，与当地建筑所面临的美学和风格相匹配。
