Dutch architecture studio BETA has designed a mini-apartment building in Amsterdam for a multi-generational family.

荷兰建筑工作室Beta设计了一个小型公寓，在阿姆斯特丹建立了一个多代家庭。

Contemplating care between generations, a family comprising of two households decides to build a house together. While the younger couple already lives in the city, the grandparents live in the countryside and are keen to move back to the proximity of urban amenities.

考虑到几代人之间的照顾，一个由两个家庭组成的家庭决定一起建造一所房子。虽然这对年轻夫妇已经住在城市里，但祖父母住在农村，他们渴望搬回邻近城市的地方。

Adapting With Time For this mini-apartment building a concept was devised capable of accommodating changing spatial demands over time. The elderly couple occupies the top apartment with generous views across the cityscape. This apartment has an elevator and level floors, making it very suitable for the elderly. The bottom apartment has an office and a direct relationship with the garden, making it ideal for a working family with young children.

随着时间的推移，这个迷你公寓楼设计了一个概念，能够适应不断变化的空间需求。这对老年夫妇住在顶层公寓，可以俯瞰整个城市景观。这套公寓有电梯和楼层，非常适合老年人使用。底层的公寓有一间办公室，与花园有着直接的关系，这使它成为一个有年幼孩子的工作家庭的理想选择。

Instead of reducing vertical circulation to a necessity, it occupies the heart of the building. Omnipresent as a sculptural element in the lower apartment, the system gradually transforms into a series of voids higher up in the building. This central access system allows a ‘surplus floor’ to be combined with either apartment. Initially used as a space for guests for the topmost apartment, this space can be easily added to the lower apartment through a few elementary technical amendments.

它不需要减少垂直循环，而是占据了建筑物的中心。作为一种雕塑元素无所不在的低层公寓，系统逐渐转变为一系列的空隙在更高的建筑。这种中央接入系统允许“多余的楼层”与任何一套公寓合并。最初用作最顶层公寓的客人空间，通过一些基本的技术改进，这个空间可以很容易地添加到较低的公寓中。

Open Vs. Enclosed As though a clair-obscur, the gradient in the building’s plan is emphasized in the building’s contrasting façades. The Northern façade is mostly closed to reduce thermal loss and reduce sound exposure along the busy street. Towards the South the building opens up completely, maximizing passive solar gain and the connection with the outdoors. In between the two contrary façades, the building’s plan undergoes a gradual transformation, from compartmentalized in the North, to open-plan and structured with free-form elements towards the South. Here the building is concluded with an informal filter-like balcony layer.

开战。建筑平面图中的渐变被强调在建筑的对比立面上，就像一个密闭的建筑。北面大部分是封闭的，以减少热损失和减少噪音暴露在繁忙的街道。朝南，建筑物完全开放，最大限度地利用被动太阳能和与户外的联系。在两个相反的立面之间，建筑物的计划经历了一个渐进的转变，从北方的分隔，到开放的计划，并以自由形式的元素向南方结构。在这里，建筑物的最后是一个非正式的过滤器一样的阳台层。

Material and Composition In a near elementary detailing, the building communicates its composition and materials communicate their purpose. Hence the Southern façade is clad only with minimal triple glazing window frames to underline the building’s relationship with the outdoors. The remaining structural walls are composed of large format concrete masonry, wrapped in high-grade thermal insulation. Between these walls, bare concrete slabs span 8 meters and offer a clear plane on which warmer timber elements define spatial moments. Closed and bare towards the North, light and fragile towards the South, the building is a composition of contrasts.

材料和构筑物在一个近乎基本的细节上，建筑传达了它的组成，材料传达了它们的目的。因此，南面只有最小的三层玻璃窗框，以强调建筑物与户外的关系。其余的结构墙是由大型混凝土砌体组成，用高级保温材料包裹.在这些墙之间，裸露的混凝土板横跨8米，提供了一个清晰的平面，温暖的木材元素在上面定义空间矩。朝北封闭光秃秃，朝南轻而脆弱，这座建筑是由反差构成的。
