Highlever Road is a Victorian semi-detached house in West London that was completely renovated and expanded by London-based Haptic Architects.

高杆路是位于伦敦西部的维多利亚半独立式住宅，它是由伦敦的触觉设计师彻底翻修和扩建的。

The architect’s description: The intention was to form a connection between the old and the new, to juxtapose the Victorian craftsmanship and love for intricate detail with modern construction techniques and to create generosity of space and light.

建筑师的描述：意图是在新旧建筑之间形成一种联系，使维多利亚时代的工艺和爱情与现代建筑技术并列，创造空间和光的慷慨。

The new extension learns from the existing Victorian building’s architectural intent; with well-proportioned spaces, generous floor-to-ceiling heights and windows that allow plenty of light to flood the rooms. The modern extension amplifies this, creating even bigger volumes with enhanced daylight.

新的扩建借鉴了现有维多利亚式建筑的建筑意图；空间比例很好，地板到天花板的高度很高，窗户可以让充足的光线淹没房间。现代的扩展放大了这一点，用增强的日光创造了更大的体积。

The new interweaves with the old, through a continuous concrete element or ribbon, extending from one side of the house; the Victorian living room to the modern kitchen at the rear of the property, integrating fireplace, storage, seating and kitchen.In summer, the interior space extends seamlessly into the garden and connects with a garden studio.

新的与旧的交织，通过一个连续的混凝土元素或丝带，从房子的一边延伸；维多利亚式的客厅，在物业的后面的现代厨房，整合壁炉，储存，座位和厨房。夏天，室内空间无缝延伸到花园，并连接花园工作室。

We utilized a limited palette of materials and colour with oak and concrete featuring throughout the property and contrasting to the white walls and kitchen. The extension was clad with slender slats of untreated larch, which will naturally grey over time. The straight laced, vertical timber cladding to the back extension and the garden studio, gives the volumes a clear monolithic form. The untreated timber slats create a surface, which appears soft, drape-like and tactile, with a subtle three dimensionality.

我们使用的材料和颜色有限的调色板与橡木和混凝土的特点贯穿整个物业和对比白色的墙壁和厨房。延长线上覆盖着细长的板条未经处理的落叶松，随着时间的推移，自然会变成灰色。直花边，垂直的木材包覆到后面的延伸和花园工作室，给体积一个明确的整体形式。未经处理的木材板条创造了一个表面，它看起来柔软，悬垂状和触觉，与微妙的三维。
