林荫之家位于新西兰奥克兰的雷穆埃拉。翻修工程由Strachan集团建筑师构思并完成。

Description by Strachan: This project is a renovation of a late 1950’s residential dwelling in a bush glade setting in suburban Remuera. The house is modernist in style, typical of the period with low-pitched gabled roof, raking ceilings and exposed rafters. Fundamental to the re-design was the notion of providing “graduated connections” to the surrounding glade, physical and visual.

这个项目是对20世纪50年代末在雷穆埃拉郊区灌木丛林中的一座住宅的改造。这座房子在风格上是现代主义的，典型的时期有低矮的门廊屋顶，倾斜的天花板和裸露的萝卜。重新设计的基础是向周围的空地提供“分级连接”的概念，无论是物理上还是视觉上。

Spaces are divided by a “blade” element that alters the entrance’s appearance by extending the original chimney breast and pulls together the two floors as well as creating a stairwell that accommodates two fireplaces – one exterior, one interior. The new entry has been lowered and the structure floated over a pool of water to give a sense of lightness that reflects light into the inner recesses of the lower level through an aperture that once was the study window.

空间被一个“刀片”元素隔开，这个元素通过延伸原来的烟囱乳房来改变入口的外观，并将两层楼合在一起，并创建一个可容纳两个壁炉的楼梯井-一个是外部的，一个是内部的。新的入口已经被降低，结构漂浮在一个水池上，给人一种轻盈的感觉，通过一个曾经是研究窗口的孔，将光线反射到较低层的内部凹槽中。

Alterations to the upper private wing look to better utilise existing space; a reconfigured Master bedroom/new ensuite, new bathroom and additional bedroom. The new garage extrudes from the existing gable form and is wrapped in a mixture of clear acrylic sheet/over-slatting and stained shadowclad ply. A new ramp connection to the rear entry is covered by an “attached’ series of angle frames with open slats fixed to allow secure passage whilst maintaining light and openness.

对上层私人侧翼进行改造，以更好地利用现有空间；重新配置的主卧室/新套间、新浴室和额外的卧室。新车库是从现有的山墙形式，并被包裹在一个透明的亚克力片/过度板条和染色阴影的混合物。一个新的坡道连接到后面的入口是由一个“附加的”一系列的角度框架与开放的板条固定，以允许安全通过，同时保持轻和开放。

Kitchen, Dining and Living spaces featured insertions of new interior units and new or upgraded exterior joinery units to enhance connections to extended deck spaces and outdoor fire area. The lower floor area now incorporates guest accommodation and additional bar space that provides a facility for guests to cater for themselves with connections off this space to a deck/patio area and landscaped gardens.

厨房、餐厅和生活区的特点是插入新的内部单元和新的或升级的外部细木工单元，以加强与扩展的甲板空间和室外防火区域的连接。较低的建筑面积现在包括客房住宿和额外的酒吧空间，为客人提供设施，以满足自己的需求，并将该空间连接到甲板/天井区域和景观花园。摄影PatrickReynolds访问StrachanGroupArchitects。
