Garden Room Extension – Bickerton Croft is a contemporary extension and refurbishment designed by Edinburgh-based Graphite Studios in West Lothian, Scotland.

花园室扩建-比克顿克罗夫特是一个当代扩展和翻新设计爱丁堡石墨工作室在西洛锡安，苏格兰。

This project is for a 60 square metre high quality garden room extension to the rear of a twelve year old property in East Whitburn, West Lothian. Graphite Studio also remodelled three of the existing bedrooms and a living room in the rest of the property.

这是一个60平方米的高质量花园房扩建项目，在东惠特伯恩，西洛锡安的12年楼龄的后方。石墨工作室还改建了三间现有的卧室和一间起居室。

The tall garden room is a single space open up to the apex of the roof. It has a direct relationship with the very large south-facing back garden and high quality landscaping beside the extension. Sliding doors with flush thresholds provide direct access onto the hardwood decked area which has a barbecue area, hot tub and fire pit. The doors on the corner slide open to expose the load-bearing timber post.

高高的花园房间是一个单独的空间，通往屋顶的顶端。它与非常大的南面后花园和高质量的景观旁边的延伸有着直接的关系。滑动门与齐平阈值提供直接进入硬木甲板地区，其中有烧烤区，热水浴缸和火坑。拐角上的门滑开，露出承重木柱.

The palette of materials for the extension includes a load-bearing douglas fir frame, random rubble stone similar to the existing house, dressed red sandstone cladding and window mullions, slate roof, western red cedar cladding on the gable and large glazed powder coated aluminium-framed sliding doors. Large Velux rooflights allow lots of light into the tall space.

该扩建材料的调色板包括一个承载道格拉斯杉木框架，随机瓦砾石类似于现有的房子，经过修饰的红砂岩覆层和窗口，板岩屋顶，西部红色雪松覆层在山墙和大型玻璃粉末涂层铝框架滑动门。巨大的VELUX屋顶灯允许大量的光进入高耸的空间。

As the douglas fir frame dries out, gradually splits and shakes appear in the timber, which are natural and do not reduce the structural strength. Dimmable Talo wall lights by Artemide were fixed to the douglas fir beams and colour changing LEDs were concealed in linear pockets behind the beams.

随着道格拉斯冷杉框架干涸，木材逐渐分裂和震动，这是自然的，不会降低结构强度。Artemide设计的可调的Talo壁灯被固定在道格拉斯冷杉的光束上，改变颜色的LED被隐藏在光束后面的线性口袋中。

Internally the flooring is maple at a higher level beside the existing living and dining rooms with three steps down to the main part of the garden room, which is floored in pietra serena grey limestone (the same flooring is used in Apple stores throughout Europe). Motorised sliding frameless glass doors with motion sensor opening mechanisms provide access between the existing property and the extension.

在室内，地板是枫树，在现有的客厅和餐厅旁边，有三步走到花园房间的主要部分，花园里铺满了塞雷纳灰色石灰石(欧洲各地的苹果商店都使用同样的地板)。带有运动传感器开启机构的机动滑动无框玻璃门提供现有属性和扩展之间的通路。

The Garden Room Extension has a Lutron system controlled by an iPad, which interlinks 6 mood lighting circuits and the audio and TV system. Audio speakers are flush mounted in the ceiling of the extension.

花园房的延伸部分有一个由iPad控制的Lutron系统，它连接了6个情绪照明电路和音频和电视系统。音频扬声器齐平安装在扩展部分的天花板上。

A solid fuel burning stove is set into an angled Caithness stone-clad wall, and the same stone returns along part of the side wall internally, with small square light fittings set flush with the stone. A television on a motorised cradle rises up out of the area behind the stove at the touch of a button on a remote control.

一个固体燃料燃烧炉被设置成一个角度的凯特尼斯石板墙，相同的石头返回沿部分侧壁内部，小方灯配件设置与石齐平。一台电动摇篮上的电视机按一下遥控器上的按钮，就从炉子后面的地方升起。

An existing dormer window to the first floor bathroom was removed, as the roof of the extension was high enough to built in front of the space previously occupied by the dormer. A small circular internal window was added at high level to provide an unusual view from the bathroom into the garden room below.

一楼浴室的一扇窗户被拆除了，因为延伸部分的屋顶已经足够高，可以建在原来被宿舍占用的空间前面。在较高的水平上增加了一个小的圆形的内窗，从浴室到下面的花园房提供了一个不同寻常的视野。

The project also involved installing energy efficient measures including a biomass boiler (which burns wood pellets), evacuated tube solar panels for water heating and a large photovoltaic installation which generates electricity for sale back to the grid.

该项目还涉及安装节能措施，包括一个生物质锅炉(燃烧木球)、用于水加热的疏散管太阳能电池板和一个发电回电网的大型光伏装置。

Two bedrooms were refurbished for teenagers, one of which included a light wall with colour changing LED lighting strips concealed behind triple wall opal polycarbonate sheeting.

为青少年翻新了两间卧室，其中一间包括一堵有变色LED照明条的轻型墙壁，隐藏在三层墙的蛋白石聚碳酸酯床单后面。
