The modern side extension is the mainstay of small inner city architecture practices, particularly in London. Designed by Coffey Architects, this project is the winner of RIBA London Award 2016.

现代的侧延伸是小内城建筑实践的中流砥柱，特别是在伦敦。该项目由Coffey建筑师设计，是2016年RIBA伦敦奖的获奖者。

The clients of the Modern Side Extension found themselves in a position common to countless thousands of other people in the UK, which makes the house we designed for them of generic value to others. Living in a three-bedroom terraced house, they wanted to expand and remodel for open-plan living on a limited budget. They especially wanted to avoid the cold and clinical aesthetic of many contemporary homes.

现代侧延伸区的客户发现自己处于一个与英国成千上万的其他人相同的位置，这使得我们为他们设计的房子对其他人来说具有普遍的价值。他们住在一个三居室的露台房里，他们想要在有限的预算下扩大和改造开放式计划。他们特别希望避免许多当代家庭的寒冷和临床美学。

SOLID - VOID Conservation area-friendly brick, glass and bi-fold doors unite in a complex three-dimensional composition. Respectful to neighbours, the Modern Side Extension shows that the smallest architectural projects can be transformational. Coffey Architects have avoided both the typical glass side infill solution and the intrusive projecting rear extension by reversing the infill condition. Built from contextually apt London Stock brick, this essentially involves a structural solution that allows the existing volume of the house to slip past a brick pier; a continuation of the party wall. The composition is a subtle game of solid and void, breaking down the threshold between new and old, inside and outside.

STRONG, WARM MATERIALS THAT AGE BEAUTIFULLY The self‐finished internal materials including polished concrete floors, brick, European oak and white sprayed MDF joinery add a sense of context and warmth; a key criteria of the client who wished to avoid the cold and clinical aesthetic of many contemporary residential projects.

坚固而温暖的材料

DISSOLVING THE BOUNDARIESS Slim aluminium bi‐fold doors and frameless rooflight glazing ensure the distinction between inside and outside is dissolved; in effect making the exterior another room of the house and allowing light to permeate deep within the property. No columns, no dodgy glazed infills, no ostentatious materials.

溶解BOUNDARIESS薄铝制双折叠门和无框天窗玻璃，确保内部和外部之间的区别被溶解；实际上，使外部成为房子的另一个房间，并允许光线渗透到物业深处。没有柱子，没有色釉填充，没有华丽的材料。

The Modern Side Extension is an uncompromisingly modern solution to the expansion of a terraced home.

现代侧延伸是一个不妥协的现代解决方案，以扩大一个梯田的家园。
