Brief: Create a residential SoHo penthouse duplex from a two-story shell in Jean Nouvel’s iconic 40 Mercer Street building.

简介：在让·努维尔标志性的美世街40号建筑中，用两层楼的空壳建造一套苏豪住宅复式公寓。

Solution: Jean Nouvel’s large-scale curtain wall is a highly resolved and powerful element that must interact and inform the resolution of the new residence. A series of fully articulated components allow visibility of three sides of the curtain wall and always maintain contact with the buildings shell.

解决方案：JeanNouvel的大型幕墙是一个高度分辨率和强大的元素，必须交互并通知新住宅的分辨率。一系列完全铰接的构件可以使幕墙的三个侧面可见，并始终保持与建筑物外壳的接触。

A wood service bar is lined in a cloud gray lacquer and contains bathrooms, guest bedroom, and closets on the lower and upper levels. A metal stair coded in the metal vocabulary of the curtain wall sits freely between the wood bar and a two-story white volume. It contains the kitchen below and the study above. A deconstructed cantilevered cube activates and occupies the glass volume and completes the kitchen below and study perch above. The cube is comprised of a white slatted wood exterior (to accommodate HVAC), a yellow floating ceiling plane, a wood liner for the study above and an aluminum skin that clads the kitchen below.

木服务酒吧内衬云灰色漆，包括浴室，客人卧室，和衣橱在下层和上层。一个金属楼梯，编码在金属词汇的幕墙之间，自由地坐在木条和一个两层白色的音量之间。里面有下面的厨房和上面的书房。解构的悬臂立方体激活并占据玻璃体积，完成下面的厨房和上面的书房。立方体由白色板条木外壳(以适应暖通空调)、黄色浮动天花板飞机、上面书房用的木衬里和下面厨房用的铝皮组成。

The cube’s yellow planar ceiling provides intimacy, a cover from the sun and forms a compliment to the blue glass and gray metal skin of the building. The curtain wall consciously interacts with all the architectural elements inspired by the painting of Piet Mondrian and the exploration of space by architects Gerrit Rietveld and Theo Van Doesburg. The plane’s volumes and spaces are open yet inextricably linked.

立方体的黄色平面天花板提供亲密，遮阳，并形成对蓝色玻璃和灰色金属皮肤的建筑物。幕墙有意识地与所有建筑元素互动，灵感来自于Piet Mondrian的绘画，以及建筑师Gerrit Rietveld和Theo Van Doesburg对空间的探索。飞机的体积和空间是开放的，但却是不可分割地联系在一起的。

Shadows cast by the curtain wall generate the shape of staggered ceiling glass light boxes that run across the narrow dimensions of the space. They simulate the syncopation of the traffic and light below. Furnishings balance hard and soft, dark and light. The round rug in the large volume is woven to give the impression that when viewed from above, the line work of its texture turns the form into a sphere that follows the path of the sun.

幕墙投射的阴影生成交错的天花板玻璃灯箱的形状，这些灯箱穿过空间的窄尺寸。它们模拟下面交通和光线的向斜。家具平衡硬和软，黑暗和光。大体积的圆形地毯是编织而成的，这样的印象是，从上方看，其纹理的线条将形状变成一个沿着太阳路径的球体。

Architecture, interiors, and context become seamlessly integrated into this unique perch so magically celebrating the city it embraces.

建筑，内部和环境变得无缝地融入这个独特的栖息之所，如此神奇地庆祝它所拥抱的城市。
