HASA Architects has transformed a derelict glasshouse into a modern, minimalist event space in a north London former nursery. Drawing on their fascination for beautiful sites and unconventional projects, the team of architects – headed by Charlotte Harris and Mark Stevens – worked to adjust, expand and bring the existing structure to the 21st century; all set amid a leafy landscaped site by designers Buono Gazerwitz Landscape Architecture.

哈萨建筑师已经把一间废弃的温室改造成了伦敦北部一家以前的托儿所里的一间现代化的、极简主义的活动场所。这支由夏洛特·哈里斯(夏洛特·哈里斯)和马克·史蒂文斯(Mark Stevens)领导的建筑师团队，利用他们对美丽景点和非常规项目的迷恋，努力调整、扩大现有建筑，并将其带入21世纪；所有这些建筑都是在设计师布诺·加泽维茨(Buono Gazerwitz)设计的一处

The architects approached the current owners, Karen and Lekhu Pagarani, in 2017, proposing the update of the neglected glasshouse in Highgate, and despite time and budgetary constraints, they created a striking space that combines glass and birch plywood. The ply panels are finished in white Osmo oil for a light, smooth feel, while careful detailing and architectural gestures, such as replacing the original doors with plywood ones, create a sense of seamlessness and coherence throughout.

2017年，建筑师们与现任业主凯伦(Karen)和Lekhu Pagarani进行了接触，提出了对高盖特(Highgate)被忽视的温室进行更新的建议。尽管时间和预算限制，他们还是创造了一个引人注目的空间，将玻璃和桦木胶合板结合在一起。铺板用白色的奥斯莫油制成，手感轻盈流畅，细致的细节和建筑姿态，如用胶合板代替原来的门，在整个过程中创造了一种无缝和连贯的感觉。

The simple nature of the original architecture served as a source of inspiration, so the interiors are now suitably clean and uncluttered – fittingly so, for a multi-functional space that caters for a range of activities, from talks to exhibitions and other private and community events. Flexibility was key and the architects went back a few months after completion to adapt the space even further, adding a functioning kitchen to the mix.

原始建筑的简单本质是灵感的源泉，因此，室内现在是适当的干净和整洁-非常适合于一个多功能的空间，可以满足各种各样的活动，从演讲到展览以及其他私人和社区活动。灵活性是关键，建筑师们在完工几个月后就开始进一步调整空间，在混合环境中增加了一个功能良好的厨房。

Now, the glasshouse at Omved Gardens is a thriving place for inspiration and events of all kinds, and its contemporary, well thought out architecture plays a key role in that. ‘The project aims to explore the possibilities of this forgotten piece of the city’, say the architects on their website; and it sounds like thanks to their design, this architectural space is now back at the heart of the local community. §

现在，欧姆维德花园的温室是一个充满灵感和各种事件的繁荣之地，它的当代精心设计的建筑在这方面起着关键的作用。网站上的建筑师们说，这个项目旨在探索这个被遗忘的城市的可能性。听起来，多亏了他们的设计，这个建筑空间现在又回到了当地社区的中心。§
