这个1929年建成的公寓最初为两个复式,其中之一最初由澳大利亚著名艺术家、收藏家约翰·里德居住。(在他去世后成为了海德现代艺术博物馆)。[哎~实在翻译不下去了,下面发英文原文,抱歉了各位!!!]
Located in Melbourne's Domain precinct this 1929 built residence originally began as two duplexes, one of which was originally inhabited by the famous Australian artists-collectors Sunday and John Reed before they move to the Heide property (which after their death became the Heide Museum of Modern Art). Merging historic architecture with a contemporary, cantilevered addition, the old and the new are now joined with wide shadow recesses and textural change where the achromatic color palette of matte black steel, polished black timber flooring, cement walls and polished aluminum reflect the transparency of the modern design.
The architectural master plan sought to celebrate the original structure and well-proportioned spaces whilst updating them to provide a cohesive series of interior spaces to suit the family of five. Defined by extensive planar axes, the core of which outlines the home over two floors, Melbourne-based Carr Design Group has designed an overlap of the new and the old establishing key views throughout the residence through planned united space design.
A bold double storey glazed structure was added to the rear west face of the property in an attempt to bring natural light into the heart of the home. In generating a new circulation core to the building, openings are lined with the introduction of steel portals and framing devices for reveals, panels and blades, marking the transition from the residence’s original form to contemporary space.
On the ground floor, the communal spaces share two entries – the main entry and a service entry. A striking black glossy staircase punctures the upper floor illuminated by slivers of light, penetrating the stair void as the sun transitions from East to West. Oversized openings to new spaces are level glazed enabling a view of the adjacent property’s textured walling. Expansive private spaces on the first floor are designed within the old and new buildings, providing a consistent bedroom floor.
All in all, the historic South Yarra residence’s redesign has managed to achieve both the creation of a contemporary architectural statement and a comfortable family home.
