Edges Apartment

边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)

边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)拥有铰接形砖砌立面,成为萨利米耶(Salmiya)街道的最大亮点——这里是科威特一个主要外籍居民区。通过将有限轴两侧的顶点进行移置,实现了简单却有韵律的扭曲效果,使立面更具动感和戏剧效果。由当地采购的天然砖和露石混凝土饰面拼接而成的多元调色盘,进一步强调了建筑物料的纯净度,赋予了建筑以独特的个性。
TheEdges Apartment, with its articulated brick cladding façade, lights up thestreets of Salmiya, a predominantly ex-pat neighborhoodin Kuwait. A simple rhythmic twist, achieved by transposition of thevertices on either side of a finite axis, imparts dynamism and drama to thefaçade. A very restrained palette of locally sourced natural brick and exposed concrete finish further emphasizes the purity of the mass and gives the building its unique personality.

建筑立面的不规则形状也受到了基于实际情况考虑的影响,包括盛行风的干扰甚至是破坏,遮阳的需求和隐私的保护。垂直的铝百叶窗条将建筑物的正面分割成两半,表示了建筑南北两侧住宅之间的分界线;百叶窗保护中央楼梯免受阳光直射,但也限制了人们于玻璃内衬流通空间内的视野。
The facade's irregularform was also influenced by practical considerations including the disruptionof strong prevailing winds, and the provision of shade and privacy. A verticalstrip of aluminum louvres splits the building's frontage into two halves,denoting the divide between homes on the north and south sides of the property.The louvres protect the central staircase from direct sunlight, but alsorestrict views into this glass-lined circulation space.

在建筑的一楼,与停车场相邻的露天大厅提供给住户通往楼梯、电梯和公共健身室的便捷通道、公共健身室面向街道,部分空间蔽于金属百叶窗之后。大厅的玻璃-强化混凝土天花板于环形通道中置入嵌入式照明,将居民和访客引向各个入口,同时延续了立面的鲜明线条。涂有透明环氧树脂的涂漆混凝土地板砖形成坚固的表面,与砖块的质地形成互补。大楼后部的露台则容纳一个小型的露天游泳池。总而言之,边沿公寓高达10层,提供20套两居室公寓。
On theground floor, an exposed lobby adjacent to the parking area provides access to the staircase, lifts and a communal gym, which faces the street and ispartially shielded behind more metal louvres. The lobby's glass-reinforce dconcrete ceiling incorporates recessed lighting in an annular channel thatdirects residents and visitors towards the various entrances and continues thesharp lines of the facade. Patinated concrete floor tiles coated with clearepoxy resin form a hardy surface that complements the brick. A patio to therear of the building accommodates a small open-air swimming pool. The buildingis 10 stories high, housing 20 two-bed apartments.

客户愿景概述 OUTLINE OFCLIENT'S VISION
客户委托Studio Toggle设计一栋公寓作为投资物业,主要用于租给外国住户,同时要求该建筑包括必须有高度实用性、低维护成本以及能够适合外国人在科威特的生活方式。选择一处独特街道,是建造的前提——以此才能区分这座公寓与周围的一般性建筑群。除此之外,客户对于室内功能空间的要求是,需要提供一个大型厨房,以及能够适用于所有卧室的起居空间——不得不说,这与科威特外籍人士的住宅风格截然相反;对于建筑的上层生活区的要求是,需要能够提供给住户美丽的海景并将其纳入建筑整体设计考量;公寓的整体预算非常严格,客户也始终坚持使用免维护和高耐用的本地材料。
The client commissioned us to design an apartment building as an investment property that will berented out to mainly ex-pats. The design had to be practical, low maintenanceand suited to the ex-pat lifestyle in Kuwait. A distinct street presence was an important requirement to distinguish it from the generic buildings that surround it. The client also wanted a large kitchen and living space for allthe bedrooms, which goes against the grain in ex-pat housing in Kuwait. Seaview for living areas for the upper floors was possible and had to beincorporated. The budget was extremely restrictive and the client insisted onthe usage of maintenance-free and hard-wearing locally sourced materials.

设计背景CONTEXT
公寓坐落于萨利米耶(Salmiya)最拥挤的道路旁边,它距海岸仅有400米,其两侧是科威特美国大学和一所中学,同时多专科医院也在它的附近。所有的这些建筑以及类似规模的密集公寓楼的分布,使这里成为一个相对繁忙的区域。因此,噪音污染,交通冗杂,以及停车不便是这片区域亟待解决的问题。而作为城市区域的一部分,行人通道和停车场原本几乎常常被忽略,从而造成了一种混乱感。城市结构由密集的、没有任何街道存在的普通公寓楼群组成。
Thesite is located along with one of Salmiya’s congested roads. About 400 metersaway from the sea, it is also flanked by the American University of Kuwait anda secondary school. The multispecialty hospital is also in the near vicinity.All these along with a dense cluster of apartment buildings of similar sizemake it a relatively busy area. Noise and traffic was a real concern and so wasparking. Pedestrian access and car parking spaces are barely considered ofimportance as part of the urban area, creating a sense of disorder. The urbanfabric consisted of dense generic clusters of apartment blocks without anystreet presence.

该地区的极端气候条件加剧了边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)所面临的困难和挑战;偶尔出现的沙尘暴和炎热的沙漠风,会严重影响到建筑物及其周围环境。
The region’s extreme climatic conditions contribute to the existing difficulties and challenges the site has to offer, with the occasional dust storms and hot desert winds which affect the building and its surroundings.

设计DESIGN
边缘公寓的设计考虑到了最初的建筑愿景以及周遭环境所带来的挑战,并利用它进行设计指导。除了开发免维护的建筑布局外,设计师还确定了立面设计的重要地位,要求它必须在满足美观性和功能性的前提下,符合预算限制。因此设计师开发了一种简单铰接方案,在这个方案中,建筑物的边缘以有节奏的顺序进行移位调换,这种方式给了这座建筑一种显而易见的前卫属性,而砖砌覆层的应用则进一步增强了这种性格。立面上的这种衔接不仅产生了动感,而且获得了更多定向性的观点,并起到了抵御西北海域强风的作用。这些元素有助于建筑物在狭窄的街道景观中脱颖而出。
The design of the edges apartment takes into consideration the challenges posed by the brief and the context and uses it to inform the design. Apart from developing a maintenance-free architectural layout, we decided that the façade design was of paramount importance and that it had to be aesthetically pleasing while being functional and conforming to the restrictive budget. Hence, we developed a simple articulated scheme in which the edges of the building are transposed ina rhythmic order.  This gave the massinga decidedly edgy character, which was further enhanced by the decision to usebrick as a cladding. This articulation on the façade not only creates a senseof dynamism but also achieves more directional view points and acts as awindbreaker to the strong winds arriving from the sea on the northwest. These elements help the building to stand out in a very narrow streetscape.

On the ground floor, an exposed lobby adjacent to the parking area provides access to the staircase,lifts and a communal gym, which faces the street and is partially shielded behind aluminum louvres. The lobby's glass-reinforced concrete ceiling incorporates recessed lighting in an annular channel that directs residents and visitors towards the various entrances and continues the sharp lines of the facade.

本地砖块的使用以及露石混凝土的选择也回应了建筑预算限制以及采用简单施工方法的需求。
The choice of local brick and exposed concrete is also responding to budgetary constraints and the need to employ simple construction methods.

可持续SUSTAINABILITY
设计师所面临的挑战是,在需要遵守极为严格的预算的同时,为边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)创造一个具有高度识别性的标志或身份,同时保证其高功能性和可维护性。除此之外,这座公寓也必须能够承受科威特令人难以忍受的酷暑以及偶尔发生的沙尘暴等严格的气候环境考验。
The challenge was togive the building an instantly recognizable identity at the same time respecting an extremely restrictive budget. Functionality and serviceability were also as important. The building had to withstand the unforgiving summer heat of Kuwait made unbearable also by the occasional dust/sand storm.

设计师选择带有防风雨涂层的透气性砖包层,因其有效的热保护和足够的耐寒性,结合露石混凝土饰面可以承受住严酷的沙漠气候。建筑的主窗户是凹入型,以阻挡阳光直射,并尽可能通过铝百叶窗减少热量的增加,避免眩光效应。通过它于建筑顶点的交替和调换,一天之内,无论何时,都能够为其下的各个楼层进行遮阳保护——有效降低了照入生活区的直射阳光强度。
The ventilated brickcladding with a weatherproof coating acts as effective thermal protection aswell as being hardy enough, along with the exposed concrete finishes, towithstand the harsh desert climate. The major windows are recessed to block outthe direct sun and Aluminum louvres are employed wherever possible to reduce the heat gain and the glare. Through itsalternation and transposition on the vertices, shade is achieved for floors below during all times of the day, reducing direct sunlight into the living areas.

设计师所使用的材料包括源自当地的烧结砖,和光洁面混凝土所组成的局限性较高的材质调色板。考虑到预算的限制,设计师采用了低技术含量的建造方法,并考虑可持续材料的选择和相关能源的消耗。
The materials used comprises of a very restrained palette of locally sourced fired brick and fair-faced concrete.  Respecting the budgetary constrained a low-tech approach was used considering sustainable material choices and energy consumption.

愿景实现FULFILLING THE BRIEF
尽管结构简单且预算有限,但边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)在其周围密集的城市环境中仍保持着其独特的个性,以至于它已毫无疑问地成为某种地标建筑。通过选择简单的砖石和混凝土外墙,从而满足了客户偏爱耐用耐磨的本地材质的心理,这也使整座建筑免于过度的后期维护,同时避免从灰尘和光照处可能受到的负面影响。该项目还在尊重其最大化可出租空间的同时,亦需提高租户生活质量的要求。边沿公寓(Edges Apartment)实际对于既存的城市结构方面进行了稍许的冲击,同时以此鼓励未来的项目也像它这般,挑战传统的市区组织肌理,实现未来建筑群类型的改革。
The edges apartment maintains its unique personality amongst the surrounding dense urbanity despiteits extremely simple program and restrictive budget, to the point it has become some sort of a landmark. The client’s preferences for local, hardwearing honest material was met through thechoice of simple brick and concrete facades which also makes it maintenance free and shields it from the dust and the heat. The project also respects its requirement to maximize the rentable space whileenhancing the quality of life for the tenants.  The edges apartment practically disrupted the urbanfabric in hopes of instigating future projects to do so similarly, in an attempt to organize and transform the typology.
