架构师提供的文本描述。该项目位于邓克尔克市入口处铁轨沿线的一个老工业园区内，实际上离主要火车站只有一步之遥。因此，该地区地理位置极佳，发展迅速。这座建筑本身已经废弃和空置多年，最初是一家棉纺厂，建于1928年。

Text description provided by the architects. The project is located in an old industrial park along the railroad tracks at the entrance of the city of Dunkirk, in fact just a stone’s-throw away from the main railway station. The area is thereby extremely well situated and is developing fast. The building itself had been abandoned and empty for years and was originally a cotton mill, founded back in 1928.

这座建筑已被翻新，以容纳一个现代的协同工作环境充满了工作室，一个会议室，一个微型托儿所和一个自助餐厅。这四个功能可以独立运行，但有一个共同的入口。该项目的一个主要目标是保持建筑所具有的巨大建筑品质，并将这一空间改造成新的功能，同时尊重广场作为社区的社会中心。毗邻的水上花园也对设计项目产生了类似的影响，因为它是从自助餐厅的海湾窗口看到的可见全景的一部分。

The building has been renovated to house a contemporary co-working environment replete with workrooms, a conference space, a micro-nursery and a cafeteria. The four functions can operate independently but enjoy a common entrance. A principal objective of the project was to preserve the great architectural qualities the building possessed and to transform this space to fulfill new functions whilst respecting the square opposite as a social hub for the neighborhood. The adjoining water-garden also had a similar impact on the design project as well as because it is part of the visible panorama viewed from the bay windows of the cafeteria.

为了让这座具有象征意义的建筑恢复其实力，该项目充分保留了现有的现状，并在其基础上植入了两个新的底层延伸区，即自助餐厅和托儿所。

To give this symbolic building back its strength, the project fully preserves the existing as it was and implants at its base two new ground floor extensions that house the cafeteria and the nursery.

延伸部分通过清扫的海湾窗户和矿物广场把大楼打开，延伸到城外的城镇，这座建筑本身就可以看到一个新的城市绿地。这些低矮的建筑并没有掩盖老磨坊俯瞰它们，但实际上有助于突出原来的结构。

The extensions open the building up to the town beyond it via the sweeping bay windows and the mineral square, which itself looks on to a new urban green space. These low constructions do not conceal the old mill overlooking them, but actually contribute to highlight the original structure.

在现有的建筑中，原材料和新材料之间的对比更新鲜、更精致，形成了相当鲜明的对比。最初的轮廓被完全保留下来，以便在高原上获得与过去的制造时代相同的表面：电梯接管了曾经被工业升降机占据的地方，而紧固件也得到了保护。为了适应整个程序，已经创建了两个额外的混凝土板，只是在现有的一个之间滑动，形成了第1级和第3级。厚砖墙的新开口在现有的规则范围内发生，而外面的金属楼梯则呈现出奇异的正面。

In the existing building, the contrast between the raw original materials and the new ones, which are fresher and more refined, creates rather a striking contrast. The original outlines have been entirely preserved in order to obtain the same surface on the plateau as it was in the olden times of its manufacturing days : the elevator has taken over the place once occupied by an industrial lift and the straicase has been conserved. To accommodate the entire program, two additional concrete slabs have been created and just slippled between the existing one, forming level 1 and level 3. New openings in the thick brick walls take place within an existing regularity while the outside metal staircase brings out the singular facades.

由于玻璃和金属与原来的红砖完美地结合在一起，所以在建筑物的转换中所使用的材料的选择具有一定的判断力。一种平静、和平的氛围已经被创造出来了，这要归功于这些延伸部分所用的木材的清澈色调。

A certain discretion is achieved by the choice of materials used in the building’s conversion as the glass and metal blend perfectly with the original red brick. A calming, peaceful ambiance has been created thanks to the clear tint of wood with which the extensions were built.

家具的设计和定制：办公桌，接待处和自助酒吧是由建筑物的建筑材料回收，几件家具已经用黄麻织物软垫，从而加强了​​更新和遗产保护理念的连续性。

The furniture is designed and custom-tailored: office tables, the reception desk and the cafeteria bar are made from materials recycled from the building’s construction and several pieces of furniture have been upholstered with jute fabric thus reinforcing the continuity of the idea of ​​renewal and heritage preservation.

四幢独立的建筑物

FOUR SEPARATE BUILDINGS

所有办公室和会议室都位于翻修后的四层楼内。现有的窗口已被保存，并提供了令人惊讶的观点和观点。在现有的大厅里，一个研讨会室在一个层次上举行，在露台和公园里享受着一个大的开放。在现有建筑的脚下，植入了两种新的建筑，它们的高度和建筑风格都是一样的。这两个分店都有自助餐厅和微型托儿所，每个人都享受着自己的户外空间。

All offices and meeting rooms are located in the renovated building that develops on four floors. The existing windows have been preserved and feature surprising views and perspectives. In the existing hall, a seminar room takes place on one level, enjoying a large opening onto the terrace and park. At the foot of the existing building, two new constructions are implanted, both with the same height and architectural style. These two extensions house the cafeteria and micro-nursery, each enjoying their own outdoor space.

第一个CO工作空间DUNKRIK：一个生态公民项目

THE FIRST CO-WORKING SPACE DUNKRIK : AN ECO-CITIZEN PROJECT

Work & Co is a social enterprise. Its founders, Pierre Bataille and Steffi de Jong, developed the first coworking space available in Dunkirk. Their concept is for entrepreneurs with small structures and who are in search of a flexible work place and exchanges. These entrepreneurs often have difficulty accessing conventional business real estate and dislike the isolation of working from home. This concept is innovative because this collaborative workspace creates a network for professionals and offers them additional support services. Work & Co also includes a nursery, Kids & Co, and an independent coffee shop, Coffee & Co. With this space of co-working supporting local entrepreneurship, the project contributes to the economic development of Dunkirk and its attractiveness. Work & Co has created 8 jobs and a dynamic network. Beyond the employment aspect, this space offers local residents a new friendly environment welcoming them and their children. The project is supported by a private investor, the Belgian Piet Colruyt that specializes in "impact investing": an investment that responds primarily to a social needs outweighing its financial profitability.
