架构师提供的文本描述。将原车库、车身车间和油漆店的建筑改造为销售五金和金属加工工具的公司的分支机构，属于你仍然想要不断探索建筑与其周围环境的关系、历史和未来发展以及细节的项目。或者说，对搜索的渴望，以及更准确地表达的愿望。

Text description provided by the architects. Converting the building of a former garage, body shop and paint shop into a branch office of a company selling hardware and metal machining toolware falls within the projects that you simply need if you still desire to make endless search for the relationship between architecture and its surroundings, to historical and future development, and to detail. Or, the desire to search and to deliver as well, to put it more precisely.

目的是不受先前作出的决定的约束，相反，在与专家进行关键讨论之后，选择看似最佳的解决方案，并得到客户的支持。随后，整个过程导致没有极端，即单方面和无意义的建筑展览和一个统一和普遍的解决办法与顽固的努力，以减少预算，不惜任何代价。

The aim is not to be bound by previously taken decisions, on the contrary, following critical discussions with experts, to select the seemingly best solution and to feel the client’s support. Subsequently, the whole process results in the absence of extremes, i.e. unilateral and pointless architectural exhibition and a unified and universal solution with stubborn efforts to reduce the budget at any cost.

 Ground Floor Plan

在这种特殊情况下，上述信任表现在三个主要方面，决定了重建的总体方针。第一种是位置对建筑物的影响，即对建筑物表达的影响。荒凉的环境，主要是一条繁忙的道路，使所有的利益相关者相信，这将是最好的主意，把建筑物内。

In this particular case, the above-mentioned trust manifested itself in three major aspects determining the overall approach to the reconstruction. The first one is the effect of the location onto the building, i.e. the influence defining the expression of the building. The desolate surroundings, mainly characterized by a busy road, convinced all the stakeholders that it would be the best idea to turn the building inwards.

一个中庭是在框架的中心区域之一创建的，几乎整个内部都转向它。在这里，这位投资者再次表现出他的宽容，为一种非常规的景观设计方法开了绿灯。正因为如此，中庭里有一块巨大的岩石，逐渐覆盖着苔藓.相比其他，更传统的设计，这提供了一个更不雅致的印象，更好地对应公司的工作内容。

An atrium was created in one of the central fields of the frame, with almost the entire interior turning to it. Here the investor showed again his tolerance, giving the green light to an unconventional approach to landscape architecture. Owing to this, the atrium houses a large-scale piece of rock to be gradually covered with moss. Compare to other, more conventional designs, this provides a more unrefined impression, better corresponding to the company’s job content.

周边外观看起来实用，除了入口区域由一个附加的钢板层网格，其垂直部分转向焦点位于中庭区域。因此，可以从钢网格前面的任何地方观察内部，然而，从角度来看，带材通过突出来产生强调入口点的质量。

The perimeter façade looks utilitarian, with the exception of the entrance area made of an attached steel lamellar grid whose vertical segments turn to the focus point located in the atrium area. It is thus possible to take a look in the interior from any spot in front of the steel grid, however, in the perspective, the strips create the mass emphasizing the entrance point by means of a protrusion.

解决方案背后有两个原因：一是保护大型玻璃墙，二是明确认定大楼是一家以钢铁为主的公司的分支机构。最后的设计是经过许多小时的思考和寻找理想的比例和形状。毕竟，它是一个基于灵活定制解决方案的复杂而实用的参数化设计。

There are two reasons behind the solution: the protection of large-scale glazed walls and a clear identification of the building as a branch office of a company working predominantly with steel. The final design is a result of many hours of reflections and searching to ideal proportions and shapes. After all, it is a complex and functional parametric design based on a flexible custom solution.

然而，投资者的方法往往反映在工作的细节，参与设计过程中的某些质量和一半的解决方案。直到最后一扇门把手，才有可能完成这个项目，这是现在的普遍做法。

Nevertheless, the investor’s approach tends to be most reflected in the work with detail, being involved in the design process separating certain quality and half solutions. It is not common practice these days to have the possibility to complete the project until the very last door handle.

尽管作出了充分的妥协，但作者成功地将统一的方法应用于壳结构，也成功地应用于整体内部解决方案。除家具外，该项目还包括定位元素的平面设计、展示厅概念的开发，或产品玻璃器皿和瓷器的综合设计，包括自己的配件。由此产生的连贯性质是所有利益攸关方密切合作的结果，他们不怕讨论，对彼此表现出信心。希望这座建筑能持久地让人满意。

Despite an adequate amount of compromise, the author succeeded in applying a unified approach not only to the shell construction but also to the overall interior solution. In addition to the furniture, the project also included the graphic design of orientation elements, developing the showroom exhibition concept, or the comprehensive design of product glassware and chinaware including own accessories. The resulting coherent character is an outcome of intense cooperation of all the stakeholders not being afraid to discuss and showing confidence in one another. Hopefully, the building will serve to lasting satisfaction.
