Situated on the edge of a leafy garden square in Holland park, the Blue House is a Grade II listed Georgian, four storey, end of terrace house. Although almost in a state of ruin, the house had undeniable potential and Studio indigo set about resurrecting it to its former glory.
蓝房子坐落在荷兰公园的一个绿树成荫的花园广场的边缘,是一座列有格鲁吉亚风格的二级建筑,四层楼高,是一座露台楼的尽头。虽然几乎处于一种毁灭的状态,房子有不可否认的潜力和工作室靛蓝开始恢复它以前的辉煌。
It had the characteristics of an archetypal London Georgian property – constructed of typical London stock brick on a stucco ground floor, with sash windows and a butterfly roof concealed behind a parapet wall.
它的特点是一个典型的伦敦格鲁吉亚财产-建造典型的伦敦砖块在灰泥底层,带窗和蝴蝶屋顶隐藏在墙后。
The Blue house had been divided into two flats with the upper unit knocked through to the adjoining house. Many of the original internal architectural features had been lost and replaced with pseudo gothic features. The original details which did remain were heavily damaged or obscured by many layers of paint work.
蓝房子被划分成两套公寓,上面的单元被撞到相邻的房子里。许多最初的内部建筑特征已经消失,取而代之的是伪哥特式特征。原来的细节,仍然是严重破坏或模糊了许多层油漆工作。
The original layout remained largely intact apart from the addition of an unsightly rear 1970’s ‘modern style’ extension and some minor modifications to the lower ground floor.
最初的布局基本上保持不变,除了增加一个难看的后方1970年的“现代风格”的延伸和一些小的修改底层。
The architectural challenge was to adapt the original layout with respect to its architectural heritage, whilst embracing contemporary living and maximising space in an exceptionally narrow house. Studio Indigo utilised clean lines and capitalise on the natural light while embracing open plan living. This gave an increased perception of space and created a tranquil interior, at one with nature.
建筑方面的挑战是要调整其建筑遗产的原有布局,同时在一所非常狭窄的房子中融入当代生活和最大限度的空间。工作室靛蓝利用干净的线条和利用自然光,同时拥抱开放的计划生活。这增加了对空间的感知,创造了一个宁静的内部,与自然融为一体。
The architectural details were restored and in some cases, recreated. A contemporary glass ‘box’ extension was added to the rear, providing additional lateral living space and an abundance of natural light. This minimal glazed extension allowed the original and newly restored rear facade to be clearly seen from the garden.
建筑细节被修复,在某些情况下,被重新创建。一个现代玻璃‘盒’的延伸被添加到后方,提供额外的横向生活空间和丰富的自然光。这最小的玻璃延伸,使原来和新恢复后外观可以清楚地从花园看到。
The interior style is bold and vibrant in character, an eclectic mix of old and new, raw yet refined, mirroring the client’s exquisite taste. The colour blue, a favourite of the client, runs throughout the house as a unifying theme, varying in tone and shade from room to room.
内部风格是大胆和生机勃勃的性格,融合了新旧,生但精致,反映了客户的精致品味。蓝色是客户最喜欢的颜色,作为一个统一的主题贯穿整个房子,不同房间的色调和色调各不相同。
The project has been a joy to work on, with the restored home now an elegant and graceful reflection of the client’s life and lifestyle.
该项目一直是一个愉快的工作,修复后的家现在是一个优雅和优雅的反映客户的生活和生活方式。
