High Park Residence
//
High Park Residence是位于加拿大多伦多的住宅，由Batay-Csorba Architects设计。在混乱的当今生活中，房屋成为生活的避难所。该设计是为一对意大利夫妇建造的，向意大利传统和多伦多住宅致敬，同时确保绿色和可持续发展。

High Park Residence is a minimal home located in Toronto, Canada, designed by Batay-Csorba Architects. In the chaos of life today a home needs to be a place of refuge, a solitude for the homeowners to retreat to. Built for an Italian couple, the design pays homage both to the clients’ Italian heritage and that of the Toronto residential building fabric, while ensuring a sensitivity towards wellbeing, mobility, and convenience.
项目的设计源于房主的价值观和传统，舒适度在现代生活中得到了完美的体现。穹顶具有多种排列方式，是古罗马建筑最常见的原型之一，特征在于其强大的光线调制能力和轻盈感。将这种方式应用于家庭空间时，我们重新分析与切割出新的几何形状，使得自然采光直射到每个房间以及地面以下的空间。并在整个房屋中创造出连续性。通过将房主过去的经历带入空间，充满了意义和记忆，成为他们的庇护所。

The design of the Pacific project is born from the homeowners’ values and traditions where the comforts of their past are now viscerally felt within their present day lives. The vault, in its many permutations, is one of the most common archetypes of ancient Roman architecture, characterized by its powerful modulation of light and its sense of lightness. In adopting this typology into a domestic space, we evolved the vault from its primary form, puncturing, cutting and peeling it into new geometries that help to distribute light and air into key locations, respond to program organization, demarcating each with a different atmosphere, and create a sectional continuity throughout the house. In carrying sacred content from the homeowner’s past into the present they are transported into another time and place, full of stories, meaning and memories that becomes their refuge.
作为一对退休夫妇，他们想在当地养老，所以他们必须拥有独立停车场。为了避免郊区车库紧张的问题，住宅需要设计一个车库。车棚雕刻了前立面，让人联想起门廊通道。罗马建筑中的一种建筑特征，通常以拱顶或柱廊的形式延伸覆盖至入口处。拱形门廊也是多伦多维多利亚时期一种普遍形式。多伦多的住宅街道通常设有前廊（而不是车库），以街道和房屋之间创造过渡空间。在High Park Residence中，雕刻的车库创造了一个倒置的门廊，在街道上创造了一种内向的存在感。一个采光井穿过建筑，放置在车库的深处，光线漫布深层空间，引导访客进入空间。

As a retired couple intending to age in place, it was essential that they had access to parking on site. Wanting to refrain from the suburban folly of a garage-fronted streets, the decision to create a carport shaped the formal organization of the entire project. The integrated carport carves the front façade, creating a processional entryway reminiscent of the portico; an architectural feature found in roman architecture which covers and extends from the entrance often as a vault or colonnade. Vaulted porches are also a prevalent form in Toronto’s Victorian housing stock. Toronto’s residential streets are often punctuated by front porches (rather than garages) to create a transitional space between the street and the home. In the case of Pacific Residence, the carved carport creates an inverted porch, which creates an introverted presence on the street. A lightwell which cuts through the height of the building is placed at the depth of the carport, washing the deep space with light, pulling visitors towards the entry.
拱顶的几何形状视觉上延伸了场地的长度，表达了内外部之间的关系。从外部看，砖拱顶是对整体砖立面的一种减法。天窗参考邻近房屋比例而创建。覆盖天花板和车库墙壁的砖墙体现了多伦多砖石建筑的历史细节。在多伦多的住宅结构中，砖的传统可以追溯到19世纪，当时多伦多的维多利亚式房屋已经建成。→
The vault geometry extends the length of the lot, informing a relationship between the façade and the interior. From the exterior, the brick vault is a subtraction from the otherwise monolithic brick frontage. This monolithic façade is created through a focus on the rich materiality of the brick coursing, and the isolated dormer which mirrors the proportions of the neighbouring house. The brickwork that covers the façade and wraps the ceiling and walls of the carport plays into Toronto’s history of masonry detailing. The tradition of brick in Toronto’s residential fabric dates back to the 19th century when Toronto’s stock of Victorian houses were built.
在这些房屋中，装饰性细节通过拐角处和檐口处的砖块的呈现出来。房屋的正面被简化为整体式立面-单一的重复性材料装饰纹理分布均匀，重点放在拱形轮廓上。这个图案领域强调光影的作用，并随着季节的变换而变化。在夏天，突出的纹理与鲜明的阴影交织在一起，而在冬天，通过砖块的变化承担部分的积雪。→
In these houses, ornamental detail presents itself in single isolated moments of brick coursing located above apertures, along corners and at cornices. The front of the home is reduced to a monolithic façade – where a single repetitive material ornamentation, an adaptation of the Flemish-bond, become an even but textured brick field placing emphasis on the vaulted profile. This field of patterning emphasizes a play of light and shadow and picks up on seasonal changes. In the summer, the protrusions texture the façade with stark shadows, and in the winter the texture transforms through bricks creating shelves for snow to fall on.
为了强调项目的几何简洁性，将所有线性条中都塞入相邻的拱顶空间中。进入房屋后，访客经过餐吧区，然后进入一楼宽敞且通风的居住空间。几何图形将这些生活空间连接在一起，突显了饮食男女的本性。通过在拱形顶棚中切割和剥离，通高的屋顶意味着释放的时刻。上面的天窗充满了自然光。→
To emphasize the project’s geometric simplicity, all circulation, services, and entry conditions are tucked into a linear bar which runs adjacent the vault. Upon entering the house, visitors begin in a compressed service ‘bar’, which then opens into the ground floor’s expansive and airy living spaces. Throughout the length of the ground floor, the barrel vault’s persistent geometry connects these living spaces, accentuating the client’s desire for connectivity in food preparation, eating and socializing. While the barrel vault brings these spaces together, moments of articulation and relief are found through tangential peels and cuts in the vaulted ceiling. the kitchen opens and is flooded with natural light from a skylight above.
