来自建筑师的描述。现存的已经几次翻新的私人住宅位于布达佩斯(意为古罗马浴场)。其业主为当代艺术的热衷者。该建筑两侧平行于街道,被建筑师得以扩建。此举,加之重量较轻的上层建筑和低坡屋顶,的目的在于尽可能地压缩该建筑结构。
From the architect. The existing and already several times refurbished private house lies on the Római fürdő area of Budapest (meaning Roman Bath). Its owners are enthusiastic fanciers of contemporary art. Parallel to the street both sides of the building have been enlarged by the architects. By doing this, together with the light weight superstructure and the low-pitched roof their aim was to construct as compact a building volume as possible.
建筑外形的设计灵感来自罗马的内院式住宅,因此屋顶向内倾斜,这是罗马时代建筑传统的重新诠释。当代材料的使用,不仅反映了建筑结构的扩大,也体现了业主对新的和不熟悉的建筑解决方案的开放性。
The form of the building was inspired by the Roman atrium houses, and hence the inward inclination of the roof is a reinterpretation of the roman era’s building traditions. The usage of contemporary materials not only reflects the structure of the enlarged house but also the openness of the owners towards new and unfamiliar architectural solutions.
