       近日，Piercy & Company设计事务所在伦敦西南部一座十九世纪建筑的基础上重新修建了一座家庭住宅，并在两堵斑驳的山墙上增加了一个玻璃楼梯间。

       这座三层的Kew房位于英国皇家植物园附近一处保护区内，是由一位工程师居住使用。该建筑很尊重这里的自然景观，建筑风格虽融合了它的历史元素，但却形成了一个丰富多样的现代家居环境。

       为此，设计师保留了原建筑前面虽老化但仍坚固的山墙，然后，复制它的形状将原建筑加高，塑造了一座两层建筑。

       建筑外面包裹了一层预制耐候钢，与原砖墙交相辉映。在一些细节处理中，钢材料也应用到窗户，上面散布着一些不规则的孔洞，光线能透过这些孔洞照射到室内，同时，室内主人还可欣赏到外面的风景。

       耐候钢的深橙色色调和墙上的孔洞设计摹仿了光影斑驳的光和英国皇家植物园附近秋天的色调。

       一个玻璃楼梯间将两座翅膀形建筑连接在一起，楼梯是进入建筑的入口，顶部有一处露台形成一个幽静的庭院。在底层，一大片建筑延伸出来的空间再次将这两座翅膀形建筑融为一体，并作为庭院使用。

       建筑内部布局完全按照家庭的需要设计。可以想象，孩子们在房间里追逐嬉戏、夏季晚餐在室外欢快地进行、安静的角落里举办一些社交活动。还有洗衣房的位置、地下室的利用。这些布局的安排都得益于主人的丰富想象和设计师的精心布置。

       两座翅膀形建筑布局很相似，都是一层设有客厅，二层设有卧室。厨房和家庭餐厅坐落在北面，这里还设有洗衣房和餐具室。建筑南端有一处休闲室设置在地平面负一米处，使建筑看起来错落有致。

       这座被称作“温暖小屋”的建筑，墙体还保留着一些外露的砖墙特征，墙面嵌有橡木橱柜，给室内增加了不少空间。一个狭窄弯曲的采光井可以将自然光引进到室内，让居住在这里的家庭也能充分感受阳光的沐浴。

       房间看上去不是很严肃的那种风格，相反显得很温馨，到处都有意想不到的空间和照射进来的的光线，一些组合的空间也让人感到舒适、惬意。

       这个巨大的建筑空间，建造的时候，设计师甚至可以把这里当成一个现场细木工制品工作间，运用各种建筑技术，让这里的装饰和家具显得与众不同。

Weathered steel sits alongside ageing brickwork at Kew House by Piercy & Company

Architecture studio Piercy & Company has slotted a family house behind a nineteenth-century stable facade in south-west London, creating a pair of rusted gable walls with a glazed stairwell in between.
Located within a conservation zone near Kew Gardens, the three-storey Kew House was designed by London studio Piercy & Company to respect the scale and massing of its historic surroundings, but also create a generous modern home for a family.
To achieve this, the architect retained the ageing stable wall at the front of the property, then replicated its shape to create a pair of matching two-storey wings behind.
Both of these were then clad with pre-weathered steel, providing a counterpoint to the old brickwork. In some places the steel covers the windows, but is speckled with irregular perforations that allow an exchange of light and views.
"The deep orange tones of the weathering steel and the perforations within this skin echo the dappled light and autumnal palette of nearby Kew Gardens," said the architect in a statement.
A glazed stairwell connects the two wings, framing an entrance patio at the front of the property and a secluded courtyard at the rear. There's also a large basement that spans the site to unite the wings on the lowest level.
The interior layout was arranged according to how the family expected to use the space, which the architect says "ranged over imagining the children running about the house, summer dinners spilling outside and the balance of quiet nooks with social spaces, to pragmatic concerns like drying laundry and how to build a boat in the basement."
Both wings contain living rooms on the ground floor and bedroom spaces upstairs. The kitchen and family dining room is located on the northern side, with a laundry room and pantry, while a lounge sits at the southern end and is sunken below ground by a metre.
Referred to as "the snug", this room also features exposed brickwork, built-in oak-veneer cupboards and a narrow curving lightwell.
"The [rooms] are intended to be informal but rich with incidental spaces, unexpected light and complex vertical volumes," said the architect.
The large basement allowed the architects to establish an on-site joinery workshop during the build. This allowed the team to experiment with different construction techniques and put together bespoke panelling and furniture.
The space now functions as a place where one of the residents, who works as an engineer, can focus on personal projects.
