台湾Soar 设计工作室在台中市翻新了一座20世纪60年代的房子，营造出开放且连通的空间，向外可看到一系列的花园露台。
   
该住宅的现有砖结构已经过时，需要进行大规模的现代化建设，以适应一个年轻家庭的需要，他们原先认为应先拆除再进行重建。

Taiwanese firm Soar Design Studio has refurbished a 1960s house in the city of Taichung, creating open and connected spaces that look out onto a series of garden terraces.
The existing brick structure of the residence had become outdated and required significant modernisation to suit the needs of a young family, who had originally considered demolishing it and rebuilding.
   

Soar 设计工作室与建筑师Tien-Chu Chen合作完成了这项改造，其主要目的之一是改善内外空间的连接，包括一个紧凑的花园和各种阳台。
   
该项目名为Wabi-Sabi住宅，基于日本审美原则——美丽的事物也是有所缺陷，并非尽善尽美的。

One of the key aims of the renovation, which Soar Design Studio completed in collaboration with architect Tien-Chu Chen, was to improve the connection between the interior and external spaces including a compact garden and various balconies.
The project is titled Wabi-Sabi House, after the Japanese aesthetic principle of celebrating beauty that is imperfect, impermanent or incomplete.
   

开放式布局使厨房、用餐区和休息室直接通向露台，延伸了建筑物外立面和边界墙之间的空间感。
   
“我们减少了内部空间，增加了露台或阳台的面积以带来户外景观，”建筑师雷昌说道。

An open-plan layout enables the kitchen, dining area and lounge to open directly onto decked platforms that extend these spaces into patios squeezed between the building's facades and the boundary wall.
"We decreased the interior space to increase the area of the patio or balconies floor by floor to bring in the outdoor landscape," architect Ray Chang .
   

建筑西侧，一部分墙体被移除，以一排向外旋转的玻璃门代替，朝向种满植物的花园。一排钢型工字梁加入到新开口中以加强结构。

On the west side of the building, a section of the wall was removed and replaced with a row of glazed doors that pivot outwards onto a garden planted with trees. A row of steel I-beams was incorporated into the new opening to reinforce the structure.
   

在休息区，木制甲板从内延伸到外部，形成统一的元素，并进一步延伸到整个内部，通过玻璃墙直至花园。
   
上部楼层的垂悬部分遮蔽着下面的外部甲板区域，滑动玻璃门将空间打开，与元素相呼应。

In the lounge area, a wooden deck extends from inside to outside, creating a consistent element that is complemented by a countertop which extends the full length of the interior and continues through the glazed wall to the garden.
The external decked area is sheltered beneath an overhanging section of the floor above, with a sliding glass door opening the space up to the elements.
   

为了应对台湾的热带气候，该建筑设有一系列的深阳台以遮住窗户，并有助于将凉爽的空气引入内部。在周围栽植树木，为居住者提供额外的遮荫和隐私空间，也为居住区提供了绿色景观。

In response to Taiwan's tropical climate, the building features a series of deep balconies that shade the windows and help to draw cool air into the interior. Trees were introduced around the perimeter to provide additional shade and privacy for the occupants, as well as offering a view of greenery from inside the living areas.
   

楼梯上升到一楼，包括两间卧室，一间浴室和一个休息室，通往设有简单木凳的大阳台，可欣赏周围社区的风景。
   
该生活空间上方的空缺处，允许上层的自然光过滤，并在两层之间形成视觉联系。

A staircase ascends to a first floor accommodating two bedrooms, a bathroom and a lounge that opens out onto a large balcony with a simple wooden bench and views of the surrounding neighbourhood.
A void above this living space allows natural light from the level above to filter down and creates a visual link between the two storeys.
   

“我们想要改善家庭的互动，无论是在水平还是在垂直方向上，”张说道。“所以我们尽量减少每个房间的面积，以此增加家庭公共空间的面积。
   
“通高空间也适用于二楼父母房间和孩子们的楼层之间的家庭互动，我们希望他们在家里的每个角落都能享受到家庭的联系。

"We wanted to improve the family interaction, whether in the horizontal or in the vertical dimension," said Chang. "So we minimised each room's size to increase the area of the public space of family."
"The double-height void is also for family interaction between the parent's rooms on the second floor and children's floor above. We hope they can always enjoy this family interaction in every corner in the house."
   

二楼空间的两侧窗口，增加了内部空间之间的进一步对话。这层楼包括另一间卧室，一间盒子式房间，和一间位于滑动门通往阳台一侧的房间。

Windows on either side of the void on the second floor add a further dialogue between the internal spaces. This storey contains another bedroom, a box room and a landing lined on one side with sliding doors that open onto a balcony.
   

建筑师试图通过使用天然材料（例如石头、木材、金属和混凝土）来保留原建筑的特性，以补充现有内部元素的重要性。

The architects attempted to retain the character of the original building by using natural materials such as stone, wood, metal and concrete to complement the materiality of the existing interior elements.
      

例如，带有古典木制扶手和旋转式扶手栏杆的楼梯被保留下来，因为它代表了建筑最独特的原始特征之一。
   
Soar 设计工作室以前的项目为一间美发沙龙，在那儿客户面对面坐在一张长桌子的周围。

The staircase with its classical wooden handrail and turned balustrades, for example, was preserved as it represents one of the building's most distinctive original features.
Among Soar Design Studio's previous projects is a hair salon where customers sit face-to-face around one long table.
