来自建筑事务所的描述：JCI工作室对加拿大多伦多Yonge街1133号进行了大规模的改造，让这座80年代的建筑更加现代化，也更具多功能性，其中增加了使用者的便利及无障碍设施，大大提升建筑的能源效益。该项目表达了建筑业的发展趋势，在改建的过程中应用现有结构，而非重新设计新结构，同时减少碳排放量。JCI工作室的负责人Sue- Jean Chung说：“这个项目给我们带来了契机，让我们能够更好地探索关于‘能源’的概念，并且重新定义现有建筑，而不是将它拆除，现有的建筑有着坚固的结构，我们可以采用可持续策略，减少碳和垃圾的排放。”

Text description provided by the architects. Studio JCI has completed a major renovation of 1133 Yonge Street, completely modernizing the 80s mid-rise, mixed-use building, increasing the amenities and accessibility for occupants, and upgrading the building’s energy efficiency. This project reflects a global trend in the design and construction industry that favours working with existing structures, as opposed to building new; in an effort to reduce carbon emissions and waste. “The project provided us with a real opportunity to explore the concept of ‘embodied energy’ and the environmental benefits of reusing an existing building rather than demolishing and rebuilding it,” states Sue- Jean Chung, Studio JCI Principal. “The existing building’s solid structure contributed to the decision to adopt a more sensitive and sustainable approach to construction, reducing the number of carbon emissions and waste to landfills.”



这座建筑旁边是多伦多火车北站，建筑师保留了许多原有特征，其中包括混凝土结构和圆角形态，建筑外立面是高效的玻璃幕墙，这样在内部的使用者就能够看到城市景观，并且也强调了建筑优雅、柔和的外观形态。建筑南立面的悬臂式阳台构成了细部形态，也构成了特别的被动式降温舒适空间，JCI工作室负责人Jaegap Chung说：“Yonge街1133号位于多伦多城市中心，位置比较突出，因此我们希望能够很好地连接街道和行人，因此我们在大街一侧设计了全新的公共空间。”

The building sits adjacent to the city’s historic North Toronto Railway Station, and JCI has preserved many of its original features, such as its concrete structure and unique rounded corners. They re-clad the building with a high-efficiency curtain wall, allowing for panoramic downtown views, from inside, and accentuating the building’s elegant, curved exterior. Cantilevered steel balconies add interest and detail to the building’s southern façade, and provide additional passive cooling and amenity space. “1133 Yonge Street is a prominent location, in downtown Toronto, says Studio JCI Principal Jaegap Chung, so they really wanted to better connect the building with the streetscape and passing pedestrians. The renovation includes a new public lobby on Yonge Street.”







JCI工作室在这座建筑的顶层为Waypoint Investment Partners事务所设计了全新的办公室，在这里能够俯瞰多伦多城市和火车北站的钟塔。这个办公室有着多种多样的办公空间，例如开放式概念办公区、合作空间、私人办公区、会议室、休息室、就餐区等等。弯曲的木材在接待区到内部之间构成了完美的衔接，同时呼应了建筑外立面的弯曲线条。办公空间内的光线较为充裕，建筑师应用了天然的橡木面板、裸露的白色混凝土天花板，以及悬挂灯具。大型悬挂灯具投射出柔和的灯光，在空间中划分了正式和非正式聚会区域，除此之外，一系列有着黑色边框的玻璃隔板贯穿应用在办公区域里，清晰地划分了公共和私人区。

As part of the renovation, Studio JCI designed a new office for Waypoint Investment Partners on the top floor of 1133 Yonge Street, which has panoramic views of downtown Toronto and the historic North Toronto railway station clock tower. This office was designed to provide a variety of workspaces, from open-concept, collaborative spaces, to private offices, meeting rooms, and a lounge and eating area. A curved wood accent wall provides a seamless transition from the reception area to the rest of the suite and visually references the curved facade of the building’s exterior. The office has an airy, light-filled atmosphere, achieved through the use of natural, white oak wall paneling, and flooring, along with an exposed whitewashed concrete ceiling and suspended light fixtures. Wide, suspended, circular lights softly demarcate the informal gathering space, and this light, the transparent design is carried throughout the office areas through a series of connective glass partitions, framed in black, which provide a clear border between the public and private areas.



JCI工作室还为Timbercreek投资公司在Yonge街1133号的3层设计了名为“Exchange”的合作办公空间，这个空间很好地表达了全球办公环境的发展趋势，即休闲、开放的整体环境，空间中包含有大型开放式厨房和休息区，以及公共和私人办公区域。这些空间同样有着纯粹的线条和中性的色彩，厨房和接待区的精致玻璃抵消了石材的厚重感受，JCI工作室的负责人Sue- Jean Chung说道：“人们在休息区可以感受到城市中心的广阔美景，这里的大型照明装置都有着色彩斑斓的手工吹制玻璃球体形态。”

Studio JCI also designed the innovative co-working space, The Exchange, located on the third floor of 1133 Yonge Street, for Timbercreek Investment. This space reflects the global trend in office design towards more casual, open-concept work environments. The Exchange has a large open kitchen and lounge space for members who rent the office spaces, which range from shared communal desks to private executive offices. These, along with the large boardroom are designed with clean lines and a neutral palette, and heavy stone elements are offset by delicate glass elements in the kitchen and reception areas. “The lounge offers expansive southern views of the downtown skyline, and features a playful large-scale lighting installation comprised of hand-blown glass orbs in a variety of colours,” says Studio JCI Principal Sue- Jean Chung.
