A+I and Unionworks raise Bridge House to protect sensitive Hamptons environment

纽约A+I与Unionworks事务所在长岛Sagaponack池塘旁侧设计了一座住宅，建筑的两个体量通过一个封闭的桥体得以连接，场地上的植物而在连接体下方生长。

“桥”住宅是A+I事务所设计的首个地面住宅项目，该事务所也擅长于办公室内的设计。

该事务所与Unionworks联合设计了这座宽敞的私人住宅，建筑位于Hamptons镇，总面积为12000平方英尺（约1115平方米）。

New York studios A+I and Unionworks have completed a house near Long Island's Sagaponack Pond with two volumes connected by an enclosed bridge, allowing the site's native shrubbery to grow beneath.
Bridge House is the first ground-up residential project by A+I, or Architecture+Information, which typically works on office interiors.
The studio collaborated with Unionworks on the expansive private home, located near the Hamptons town of Bridgehampton and totals 12,000 square feet (1,115 square metres)

建筑师为了应对生态系统对于建筑的影响，最终决定将建筑抬高，防止洪水的侵袭，并且也减少对土地的影响。

设计团队认为：“三个体量高出地面的最低部分为12英尺（约3.7米），这让人联想起一座桥，而这座建筑似乎漂浮在场地上，这里则有着景观草地与灌木。”

Responding to the property's fragile ecosystem, the architects decided to partially raise the house to safeguard against flooding and minimise the impact on the land.
"Because the lowest of the three volumes is elevated 12 feet (3.7 metres) above the ground plain, evoking a bridge, the home seems to float above a bio-swale with native grasses, shrubs and wildflowers created by LaGuardia Design," said the team.

“这种策略使得在暴雨或者洪水期间，水流可以从建筑下方穿过，从而不会对建筑造成影响。”

“桥体”的每一端都通过一个体量得以支撑，其中包含了家庭公共区域，这两个地面结构相互平行地与桥体相交，这样连接的体量总数共为三个。

"This strategic landscaping allows water during major storms and coastal flooding to pass underneath the structure without harm," they added
Each end of the "bridge" is supported by a grounded volume that contains part of the home's communal areas. The two ground structures are parallel, intersected by the bridge, bringing the total of connected volumes to three.

这些建筑由细长的灰色砖石建造而成，并且覆盖着垂直的木材面板，建筑师认为这与“传统的Hamptons风格并不相同”。

“我们希望这座建筑和Hamptons的其他建筑并不相同。”

These buildings were constructed with slender grey bricks and clad in vertical wooden siding, a choice that the architects describe as "a significant departure from the typical Hamptons shingle style".
"[The property] needed to be unlike any other Hamptons home," said the architects.

在地面层，外部完成面应用了裸露的灰色砖石，除此之外还有落地推拉窗，这让起居空间延伸到室外。

建筑师认为：“深色的木材应用于立面之中，强调了空间感和建筑性格。”

桥体延伸至上方，构成了住宅的顶层，并且在北侧和下部楼层相交的部分构成悬臂。

染色的木材覆盖了建筑立面和下部空间，这里是两侧建筑之间的过道。

On the ground floor, the exterior finishes alternate between the exposed grey bricks and floor-to-ceiling windows that slide open, extending the living space into the home's multiple terraces.
"Dark-stained, quarter-sawn wood wraps the facade, lending dimension and character," said the architects.
The bridge extends over the grounded volumes and becomes the top floor, cantilevering where it meets the grounded volume on the north side.
Stained wooden planks also clad its elevations and underside, which shelters a walkway between the two ends of the building.

住宅的内部包含有青铜色的厨房橱柜，随着时间的推移会构成古铜色。

白色橡木面板墙体构成了充足的存储空间，一个悬挂式楼梯则通过细长的金属支架构成了遮蔽的效果。

The home's interior palette includes accents like bronze kitchen cabinets, which are intended to develop a patina over time.
White oak-paneled walls offers plenty of storage space, and a dramatic, suspended staircase creates a screening effect with the spacing of its slender metal supports.

桥体的结构包含有五间卧室，一侧则是通向屋顶露台的主卧，在楼下有四间卧室。

长久以来，Hamptons一直都是纽约周边的好去处，这片位于长岛南岸的场地有着许多迷人的住宅，近期的其他项目有一座上世纪70年代住宅的改造，当时的设计方为Charles Gwathmey，除此之外还有一座由Neil Logan设计的石材住宅，这座建筑有着如金字塔般的屋顶。

The bridge structure contains five bedrooms, including the primary suite at one end, which opens out to a rooftop terrace. Downstairs, there are four additional bedrooms in one of the wings.
The Hamptons has long served as an escape from New York City, and this stretch of Long Island's southern shore is home to many impressive properties. Others to recently complete include Worrell Yeung's renovation of a 1970s house designed by Charles Gwathmey and a stone-clad residence with a pyramidal roof by Neil Logan.
