Mahon Pool Amenities / Lahznimmo Architects

由专筑网Zia，小R编译

Mahon泳池是一个岩石泳池，位于马鲁布拉海滩的北部Jack Vanny保护区边缘的砂岩峭壁底部。在20世纪50年代到70年代，这里有一组红砖建筑和一个俱乐部会所。这些建筑的表达方式和突出的位置如同眼睛，目睹了时光的流逝。Lahznimmo和土地的传统主人Gadigal，以及这座建筑，向过去致以敬意。

Text description provided by the architects. Mahon Pool is a rock pool located to the North of Maroubra Beach, at the base of a dramatic sandstone outcrop on the edge of Jack Vanny reserve. Between the 1950s and 1970s, a cluster of red brick amenities buildings and a clubhouse were built overlooking the pool. The expression and prominent siting of these structures were seen as an eye saw and their dilapidated condition at end of life. lahznimmo acknowledges the traditional owners of the land, the Gadigal people, on which the building lies, and pays our respects to Elders, past present, and emerging.







兰德威克市议会的要求是对原有设施进行重建，其中包括当地海豹冬季游泳俱乐部的住宿和便利设施，一个无障碍厕所和更衣室，以及从公共停车场到建筑的无障碍通道。新的娱乐设施力求隐退到它所处的壮观的岩石景观中。其位置离悬崖更远，这样一来，海景就得到了突出展现，同时增加了宽大的混凝土围挡。建筑平面是与苏-巴恩斯利景观设计公司紧密合作设计的，在容纳游泳俱乐部功能的同时，也为公众提供了一个会面、休息或活动的场所。

The brief from Randwick City Council was to replace the original buildings, which consisted of accommodation for the local Seals winter swimming club and general amenities and change facilities in addition to the inclusion of an accessible toilet and parents' change room and accessible pathway to the building from the public carpark above. The new amenities building seeks to recede into the dramatic rock outcrop landscape on which it is sited. It has been located further away from the cliff edge, and in doing so, prominent ocean views over the headland have been restored, and a generous concrete skirt added. This concrete plane was resolved closely with Sue Barnsley Landscape Design and accommodates the swimming club BBQs and functions, as well as providing a place for the public to meet, lounge, or move through.



这个项目还提供通向东部海滩海岸步行道的路径，可以穿过Jack Vanny保护区到岬角，并连通新建筑。现有服务基础设施的场地限制和倾斜的地形构成了厕所和淋浴间的线性排布，这些厕所和淋浴间的形态就像它们所在的岩石的一部分。游泳会所在平面上与设施分开，使每个设施都有自己的特性，通过楼梯连接到沿海步行道和停车场。

The siting also provided an opportunity to redirect the popular Eastern Beaches Coastal walkway across Jack Vanny reserve to the headland via a new path that provides on-grade access to the new amenities. The main site constraints of existing services infrastructure and the sloping topography lead to a compact linear arrangement of toilets and shower cubicles, that bend and turn as if part of the rock outcrop on which they sit. The swimming clubhouse is separated in plan from the amenities, allowing each to have its own identity, separated by a stair connection to the coastal walkway and carpark.







同时，项目在建设了混凝土平台层后，底层应用了坚固的预制混凝土板。还有更加轻盈开放的金色阳极氧化铝叶片，这些材料的应用平衡了隐私、自然通风和采光需求。预制混凝土墙板纹理风化的外观由沙色的氧化物基底组成，裸露的玫瑰花岗岩骨料增添了粉红的色调，与裸露的砂岩相呼应。预制板上的通高垂直槽为设施提供了通风措施，且末端的角度可以保护视觉隐私。通往设施的入口是一处预制混凝土缺口，公共洗手台就位于其中，在那里也可以看到公园和海洋景观。

Having established a clean concrete podium level, the materials palette is completed with robust precast concrete panels at a low level, and a lighter, more open zone of gold color anodized aluminum blades- each material applied between strong horizontal lines balancing privacy, natural ventilation, and daylight. The precast concrete wall panels have a textured weathered appearance, consisting of sandy colored oxide base, with exposed rose granite aggregate providing pink hues which echo the colors of the exposed sandstone outcrop. Full-height vertical slots in the precast panels provide ventilation to the amenities, with angled ends to maintain visual privacy. The entry to the amenities is marked by a generous break in the precast concrete wall, with the communal handwash positioned within to look out to the park and ocean views.



高层风扇的固定铝制百叶窗既能保持淋浴间和隔间内的视觉隐私，又能恰到好处地通风和过滤自然光。非成型的混凝土屋顶一路延伸，为设施的入口提供庇护。建筑之间的缝隙处设置了缺口，作为一种微妙的导向姿态。最终的建筑不仅提供了所需的功能，而且将自身嵌入到了壮观唯美的自然景观中，改善了保护区和周围的环境品质。

The fixed aluminum louver blades at high-level fan open and closed at strategic locations both maintain visual privacy within showers and cubicles, but allow breezes and filtered natural light where privacy is less of a concern. An off-form concrete roof extends out to provide shelter beyond the amenity’s entry and is notched at the circulation gap between the buildings as a subtle wayfinding gesture. The resulting building provides not only the briefed functionality but embeds itself into the dramatic landscape and improves view lines and social connections in and around the reserve.
