Bamboo screens "weave old and new" for artist's residence in India

印度建筑工作室Studio Array用手工编织竹屏风将一座位于德里的住宅和艺术家工作室包裹起来，同时整合了原有的地基和柱子。

这个名为Farm 8的项目专为探索可持续、零浪费生活方式的艺术家群体设计，它既可以用作住宅，也可以作为公众活动的场所。

Indian architecture practice Studio Array has used hand-woven bamboo screens to wrap this home and artist's studio in Delhi, which incorporated existing foundations and columns.
Called Farm 8, the project was designed for a collective of artists exploring a sustainable, waste-free method of living known as permaculture, to be used as both a residence and a site for public engagement programmes.

场地上留存了先前建造的地基和柱子。借鉴永续农业的零浪费理念，Studio Array一开始就打算将这些元素融入新的设计中。

一个由黑色钢材轻型结构构成、填充着编织竹材的住宅，环绕着原本的柱子，形成了由单坡屋顶构成的空间集群，周围是宽敞的花园。

A previous attempt to construct a building on the site had left foundations and columns in place. Drawing on the no-waste approach of permaculture, Studio Array's starting point was to integrate these into the new design.
A lightweight structure of black steel, infilled with woven bamboo, encloses the existing columns, creating a cluster of mono-pitched volumes surrounded by an expansive garden.

“大概在十年前，客户打算在场地上建造一个艺术工作室，当时浇筑了地基和柱子，不幸的是，由于不可预见的原因，现场工作停滞了。” Studio Array解释说，“艺术家住宅既覆盖了旧结构，又通过使用轻质钢材、玻璃、竹子和木质干墙结构进行干预，形成结构、材质上的对比。”

"Almost a decade ago, the clients intended to use the site as an artist's studio space for themselves – foundations and columns were thus cast at the time, unfortunately the on-site work was stalled for unforeseen reasons," explained Studio Array.
"The artist's residency caps and envelopes the old structure while creating a structural contrast by intervening with lightweight steel, glass, bamboo and wooden drywall construction."

东部的两个卧室区通过浴室分隔开，编织竹屏风通向半开放的砖铺庭院和花园。

工作室和厨房位于西侧，窗户洒下日光，高而倾斜的屋顶和大面积的落地玻璃与花园紧密相连。

在新旧之间、室内外之间、公共与私密之间编织出联系，这就是主要的设计理念。”建筑工作室表示，“通过效仿坐在树下的体验，从现有的柱子网格结构中凿出半开放的空间，即塑造一种安全感，又不会使空间完全封闭。”

Two bedroom blocks to the east each contain a pair of bedrooms separated by a bathroom, with areas of the woven bamboo screens opening out onto a mixture of semi-enclosed and open brick-paved patios and gardens.
Studio workspaces and a kitchen sit to the west, illuminated by windows in the high, pitched roofs and areas of full-height glazing that create a close connection to the garden.
"A weave between the old and the new, the outdoor and the indoor and the public and the private became the paramount idea," said the studio.
"Emulating the experience of sitting under a tree, semi-open spaces were carved out of the existing column grid structure to offer a sense of protection, without creating enclosures."

室内外材料的选择和使用既简单又原始，随着时间流逝会自然风化，与花园和周边环境融为一体。

除了为建筑物营造透气、半透明特质的竹屏风外，粉刷的墙壁、混凝土地板和裸露的钢结构天花板实现了室外到室内的连续性。

The material palette, both inside and out, was defined by simple, raw materials that will weather over time, bedding into the garden and surroundings.
As well as the bamboo screens, which create a permeable, translucent shell for the building, continuity from the outside to the interiors was created with plastered walls, concrete floors and exposed steel frame ceilings.

“竹屏风随着时间的推移将会老化，颜色也随之改变，作为对不可预测的衰老过程的一种致敬，将岁月交给自然。” 建筑事务所说道，“半开放式亭子中使用的无砂浆砖地板也被设计成随着时间推移而老化和退色的特性，允许野草和景观进入建筑空间。”

"The bamboo screens will age and change colour over time, as an ode to the unforgiving ageing process, mimicking and inviting nature to take over for years to follow," said the studio.
"The brick flooring sans mortar used in the semi-open pavilions is also designed to age and desaturate with time, with the possibility of allowing grass, weeds and the landscape to enter the built space."
