Building in the Cracks 夹缝中的建筑

    The balcony is located at the back of building 5, on the north-east side. There is sunshine for 2 hours in the morning, and for the rest of the day the sunshine is blocked by the surrounding buildings. It is in the middle of the building, with a hostile environment outside. My friends wanted to create a characteristic sunroom with privacy.

    How to crack the above unfavorable situation, we put forward the principle of’no making,no breaking’, and go with the trend.

    Firstly, the functional arrangement was spread along the trapezoidal zone of the area. A landscape platform was set up on the north-facing side to connect the indoor and outdoor areas. The south-west side is a relaxing tea-tasting area and the triangular area on the south-east is a patio space.


    阳台处于5号建筑大楼的后侧,位于东北面,阳光照射仅为清晨2小时,其余时间被周边建筑阻挡,不受阳光照射,外界环境恶劣,处于建筑夹缝之中。好友意将此搭建成有特色的阳光房,同时又具备私密性。

    如何破解以上不利的局面,我们提出了不破不立设计原理,顺势而为。

    首先从功能布置入手,沿区域梯形地带展开,朝北一侧设置景观平台,连通室内外,西南面为休闲品茶区,东南面三角区域为天井空间。
