女性会员俱乐部Allbright在伦敦梅菲尔区开设了一个专供女性艺术家创作的五层展厅。其室内设计由Suzy Hoodless完成,艺术作品由策展人Beth Greenacre挑选。该俱乐部旨在为伦敦市中心的会员提供一个女性友好的避风港,不过男性客人也可以入住。
Woman-only member’s club Allbright has opened a venue in London’s Mayfair with work exclusively by female artists across its five floors.The interior design was completed by Suzy Hoodless, with art chosen by curator Beth Greenacre.The club is intended to provide a female-friendly haven for members in central London, although male guests are admitted.
Greenacre挑选了80多位女性艺术家的120多件作品,跨度60年的制作。“不用说,只有女艺术家。这是一个有趣的主张,只考虑女性艺术家和女性观众的内容。”Greenacre说。
Greenacre chose over 120 works work by more than 80 female artists, spanning 60 years of making.”It goes without saying that it’s only female artists. It’s an interesting proposition thinking about female artists and content for a female audience.” said Greenacre.
Greenacre在早期与室内设计师 Suzy Hoodless一起,了解Suzy Hoodless所追求的美学和她对这个空间的愿景。他们一起观察颜色、图案和材料,以确保艺术与整体设计相呼应。Allbright的创始人给Hoodless的设计理念是创造一个“女人味但不少女”的室内环境,让女性成员感到舒适,但不会疏远他们的男性客人。
Greenacre sat down with interior designer Hoodless at an early stage to “understand the aesthetic that Suzy’s working towards and her vision” for the space.Together they looked at colours, patterns and materials to ensure that the art responded to the overall design.The brief given to Hoodless by the founders of Allbright was to create an interior that was “feminine but not girly”, which made the female members comfortable but would not alienate their male guests.
这座建筑曾经是一家拍卖行的总部,所以他们想在设计中反映这段历史。“Suzy的目标是用木地板和镶板墙的调色板将建筑设计恢复为优雅的伦敦联排别墅,这将与它所在的艺术世界产生共鸣,”Allbright的联合创始人Anna Jones说。
The building used to be the headquarters of an auction house, so they wanted to reflect that history in the design.”Suzy’s aim was to restore the building into an elegant London townhouse using a palette of timber floors and panelled walls which would resonate with the art world in which it resides,” said Anna Jones, co-founder of Allbright.
入口处设有带镜面吊灯的镜面墙,而一楼的小酒馆则配有蓝色皮革长椅和带圆形靠背的亮绿色Thonet餐椅。大理石顶部的酒吧采用相匹配的绿色装饰,配有高脚凳。上面的楼层是致力于健康服务,有健身工作室、治疗室和有美发沙龙。三楼是一个联合办公空间。
The entrance features mirrored walls with a statement chandelier, while the first-floor brasserie has blue leather banquette seating and bright green Thonet dining chairs with rounded backrests.A marble-topped bar is upholstered in a matching green with high-bar stools in a paler green shade.The floor above is devoted to wellbeing, with a fitness studio, treatment rooms and a hair salon with bold wallpaper depicting blue leaves.The third floor is a co-working space.
隐藏式座位和圆桌的混合可以灵活的工作,或者举办书籍会或葡萄酒团体等聚会。一层是一个全天营业的餐厅和酒吧,通往一个铺着瓷砖的户外屋顶露台。餐椅的软垫是粉红色和绿色天鹅绒的结合,环绕着桌子。粉色调贯穿于软垫皮革吧台。酒吧是由镜面金制面板支撑的,瓶子储存在嵌入拱门的架子上。
A mixture of hidden-away seating for one and round tables allows for flexible working, or gatherings such as book or wine groups.Up one level is an all-day restaurant and bar with access to a tiled outdoor roof terrace. Dining chairs are upholstered in soft pink and green velvet and set around intimate tables.The pink tones follow through to the upholstered leather bar. The bar itself is backed with mirrored gold panels with bottles stored on shelves in inset arches.
在五楼,阁楼式的活动空间、酒吧和屋顶平台是仿照温室的想法,植物被设置在抹灰的墙壁上。Rattan家具给人一种室内外混合的感觉,天花板的横梁和门的周围都是绿色的。整个浴室都是明亮的颜色,有着纸质墙壁和鲜艳的饰面。在其中一幅作品中,一幅大型ikat版画被明亮的蓝色瓷砖所抵消,而另一幅作品则以克拉伦斯豪宅(Clarence House)的风格龙纹为特色,墙上的瓷砖颜色多样,地上铺着瓷砖地板。另一间浴室漆成金色,带有粉色调。
On the fifth floor, a loft-style events space, bar and further roof terrace is modelled on the idea of a glasshouse with plants set against plastered walls.Rattan furniture gives the feeling of a hybrid indoor-outdoor space, with ceiling beams and door surrounds picked out in green.Bathrooms throughout are brightly coloured with bold papered walls and brightly coloured finishes.In one, a large-scale ikat print is offset by bright blue tiles, whilst another features a stylised dragon print by Clarence House with wall tiles in multiple colours and tiled floors. A further bathroom is painted gold with pink accents.
在室内设计方面,Suzy的灵感来自与萨维尔街(Savile Row)的俱乐部接近。萨维尔街(Savile Row)传统上被认为是专为男士定制的服装地方。然而,Suzy想通过将传统的西装面料,如细羊毛和千鸟格子布融入到设计中来强调其与女性的关联性,创造出一种女性化和富有想象力的转折。
For the interiors, Suzy was inspired by the club’s proximity to Savile Row which is traditionally associated with bespoke tailoring for men, However, Suzy wanted to emphasise its relevance for women by incorporating traditional suit fabrics, such as fine wools and houndstooth checks into the design, creating a feminine and imaginative twist.
