大平层，克制的空间美学
A penthouse features a restrained spatial aesthetic
理性 /Rationality
20世纪，包豪斯主张的理性美学也在一定程度上影响我们，极简的功能主义，并柔化功能主义的机械性，强调人的感官与体验为空间主体。在这里我们探讨的冷静，是居者，是空间本身，是我们对设计的态度，更是艾克建筑对城市形成的一种思考，一个理性的行为。
Rational aesthetics, advocated by the Bauhaus in the 20thcentury, has influenced AD ARCHITECTURE to some extent. Minimalist functionality, which makes functionalism less mechanical, emphasizes people’s senses and experiences as the protagonist in a space. A state of calmness AD ARCHITECTURE explored in this project is not only for the space but also for the dweller, which expresses the practice’s attitude towards design and reflection on the city’s evolution.

项目背景/Background
C宅是一个热爱汽车文化的海归男主的私人空间。该公寓位于历史悠久的潮州，坐拥一线江景的顶层公寓，拥有俯瞰汕头、潮州、揭阳的270度自然景观，简单的居住结构与得天独厚的自然条件给项目的设计工作开展一个具备了自由的基础。
This penthouse is the home of an overseas returnee who is passionate about car culture. It is located in Chaozhou, a city with a long history. Sitting on the top of a tall building, the apartment enjoys a full view of the river and a 270-degree view of natural landscapes in Shantou, Chaozhou and Jieyang. The simple residential structure and favorable natural resources gave the design team much freedom to conceive the home.
非定义的定义——冰与火/Undefined space—Ice & Fire
一个摩托车骑行爱好者，一个热衷于汽车赛道激情的热血青年，内心充满火的气息，又显得格外冷静。我们希望空间是自私的，传达一种自我的性格。在城市上空营造一个自然与和谐放松的居住环境，这是对豪宅的重新审判，空间中人是主体，特别是在家居空间。我们并不想做一个所有人都喜欢的作品，但是它是符合使用者内心的产品，存在即合理。静谧的生活场所，平静、自然、阳光，一个真正属于自己的生活空间。
In addition to motorcycling, the young owner is also keen on car racing. He is passionate inside, and looks calm on the outside. AD ARCHITECTURE hoped to design a dwelling that could represent the occupant’s unique personality. For this, the design team conceived a natural, harmonious and relaxing living environment above the city, which redefines luxurious apartments. People are the protagonist in space, especially in a living space. The designers didn’t try to create a space that everybody likes, but one that suits the user’s taste. It’s a tranquil living environment with quietness, nature and Sunshine. A living space truly belongs to the dweller himself.

开放与克制/Openness & Restraint
开放的空间布局，极简克制美学，空间大面积留白，显现空间的宁静与包容性。丰富的白色阶之间相互克制，让居者与汽车的生活气息充斥着空间的公共部分，克制出一种自我的力量。克制自己的欲望，克制自己的情绪，生活丰富而不沉迷，感情充沛而不肆意，内心纯净，生活极简。
Open layout, coupled with minimalist restrained aesthetics and large areas of blank surfaces, reveals a sense of serenity and inclusiveness. White color shades produce a background for highlighting the owner and his hobbies, and also create a calming home that evokes a restrained state of mind, sensitive yet pure emotions and a minimalist lifestyle, which cater to the personality of the occupant.
自然与体验/Natural Experience
材料系统刚柔，整体以米白色的艺术漆与不锈钢搭配小面积的木质感，干净自然的同时传达了材料本身一点点温度，地面纯色大规格岩板，自然平和。卧室的实木质感的木地板，让整体的睡眠空间更加温暖细腻。这是一种极度舒适的克制。
Dominant white coatings, stainless steel and wooden veneers embody the combination of hardness and softness, generate a clean and natural ambience, while also showing the materials’ warmth. The large solid-colored sintered stone floorings in open areas give a natural and peaceful feeling, while wooden floorboards in the bedrooms create a warm and delicate sleep environment. This kind of restrained design language results in a comfortable space.
自由平面/Free Plane
在空间布局上，在各个功能空间之间通过灰空间来串联，利用原来大阳台钢结构空间，将家人交流的中心结合景观阳台，打造一个自然的舒适用餐空间。
Based on the spatial pattern, functional areas are connected by transitional spaces. Taking advantage of the existing steel structure space at the large balcony, the design team integrated family communication center with landscape balcony to form a natural and comfortable dining space.
入口灰空间链接了客厅与餐厅，8米的尺度有效的增加了体验的品质感，墙地一体的水磨石强调了空间的区域感，让各个空间自由的状态下显得非常的精确。这是进入这个领域的第一感，当我们打开门的瞬间，我们开始感受到这种空间的气息，墙面艺术品成为了引导人的方向。第二中心我们可以看到空间的中心玻璃盒中的艺术潮玩——大型的反浩克装甲。这个玻璃盒是设计师为主人提供的一个属于他自己，放他喜欢的物品的地方，具有强烈展示性与业主自我的宣誓。
The 8-meter-long transitional space at the entrance not only links living room with dining room, but also effectively enhances the experience. Terrazzo extending from floor to wall strengthens a sense of boundary, making distinct areas clear. Upon opening the door, the occupant can immediately experience a free spatial ambience. Artworks on the wall help guide the circulation route. In the center, there’s an artistic and trendy toy inside a glass box — a huge Hulkbuster armor. This glass box allows the owner to place his favorite objects, generating a strong display effect and voicing his personality as well.
沙发区与开放式书房、展示柜、水吧、赛车模拟器、茶吧，构成了开放的空间逻辑，通过玻璃盒子，地面高差来区分，功能之间没有绝对的分割，强调自由轻松的流动空间，让体验感产生互动，让各个功能区之间的人产生更多的互动。
Sofa area, together with open study, display cabinet, bar counter, car racing simulator and tea bar, forms an open spatial realm. Functional areas are distinguished by glass boxes and the floor’s height difference, without absolute division. The design aims to create a free and relaxing flowing space to enhance interaction in between different functional areas.
卧室空间中的休息区、更衣区、洗漱区之间的关系处于半开放状态，再一次强调开放自由的居住体验。
The semi-open relationship among resting area, dressing area and washing area in the bedroom strengthens an open and free living experience.
模糊性/Ambiguity
总设计师谢培河认为，居住环境不止于居住，而办公环境也并非只限于办公，设计不一定要很强调这个属性。特别是在当下疫情使我们的办公居家生活混合的常态下，空间更没有既定的界限，也不需要所谓的风格，而我们更应该是探讨它未来的可能性，这是为城市的形成中的未来进行努力，我们想这样的过程并不是结果，但是这个行为是必然的。
Chief designer Xie Peihe believes that the design of residence and office doesn’t necessarily have to be confined to their inherent attributes, especially when working from home becomes a new normal in the post-pandemic era. In such a context, different space typologies tend to have no definite boundary and hence shouldn’t be restricted to certain design styles. He thinks that designers should never stopping exploring more future possibilities of space and contribute to forging the future of cities.
