弧形玻璃建筑材料的美！

高端住宅包括28套公寓和3套联排别墅，是伦敦市中心一个罕见的精品开发项目。它位于威斯敏斯特历史悠久的鸟笼道保护区。本项目距离白金汉宫、皇家御苑和威斯敏斯特天主教堂非常近，仅有几分钟的路程。

High-end residential development is a boutique development of 28 apartments and 3 townhouses in Central London. It is located in the historic Birdcage Walk Conservation Area of Westminster. VI Castle Lane is minutes away from the Buckingham Palace, the Royal Parks and Westminster Cathedral .

本项目通过对弓形窗的新颖诠释，重新审视了英国建筑中反复出现的元素。在受高度保护的区域引入当代设计，其复杂的体量使用其扭曲的墙体来协调相互冲突的城市尺度；从豪宅到联排别墅。

弧形玻璃从建筑中切向延伸，扩大了街道层面的空间，提供一种悬浮的半户外空间体验。

VI Castle Lane revisits a recurring element of English architecture through a novel interpretation of the bow window. Introducing contemporary design in a highly protected conservation area, the project’s complex volume uses its curving walls to negotiate conflicting urban scales; from mansions to townhouses. Strikingly protruding in and out, the curved glass extends tangentially from the building to enlarge the living space inhabiting the street as a hovering semi-external spatial experience.

本项目是由Land Securities倡议，并由Michel da Costa Goncalves(DROO)与Nathalie Rozencwajg合作设计。

在处理跨越两条不同特征街道的复杂场地时，DROO设计了一种建筑回应，以确保连续性，同时引入了一个独特的设计。

Designed by Michel da Costa Goncalves (DROO) with the collaboration of Nathalie Rozencwajg the project was initiated by Land Securities (realised by Sons & Co.) with the particular brief of creating an innovative residential development in the midst of Heritage settings. Dealing with a complex site, spanning over two streets of different character, DROO devised an architectural response to ensure continuity whilst introducing a unique design.

场地的特殊之处是位于两种不同的城市形态之间，西侧是传统的伦敦联排别墅，东侧是壮丽的维多利亚式豪宅。

此外，法规监管的历史沉淀，传承积累，形成了一个精细调谐和极其复杂的体量。公寓的核心建筑与家庭式地体量的联排别墅合并。

The particularity of the site resides in siting in between two distinct urban forms, with traditional London townhouse rows to the west and on majestic Victorian Mansions to the east. In addition, historical sediments of legal and regulatory constraints accumulate to form a finely tuned and highly complex volume. The mansion sized core building is merged with domestically scaled volumes of interpretive townhouses.

通过凸形的雕刻体量和凹面玻璃，解决了高层公寓和联排别墅之间的二分法。同时回应当地的限制并提供新的空间类型学，外立面“剥离”成新颖的弓形窗。

The dichotomy of scales between the taller apartment blocks and townhouses is resolved through the sculpted volume of convex and concave bends of curved glass. Simultaneously responding to local constraints and offering a new spatial typology, the fac?ade plane “peels off” into novel bow windows.

DROO的Michel Da Costa Goncalves表示，“对周围建筑的广泛分类，包括窗户元素和砖砌体，形成不对称的设计从立面切向延伸。”新型的弓形窗从平面逐渐过渡到曲面玻璃，从而在室外创造了视觉效果。

优雅地延伸，以扩大使用空间，弓形窗提供半户外空间体验，从内部也可观看城市的壮观景色。漂浮的空间；内外同时进行。

Michel Da Costa Goncalves, DROO  says, ‘The extensive cataloguing of surrounding architectonics, both of window elements and brick masonries, resulted in the asymmetrical design extending tangentially from the faicade plane. The novel bow window progressively moves from planar to tightly curved glass thus creating augmented visual effects both in an out. Elegantly extending from the building to enlarge the living space, the bow window devises a semi-external spatial experience, offering spectacular views of the city from within. A floating space; simultaneously inside and outside.
