Paul McClean | Skylark住宅项目

 

Skylark占地30744平方英尺,因位于西好莱坞的Skylark路上而得名。建筑拥有多层采光井,采光井上建有一座桥,由此进入建筑内部。在建筑的上层,另外两架桥连接卧室和这个建筑的亮点——双层客厅和阁楼。

Skylark, so named because of its location on Skylark Lane in West Hollywood, was built on a 30,744 square-foot lot. A bridge over a multilevel light well provides entry to the home. On the upper level, two more bridges are employed to connect the bedrooms to the highlight of this home, a dual story living room and loft.

 

 

这些空间都安装了倾斜的玻璃墙,升起后可当作露台的顶篷。Paul McClean(保罗·麦克莱恩)以巧妙模糊建筑内外空间的分隔线而著名,Skylark也不例外,通过采用玻璃墙面,建筑内部和外部的地面成为了一个连贯的空间。

These spaces have tilting glass walls that lift up to transform into canopies over the terrace. Paul McClean is known for seamlessly blurring the lines between the interiors and exteriors of the homes he designs, and this home is no exception. The interior and exterior decks become an uninterrupted living space through use of the glass walls.

 

 

McClean的设计的另一大特点就是水景观。Skylark有一个水幕墙,通向下方的庭院,将地下室分为两部分。除了5个卧室,建筑里还包括2个办公室,一个娱乐室,兼起居室和家庭活动空间,还有一个健身房。上一层也有几间卧室,包括一个主卧套间。大露台、厨房、餐厅和客厅都设在建筑的中间这一层,面积比上一层和地下室要小得多。

Another common detail found in McClean’s homes is a water feature. This home has a water wall that feeds to the court below, which splits the basement into two parts. In addition to five bedrooms, this home also includes two offices, an entertainment room, living and family spaces, and a gym. The upper level houses the bedrooms, including a master bedroom suite. Large terraces, kitchen, dining and living spaces are contained on the main floor, which is considerably smaller than the upper level or basement.

 

 

设计师说,“这个建筑处处充满动感,该项目的各个元素分开探索其间的空间和视野,空间入口狭窄,地方小,随之我们想出了一个不寻常的解决方案,选择把建筑大部分的空间放在上层或是地下。”建筑的地面使用了Caliza Gris石灰石,Visconte和Calacatta Gold大理石,内墙使用津巴布韦黑花岗岩,外墙使用灰色的玄武岩。McClean设计的建筑都需有美景的陪伴,如Skylark,就享有洛杉矶西侧的风景和海景。

The architect explains, “This house is all about movement, with the elements of the program pulled apart to explore the spaces and views found in between. The constricted site entrance and lack of space for an entry led to the unusual solution of placing most of the program above and below the ground plane.” Materials used for this home include Caliza Gris limestone for the floors, Visconte, and Calacatta Gold marble and, Absolute Black Zimbabwe granite for the interior walls and gray basalt for the exterior walls. No McClean home would be complete without stellar views, in this case, of the west side of Los Angeles and the ocean.
