Bruno Spaas会走很远的路来实施他认为适合一个项目的材料,对于这个项目,他充分利用了这一点,他既是业主又是建筑师。当Bruno Spaas在2018年决定购买位于安特卫普北部港口区Westkaai的顶层公寓时,它就像一张空白的画布。公寓位于由瑞士建筑师Diener & Diener构思的一栋塔楼的顶层,Bruno Spaas立即看到了它的潜力,首先投入资金设计了一个奢侈的空间,在那里他可以自由发挥非常规的想法和惊喜的元素。
Bruno Spaas will go a long way to implement the materials he finds suitable for a project, and for this one, he makes the most of it, being both the owner and the architect. The penthouse apartment on Westkaai in Antwerp’s northern harbour area was like a blank canvas when Spaas decided to buy it in 2018. Situated on the top floor in a tower building conceived by Swiss architects Diener & Diener, Spaas immediately saw its potential and firstly placed the investment to design an extravagant space where he could play freely with unconventional ideas and elements of surprise.
一打开前门,人们就会立即看到安特卫普市的全景,因为门对面有一个巨大的落地窗。走进入口,除了石头地板,25平方米的门厅就像一个镜子盒子,无休止地反射着城市的景色。无变形的钢化镜和高光泽的油漆表面在公寓中反复出现,它们与空间、反射和透视的感觉相呼应,在橱柜、滑动门、房间隔板上,甚至在厨房抽油烟机的内部都有空间、反射和视角的感觉。
Upon opening the front door, one is met with an immediate panoramic view over the city of Antwerp, due to a sizable floor-to-ceiling window right opposite the door. Stepping inside the entrance only intensifies the sensory experience with an addition of bafflement: except for the stone floor, the 25 square meter foyer is like a mirror box reflecting the city view endlessly. Distortion-free tempered mirror and high-glossy painted surfaces are recurrent in the apartment which play with the feeling of space, reflection, and perspective, on cupboards, sliding doors, room dividers - even on inside of the kitchen extractor hood.
除了几面内墙,地板规划和所有的室内元素都是由Bruno Spaas Architectuur设计和制作的。早在概念设计阶段,Bruno Spaas就设想了一个具有灵活性和开放性的家,因此在整个空间中创造了一个自由流通的空间,没有死角,只是在需要时用门来分隔和增加隐私。与存储解决方案和功能空间一起,如食品室和杂物间,平面设计和布局揭示了对流动和日常使用的透彻理解。
Besides a few carrying internal walls, the floor planning and all the interior elements have been designed and made to measure by Bruno Spaas Architectuur. Already at the beginning of the conceptualisation phase, Spaas visualised a home with flexibility and openness and therefore created a free circulation throughout the whole space with no dead ends, just doors to divide and add privacy when needed. Together with the storage solutions and functional spaces like the pantry and utility room, the plan design and layout reveal a thorough understanding of flow and everyday use.
在嵌入式和独立式家具的细节和功能上,垂直性被作为一个整体的审美主题。门厅里的长椅和厨房里的岛,以及主浴室里的水槽和浴缸等卫浴元素都是定制的作品,带有相同的视觉表达,都是由当地生产的比利时水磨石建造的。
Verticality has been used as an overall aesthetic theme in the detailing and features of the built-in and freestanding furniture. The bench in the foyer and the kitchen islands along with sanitary elements like sinks and the bathtub in the master bathroom are customised pieces carrying the same visual expression, all built by strips of locally produced Belgian terrazzo.
它们的特征在油漆木制品中重复出现,创造了一种共同的语言,并强调了塔楼的垂直性。地板上的浅棕色石头似乎为公寓的其他部分定下了颜色基调,然而,当打开抽屉和橱柜时,蓝色和绿色的色调再次跳出来,给人带来更多的惊喜。WKA顶层公寓的设计、构思和建造都花了不少时间,该项目展示了Bruno Spaas Architectuur与一小批建筑商和当地工匠密切合作所能达到和实现的细致程度。
Their features are repeated in the painted woodwork, creating a common language, and underlining the verticality of the tower. The light brown stone on the floor seems to set the colour tone for the rest of the apartment, yet only to give room for even more wonder when opening drawers and cupboards where shades of blues and greens pop out and surprise once again.‘WKA Penthouse’ has taken time to design, conceive and build, and the project demonstrates the level of meticulousness and detail that Bruno Spaas Architectuur can achieve and realise in close collaboration with a small group of constructors and local craftsmen.
