J. Mayer H | 德國Casa Morgana私人住宅-設計風向

附近是一些19世紀的住宅，這棟抽象的當代建築名為Casa Morgana，在德國北部樹木環繞的環境中顯得格外突出。J. Mayer H.認為該建築是一個潛在的未來建築的研究，似乎已經脫離了背景，很像一個“住宅雕塑”。周圍的自然環境模擬了亞熱帶綠洲，將家從地理環境中分離出來，創造出一種大氣置換的感覺。

Neighboured by 19th-century homes, the abstract contemporary structure that is Casa Morgana stands out amongst its woody surrounds in Northern Germany. J. Mayer H. regard the building as a study for potential future architecture that seems to have fallen out of context, much like a ‘residential sculpture’. The surrounding nature simulates a subtropical oasis, taking the home out of its geographical context and creating a sense of atmospheric displacement.

現有的建築和附屬建築可以追溯到1972年和1991年，都被縮減成混凝土外殼，然後進行有針對性的改造。建築師們並沒有進行裝飾性的改造，而是試圖保留一個地方，這個地方從一開始就呈現並延續了原始的粗野主義美學。幾個不同大小的混凝土立方體組成了這座三層建築，錯落有別，通過中央樓梯相連。

Dating back to 1972 and 1991 respectively, the existing building and its annexes were reduced to their concrete shells and then reconfigured with targeted alterations. Rather than a cosmetic makeover, the architects sought to preserve a location that distils and continues the archaic and brutalist aesthetic from its time of origin. Several concrete cubes of various sizes comprise the three-story building, placed at staggered levels on top of one another and connected via a central stairway.

裸露的混凝土添加物和部分移除的天花板和牆壁進一步打磨了建築的形式，交錯的樓層和不同的房間高度創造了垂直的聯係和不同的房間序列。室內的家具被減少到最少，擴大了住宅的空間。某些元素複製了立方體的主題，比如鏡麵立方廚房島。

Exposed concrete additions and the partial removal of ceilings and walls hone in further on the form of the building, with the staggered floors and varying room heights creating vertical links and a different sequence of rooms. Furniture within the interior is reduced to the minimum, enhancing the expanse of the residence. Certain elements replicate the cube motif, such as the mirrored cube kitchen island.

不同房間之間的隔牆起著重要的裝飾作用。鏡麵牆反射出暴露的混凝土和水磨石表麵，而裝置模擬穿過混凝土牆的縫隙，仿佛暴露了材料的內部結構。預先存在的混凝土牆有助於創建一個減少和投影的混合。

Partitions between different rooms are functional while acting as crucial elements of décor. Mirrored walls reflect exposed concrete and terrazzo surfaces, and installations emulate gaps through the concrete walls, as if exposing the inner structure of the material. The pre-existing concrete walls assist in creating a hybrid of reduction and projection.

從街上看，Casa Morgana似乎是封閉和私密的。隻有從花園開始，住宅才從單調的灰色轉變為鬱鬱蔥蔥的綠色。巨大的玻璃旋轉門將整個生活區打開，通向一個由竹子、大樹、棕櫚樹和蘑菇組成的私人天堂，藝術家Tita Giese設計了這個“天堂”。

From the street, Casa Morgana appears closed and private. Only from the garden is the home transformed from its monochromatic grey palette toward lush greenery. Large glass pivoting doors open the entire living area onto a private haven of bamboo, tall trees, palms and mushrooms, designed by the artist Tita Giese.
