加拿大魁北克Tandem公寓

Tandem Condos Sur Cour / Fugère architecture

来自建筑事务所的描述：Tandem公寓共5层，它坐落于加拿大魁北克地区附近的Faubourg St-Jean。这块场地多年来饱受争议，人们常常认为其中的一片停车场影响了整片场地的美观，但是现在却由于新建筑而焕发新活力。

Text description provided by the architects. The Tandem is a 5-story residential building located in the very animated Faubourg St-Jean nearby the Old-Quebec area. The site has been the subject of many debates over the years. A car park, considered as a scratch in the urban fabric of the area, was now given new spirit with the new building.

建筑位于Saint-Jean街，其地面层用于零售等社区便利设施，形成社区精神。建筑的二层是11座联排住宅，业主能够俯瞰Richelieu街道。上部楼层的公寓环绕中庭分布，每个单元都能够享受到建筑两端的开口。而外部道路网络系统也让每座公寓拥有单独的入口。

On Saint-Jean Street, the ground floor offers local shops and facilities to serve the community and to provide the necessary actions to create a great neighborhood spirit. The Tandem offers eleven 2-story townhouses overlooking the Richelieu Street. Appartements on the upper levels enjoy the indoor courtyard in the center of the project that allows every unit to benefit from a flow-through effect, created by the openings at both extremities of each apartment. A system of exterior gateways also allows each apartment to have its own private entrance.

在进行Tandem项目开发的同期，建筑师构思了许多元素，从而满足可持续发展和场地密度等需求。例如，建筑的朝向、院落的植物、门窗的选择与定位，另外还有大面积白色屋顶，这些元素都能够有效减少热岛效应和建筑的碳足迹。建筑还包含有垂直花园，形成私密空间，同时这也能够帮助建筑散热。东部立面运用了绿植墙体，使其与内部院落连接起来。

While developing the Tandem project, architects included a lot of elements to meet the current requirements of sustainable development and densification. For example, the orientation of the building, the vegetation on the courtyard, the choice and the positioning of the doors and windows, as well as the white roof with large surfaces covered with vegetation, will reduce the heat island effect and the ecological footprint of the project. The Tandem also proposes a vertical garden as a privacy screen, which contributes to the natural cooling of the whole building. The East façade integrates a vegetal wall to ensure continuity with the courtyard.

庭院的几何形态有利于光线的穿越，这最大程度地利用自然采光。屋面上的单元体量也来源于庭院，从而减少光线的投影。另外，内院的布局也通过设计的方式减少对人工照明和空调设备的依赖。整座住宅都拥有良好的自然通风和自然采光。

The yard’s geometry has been modulated according to the sun's path to maximize natural lighting. The units volumetry on the roof is set back from the courtyard to minimize sunlight shadows. Also, the layout of the inner courtyard reduces the energy consumption of artificial lighting and mechanical cooling through the development of housing which provides their occupants living areas well ventilated and flooded with natural light.

新建筑的材料应用呼应了周边建筑特点。砖石、金属、玻璃、木材相互组合，但却通过现代形式表达出来。砖石在周边建筑的应用中较为广泛，建筑的上部则应用了诸如加拿大金属面板等覆层，这似乎是在呼应周边的屋面体系。在阳台的内部使用的是类似木材的面板，这参考了其他的相邻住宅。

The material expression of the new building is a response to the distinctive elements of the neighborhood. The brick, the metal, the glass conjugated with the wood are thus expressed through the project by a current architectural vocabulary. The brick is used in the foundation of the building and in the treatment of townhouses. The upper part of the building is designed lightly with metal coatings such as Canadian sheet metal, a nod to the roofs of the neighborhood. A wood-like material is used on the inner faces of the balconies, a reference to the oriels of the neighboring houses.
