Garnier Residence

Inspired by the “mid-century modern” style, the Garnier residence is an atypical renovation where the beauty of the materials is at the service ofsingular spaces that redraw the boundaries between public and private.
 
Designed for a couple and their young child, the former triplex gives pride of place to reception areas. The large living room on the top floor receives maximum light, while the bedrooms, nestled on the first floor, live in the shadow of the double garage in the backyard. The renovation of the threelevels also includes the basement which is partly occupied by an independent studio dedicated to the visiting family, or for rent. The kitchen istraced by an elegantly curved countertop, topped by a suspended structure that follows a U shape. Everything related to the domestic is hidden in the built-in furniture. At night, the curtains are drawn and the space takes on the appearance of a speakeasy. By day, this festive space is bathed in naturallight thanks to the skylight above the kitchen and the large bay windows overlooking the alley.
In the central module dressed in walnut is the staircase and a small powder room hidden behind a door carved in the same wood. Here, the smokedglass, copper faucets, Italian pedestal washbasin and terracotta ceramics reminiscent of upholstered leather create a discreet chic. A second skylightoverhangs the stairwell and creates a vertical light axis in the residence. On one of the sides, a textured glass opening lets the light through, butobscures the view, contributing to the slightly intriguing character of the place. When the sun’s rays pierce the material, rays of light are projected ontothe floor. The colorful Murano terrazzo slab that adorns all the floors brings a joyful and playful character to the space. The different shades of stonethat make it up con- tributed to the construction of the color palette and the arrangement of the different materials to magnify each element, from the copper baseboards to the walnut walls. In the master bedroom bathroom, the verde Saint-Denis marble countertop, emerald green sinks and warmnatural felt walls also harmonize with the terrazzo.
 
Throughout this creation, materiality inspired the project. As much through the color of the materials as their format. Thus, the wall panels create a grid that ac- companies the wall bookcase and gives rhythm to the modules integrated into the space. As in all the firm’s creations, particular attention was paid to the alignments. With the Garnier residence, Dupont and Blouin create chic and masterful interiors inviting to both festivities andcomfort, in a hushed and luxurious universe.

加尼爾宅

汲取自二十世紀中期的現代風格,加尼爾住宅為非典型住宅翻新案,善用單一材料之美至空間裡,重新劃分公共與私人空間的界線。

本案使用者為一對夫妻與家中幼童,前身為三層樓的住宅,以接待區為重心。位於頂樓的大型客廳有最佳採光,一樓的臥室則有後院雙車庫的陰影遮蔽。這項三層樓的翻新案還包括地下室,這裡有部分是獨立的工作室空間,可供來訪家庭使用,亦可租賃。廚房為優雅的弧線流理台,上方有U型的懸吊式結構,所有家用品都隱藏在嵌入式家具中。到了夜晚,窗簾拉上之後,整體空間看上去宛如祕密酒吧。到了白天,從廚房天窗及走道上方的大型凸窗有自然光流瀉而下,營造出愉快的空間。

 

以核桃木包覆的中央模組是樓梯間,以及一間小化妝室。這間小化妝室隱藏在同樣以核桃木打造的門後方,有煙燻玻璃、銅製水龍頭、義大利獨立式面盆,其赤陶牆面看似裝飾性皮革,散發著典雅之感。樓梯間上方有第二扇天窗,為住宅造出垂直光軸線。在其中一邊有波浪紋玻璃開口讓光照進來,但出去的景觀會模糊些,為此空間營造出略引人好奇的元素。而陽光穿透此材料時,光線就能投射到地板上。

地面是由繽紛的Murano磨石子地板裝飾,為空間帶來活潑有趣的特色。石頭的不同色調,恰與建築中不同材料的色調與排列搭配,凸顯出每一種元素,例如銅製踢腳板、核桃木牆面等等。主臥室的浴室採用聖丹尼斯綠大理石檯面、翡翠綠色面盆與觸感溫暖自然的牆面,與磨石子地板相呼應。打造本宅的過程是由材料性啟發,而和材料顏色一樣重要的,就是形式。因此牆板構成格網,延伸到牆面的書櫃,為融入空間的模組賦予節奏。事務所的所有作品都格外注意排列,這一次也不例外。在加尼爾住宅中,建築師杜邦與布魯因(Dupont and Blouin)打造出時髦又精湛的室內,兼具歡樂與舒適,成為低調奢華的空間。
