卡希納
Cascina是座位於義大利皮埃蒙特大區結合住家與工作室的設計案，建築物的前身為200年歷史的農莊，此次整修展現出Jonathan Tuckey Designs設計理念，除一方面保留了農莊原有的結構，另一方面採用了永續工法的現代結構。經過一番修整後，從建築物內往外看可以看到葡萄園壯麗的景色；從外觀看的話，整體畫面呈現出新穎的居家特色與精心修復過，同時間也是座擁有懷舊風貌的農莊建物。
永續策略於整體計畫中為首要考量，此番修整重覆使用原有的建築材料，如石牆、屋頂等的瓦片與原本未經加工的木作梁柱。儘管許多部分已被判定無法挽救，但團隊認為透過木材與新元件的加工，即可在既有的穀倉骨架上搭出一個新的屋頂，創造出視覺層次，讓它成為整體設計的重點。
Sustainable strategies were at the forefront of ambition, with the scheme reusing much of the original fabric including stone walls, roof tiling and the gnarled, unsawn timber roof skeleton. Although many elements were seen to be ‘beyond redemption’, a view was taken on the original barn roof structure, that with thoughtful timber engineering and layering new components, a new roof could be formed from the skeleton of the former. A visual layering that drawing became a key visual driver and encapsulation of the philosophy behind the project overall.
此設計案新舊交融的根源來自於雕塑與構圖的處理方式。屋頂原有的結構好比扭曲的樹枝，與富有現代感的直板木材形成對比。當結構、色調和材質形成了視覺的交互拚接後，彷彿蘇繡圖案的畫面就這樣呈現在眼前，將建築物在不同時間、空間的轉變寫實地交織在一起。舊與新的交互，成功地為提供了豐富的視覺體驗。
The description of old and new in this project comes from a compositional or sculptural approach. The older structure of the roof, more twisted, branch like members were counterpointed to regularised straight, modern lumber. The interchange between structure, tone and texture creates a patchwork, an interesting tapestry which betrays the different temporal incarnations of the building - in effect a palimpsest. The mending, in one sense, the sewing of old and new, delivers a richness and extended narrative fundamental to successful adaptation.
此外，改善建築物的隔熱與散熱功能是很必要的，因此除了對建物進行內部絕緣的加強外，外牆部分則使用顆粒狀塗料保護，再以不規則但密集的手法鋪上磚塊。整間建物的可再生能源，則是透過地緣熱踏源熱泵和屋頂太陽能板提供。手工製作的石膏，其溫潤的質地與石灰石天然石板、木材和磚塊疊在一起，是房屋堅固來源的組合。從石灰和碎石組成的Cocciopesto地板塗料，和石灰、沙粒混合物中夾雜著工地的陶土瓦片碎屑，巧妙地讓的地板形成了搶眼的拋光面。而百葉窗和木製物件使用了當地的栗木，這種低碳材料將建物的所有物件融入周圍景觀中。
Renewable energy is supplied through a ground source heat pump and solar panels on the pitched roof. Bringing the building back to its former agrarian appearance and improving its thermal envelope was imperative, from here the choice of insulating the building to the inside and apply a granular render to external walls, revealing faces of brick intermittently throughout their surface. The warm texture of the hand-crafted plaster continues this tactile language internally, and alongside Luserna stone, timber, and brick, articulates a robust material palette throughout the house. Cocciopesto flooring inventively binds old and new, with a mix of lime and sand interspersed with crushed fragments of terracotta tiles from the site, resulting in a polished finish aware of its context. Locally sourced chestnut was implemented for external shutters and joinery; a beautiful low-carbon material which binds all the elements of the building inextricably into its landscape.
