問君何能爾?心遠地自偏。桃花源記
市外桃源。人聲鼎沸的傳統市場,攤販叫賣聲是耳熟能響的生活配樂,古色古香的紅磚屋緊密排列著,人們不斷地在小巷裡穿梭,尋找陽光充斥與希望相隨的出口。
越過攤販走過暗巷,叫賣聲逐漸消失,建築物後方是記載歲月的古厝,階梯上的青苔,牆上的水漬,生鏽的鐵件,光線從中庭天井灑下,彷彿在城市中找到珍貴的喘息之處。
一樓融入市場的店鋪,從騎樓沿著紅磚牆而上抬頭仰望,通透沒有牆板阻隔可見建築的原貌,樓板退縮形成連貫的挑空,將三層樓高的紅磚牆,承載兒時回憶的畫面盡收眼底。
二樓對外開放的空間,聚集朋友談天說笑,坐在陽台與室內的落差上,提供自然光與風竄進竄出的機會,沿用古厝天井採光手法讓陽光瀰漫在這狹長的空間。
樓梯間屬性的劃分,兩位女士的領域,望著窗外共同料理陶醉其中,兩樓高的出口、三樓高的磚牆,陽台的比例美學賦予視覺的震撼,在狹窄空間敞開眼界,臥房PC板,似內又似外的朦朧質感,兼具隱密及感受彼此存在。
屋頂花園人類與生態的共存,不受基地及街屋的限制來控制我們的生活方式。
Why is this so? Because the state of mind is calm, there is no fear that the outside world will not be calm. The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring
Outside the city. The traditional market is bustling with people, the sound of vendors is a familiar soundtrack to life, and the ancient red-brick houses are packed tightly together, with people constantly weaving in and out of the alleys, looking for an exit where sunshine abounds and hope follows.
Behind the buildings are the old houses that have marked the years, with moss on the steps, water stains on the walls, rusted iron parts, and light pouring down from the atrium patio, as if they have found a precious respite in the city.
The stores on the first floor are integrated into the market, and when you look up along the red brick wall from the veranda, you can see the original appearance of the building without any wall panels blocking the view. The floorboards recede to form a continuous void, so you can see the three-story-high red brick wall that carries your childhood memories.
The second floor is open to the outside, where you can gather friends to talk and laugh, and sit on the difference between the balcony and the indoor space, providing opportunities for natural light and wind to flow in and out of the room, and follow the lighting method of the old house's patio to let the sunshine pervade this long and narrow space.
The staircase is divided into two attributes, two women's domains, looking out the window to cook together and revel in it. The two-story exit, the three-story brick wall, and the aesthetics of the balcony's proportions give a visual shock, opening up the eyes to the narrow space, the bedroom PC board, the hazy texture that seems to be like inside but also like outside, combining both privacy and the feeling of each other's existence.
The roof garden is a coexistence of mankind and ecology and is not subject to the constraints of the base and the street to control our lifestyle.
