KAVIAR COLLABORATIVE--Art Deco 印度住宅

这套115平方米的公寓位于Malabar山上一座古老的装饰艺术建筑中，这是一个传统和现代结构并存的智能社区，它反映了周围环境的特点。Kaviar Collaborative试图在公寓中推断出建筑特征的曲线，以当代和现代的方式向其装饰艺术遗产致敬。


Located in one of the older Art Deco buildings on Malabar Hill, a smart neighbourhood where heritage and modern structures coexist, the 115-square-metre apartment reflects the characteristics of its surroundings. Kaviar Collaborative tried to extrapolate the curves of the building’s features in the apartment to pay homage to its Art Deco heritage, but in a contemporary and modern manner.





由于精心挑选的材料、一致的色调和重复的细节将空间联系在一起，因此一种总体上的流动感渗透到公寓中。从入口门厅开始，一道深绿色的凹槽墙通向书房，一直到主卧室。带有绿色玻璃碎片的水磨石被用于酒吧台面和用餐区的墙面，而拉丝黄铜的细节出现在整个空间。公寓的地板从入口处和酒吧的绿色印度大理石与黄铜镶嵌到客厅、餐厅、厨房和书房区域的白色大理石。


An overarching sense of fluidity permeates the apartment thanks to meticulously selected materials, a consistent colour palette and repeated details that tie the space together. From the entrance foyer, a dark green fluted wall leads into the den and all the way to the master bedroom. Terrazzo with green glass chips is used both for the bar countertop and as wall cladding in the dining area, while brushed brass details appear throughout. The apartment’s flooring goes from green Indian marble with brass inlays in the entrance and the bar to white marble in the living, dining, kitchen and den areas.





书房是为接待客人而设计的，它是一个多功能的区域，打开时是酒吧、客厅和餐厅空间的延伸，关闭时是一个客房。在酒吧区，带黄铜的水磨石覆盖的酒吧被设计成最重要的部分。在头顶上，悬挂在不同高度的灯丝灯泡有助于营造气氛。


Designed for hosting, the den is a multifunctional area that acts as an extension of the bar, living and dining space when opened, and as a guest room when closed. In the bar area, the terrazzo-clad bar with brass legs was designed as the pièce de resistance and. Overhead, filament bulbs suspended at different heights help set the mood.





另一个重要的考虑因素是公寓的天花板高度较低，设计师通过尽可能扩大窗户，让更多的自然光进入，并使用垂直元素，如凹槽和板条，在视觉上提高空间的高度，巧妙地缓解了这一问题。沙发、椅子和桌子等松散的家具被特别设计成低矮的，以创造更大的空间。


Another important consideration was the apartment’s low ceiling height, which the designers cleverly mitigated by expanding the windows as much as possible to allow more natural light in, and using vertical elements such as flutes and slats to visually raise the height of the space. Loose furniture pieces such as sofas, chairs and tables were specifically designed to be low-slung so as to create the impression of larger volumes.
