Originally, an austere building from the 1930s erected to accommodate a dormitory for high school students. Its new owners have known it since their childhood, it has always been part of the landscape in the neighbourhood. Although they acquired the large building a few years ago to make it their main residence, they waited several more years before entrusting the renovation to the Paradowski Studio agency. “When we visited it for the first time in 2019, it was not in its best condition,” confide designer Zuza Paradowski and architect Piotr Paradowski. There wasn’t much left to draw inspiration from other than the building itself. We therefore focused our research on the characteristics of Polish architecture of the 1930s.” Since it was a question of designing a residential villa with an area of 450 square meters spread over three floors, the couple decided to modify the layout of the building. To reduce its surface area, they sacrificed the central part of its rear facade, thus creating a U-shaped plan which frees up space for a large terrace. Likewise, the staircase is moved from its original side position towards the center of the house. It becomes the soul and the heart, visible from each room.

它原本是一座朴素的建筑,建于 20 世纪 30 年代,是一所高中生宿舍。它的新主人从小就认识它,它一直是附近景观的一部分。虽然他们几年前就买下了这栋大房子,并将其作为自己的主要居所,但他们还是等了几年才委托 Paradowski Studio 公司进行翻新。设计师祖扎-帕拉多夫斯基(Zuza Paradowski)和建筑师皮奥特-帕拉多夫斯基(Piotr Paradowski)坦言:"当我们在 2019 年第一次参观它时,它的状况并不理想。除了建筑本身,没有什么可以汲取灵感了。因此,我们将研究重点放在了 20 世纪 30 年代波兰建筑的特点上"。由于要设计一座占地 450 平方米、共三层的住宅别墅,这对夫妇决定改变建筑的布局。为了缩小面积,他们牺牲了后立面的中央部分,从而创造出一个 U 型平面,为一个大露台腾出了空间。同样,楼梯也从原来的侧面移到了房屋的中心位置。楼梯成了房屋的灵魂和心脏,从每个房间都能看到。

If technically, the staircase and its guardrail constitute the great challenge of this renovation.

如果从技术上讲,楼梯及其护栏是这次翻新的最大挑战。

“It was a matter of finding the right craftsmen to carry it out as we had imagined it” – the scope of the work will be the other big challenge. “We decided not to rush the design and construction stages. As this was a large-scale job, covering the exterior as well as the interior, it took more than four years to complete it down to the smallest detail. From the fence to the front door, from the facade to the handrail, everything was made to measure.

“我们需要找到合适的工匠来按照我们的想象进行施工"--施工范围将是另一大挑战。“我们决定在设计和施工阶段不要操之过急。由于这是一项大规模的工程,不仅涉及外部,还包括内部,因此我们花了四年多的时间才将其完成,直至最微小的细节。从栅栏到前门,从外墙到扶手,一切都是量身定做的。

Inside, we start from scratch, the only elements preserved are the original windows, restored in an interesting verdigris tone. We produce a large number of models and samples for as many wall finishes or pieces of integrated furniture and, again, in order to obtain all the desired effects, with a large number of tests. “We wanted to create the atmosphere as close as possible to the time the building was constructed.

在内部,我们从零开始,唯一保留下来的是原窗户,并以有趣的青翠色调进行了修复。我们制作了大量的模型和样品,用于墙面装饰或集成家具,同样,为了获得所有想要的效果,我们还进行了大量的测试。“我们希望营造出尽可能接近建筑建造时的氛围。

For this, it was decided to manufacture as much as possible locally, in an artisanal manner and from natural materials. Concerning the color of the walls, Paradowski Studio favors one or two simple tones to add the touches of brightness brought by the architectural themselves – arches, staircase – as well as by the textures and materials. A clean base suitable for welcoming

为此,我们决定尽可能在当地以手工方式使用天然材料进行生产。关于墙壁的颜色,Paradowski 工作室倾向于采用一到两种简单的色调,以增加建筑本身--拱门、楼梯--以及纹理和材料所带来的亮点。简洁的基调适合

more elaborate additions through numerous veneers, mostly in reference to the 1930s, or others, more surprising, in ziricote, this dark and intense precious wood. The multiple custom-made carpentry elements are brushed then lacquered by hand, from the island and low storage units in the kitchen to the vanity units in the bathrooms, in reference to ancient carpentry techniques inspired by local craftsmanship or design in progress in the 1930s in Poland. From the vast entrance hall to the staircase and arches, everything comes together in a very natural way, as if everything had always been there. Everything fits together in this spacious but warm and welcoming space. A space far from being intimidating, full of elegance, but also very relaxed and serene.

此外,还采用了许多木皮,主要是参照 20 世纪 30 年代的木皮,或采用黝黑而浓烈的珍贵木材--榉木,这更令人吃惊。从厨房中的岛和矮储物柜到浴室中的梳妆台,多种定制的木工元素都经过拉丝处理,然后再手工上漆,其灵感来源于波兰当地的古老木工技术或 20 世纪 30 年代的设计。从宽敞的入口大厅到楼梯和拱门,所有的一切都浑然天成,仿佛一切都已存在。在这个宽敞而又温馨的空间里,一切都相得益彰。这个空间远非令人生畏,充满优雅,但也非常轻松宁静。
