橡樹公園住宅是一個緊湊的插建的建筑項(xiàng)目,位于薩克拉門托橡樹公園區(qū)一個長期空置地段上,這是一個人口多樣化的社區(qū),幾十年來一直遭受經(jīng)濟(jì)停滯和城市投資減少的影響。近年來,年輕的專業(yè)人士、藝術(shù)家和學(xué)生開始重新發(fā)現(xiàn)橡樹公園是靠近薩克拉門托市中心的一個適宜他們居住的社區(qū),新的藝術(shù)畫廊,獨(dú)立咖啡店和小型企業(yè)擠滿了整個地區(qū)廢棄的店面。
自1969 年臭名昭著的橡樹公園暴亂以來,橡樹公園住宅是該社區(qū)第一批新的住宅開發(fā)項(xiàng)目之一,那次暴亂給城市的社會和自然景觀留下了永久的傷痕;因此,該項(xiàng)目不僅僅是對現(xiàn)有住房存量的補(bǔ)充:還是城市復(fù)興的先兆,它的建筑欣然接受了推動這個充滿活力和文化多樣性的社區(qū)不斷復(fù)興的創(chuàng)造力和活力。
該項(xiàng)目是由六個小住宅組成的密集集群。這些房屋構(gòu)造簡單,兩層的體量,其外觀清爽,但刻意的戲謔,以呼應(yīng)橡樹公園滲透的進(jìn)步和藝術(shù)精神,精心設(shè)計(jì)的比例與該地區(qū)現(xiàn)有建筑體量和規(guī)模相呼應(yīng)。其中三個單元沿著第二大道組合在一起,修復(fù)支離破碎的街道邊緣,修補(bǔ)不規(guī)則的街區(qū)組構(gòu)。另外三個住宅從公共巷道進(jìn)入,延續(xù)薩克拉門托獨(dú)特的住宅小巷類型,是活躍的鄰里小徑。每棟建筑的預(yù)算非常有限,每棟建筑的居住面積為1,503 平方英尺,由兩個相互連接的部分組成,一個淺灰色的地面基礎(chǔ)和一個較暗的、略微懸臂的上方空間。廚房、客廳和餐廳被整合為一個主要樓層的開放空間,樓梯通往二樓的三個臥室。
簡單的外部調(diào)色板包括膠結(jié)灰泥和纖維板包層,輔以尺寸合適和精心放置的落地孔。在上層,南立面轉(zhuǎn)換成一個鉸接式的垂直涂漆金屬百葉窗,既充當(dāng)遮陽屏,又充當(dāng)組合裝置。百葉窗的間距構(gòu)成了一種深度紋理,動態(tài)節(jié)奏,其棱鏡色調(diào)和了住宅的中性、柔和的色調(diào),反射著附近的建筑和壁畫生動、千變?nèi)f化的色彩。
Oak Park Housing is a compact urban infill development on a long-vacant lot in Sacramento’s Oak Park district, a demographically diverse neighborhood that, for decades, had suffered from economic stagnation and urban disinvestment.In recent years, young professionals, artists, and students have started to rediscover Oak Park as an affordable community close to downtown Sacramento, with new art galleries, independent coffee shops, and small businesses in tow filling abandoned storefronts throughout the area.
Oak Park Housing is one of the neighborhood’s first new residential developments since the infamous 1969 Oak Park Riots, which left lasting scars on the city’s social and physical landscape; accordingly,the project is more than just a contemporary addition to the existing housing stock: it is a harbinger of urban revitalization, its architecture cheerfully embracing the creative and buoyant energy that has propelled the ongoing renaissance of this vibrant and culturally diverse community.
The project is a dense cluster of six small homes.Carefully proportioned to echo the massing and scale of the area’s existing building stock, the houses are simple, two-story volumes, their appearance crisp but deliberately playful in a nod to the progressive and artsy spirit permeating Oak Park. Three of the units are grouped along 2nd Avenue, where they repair the fragmented street edge and mend the ragged fabric of the block. The other three homes are accessed from the public alley, continuing Sacramento’s unique typology of residential alleys that serve as active neighborhood pathways.
Designed around an ambitiously limited construction budget, each building has a living area of 1,503 square feet and consists of two interlocking components, a light-grey ground-level base and a darker,slightly cantilevered volume above. Kitchen, living and dining are consolidated as one open space on the main level, with stairs leading up to three bedrooms on the second floor.
The simple exterior palette includes cementitious stucco and fiberboard cladding, complemented by the prudently sized and carefully placed floor-to-ceiling apertures. On the upper level, the south fa?ade transforms into an articulated field of lacquered vertical metal louvers that act as both sun screen and compositional device. The metered spacing of the louvers sets up a deeply textured, dynamic cadence, their prismatic colors complementing the homes’ otherwise neutral, muted tones and cheerfully reverberating the vivid, kaleidoscopic hues of the buildings and murals nearby.
