加拿大·俱乐部住宅

Clubhouse位于多伦多北部的一个小山丘上，俯瞰加拿大国家高尔夫俱乐部。这个住宅坐落在一个历史悠久的私人社区，大部分原始住宅正在被各种不同的建筑风格所取代。FrankFranco建筑事务所设计的Clubhouse深植于现代主义的根基，是此处少数几个具有明显建筑意图的住宅之一。

Clubhouse is perched atop a hill just north of Toronto, overlooking the National Golf Club of Canada. The residence is situated in an older, private community where most of the original homes are now being replaced with varying architectural styles. Grounded in the roots of modernism, FrankFranco Architects’ Clubhouse is one of the only homes here with visible architectural intent.

作为进入这个庄园社区时首先映入眼帘的房屋，Clubhouse将永远充当门卫和灯塔。与周围的住宅不同，Clubhouse通过特定场地的设计重新诠释豪华为宁静和宜居。这个项目历时三年，由工作室完成的成果——获得了2024年Architizer最佳小型公司奖，异常出色。

As the first house you see when you enter the estate community, it will forever act as gatekeeper and beacon. Unlike the surrounding residences, Clubhouse optimizes its plot with a site-specific design that reinterprets opulence as quiet and livable. The project was three years in the making, and the results by the studio – a 2024 Architizer Best Small Firm winner – are exceptional.

这座住宅是FrankFranco对场地条件的创造性回应的结果。其T形设计图形化地固定了结构的整体体量，并在内部组织了使用功能，同时悬挑的部分看似挑战了重力。

The home is the result of FrankFranco’s creative response to the site’s conditions. Its T-shape design graphically anchors the massing of the structure and internally organizes the uses, while the cantilevered portions appear to defy gravity.

住宅几乎没有面向街道的窗户，隔音效果坚不可摧，因此显得十分隐蔽。北墙的长度为 130 英尺，由阳极氧化铝制成。屏风的强大体量标志着住宅的重要侧翼，从隐私角度来看，它控制了从主干道进入住宅的所有视线。从封闭的露台向外望去，屏风散射阳光和风，让居民可以坐在外面享受框架内的开阔景色，而不会牺牲舒适度。

With few windows facing the street, and impenetrable acoustic insulation, the home is ensconced. Running the length of the northern wall is a 130-foot-long privacy screen made of anodized aluminum. The screen’s strong massing signals a significant wing of the home and, from a privacy standpoint, it controls all sight lines into the home from the main road. Looking out from the enclosed terrace, the screen diffuses sunlight and wind, allowing residents to sit outside to enjoy framed, expansive views without sacrificing comfort.

在前方被加固的同时，后方完全相反。在这里，面向南方的结构包裹玻璃墙允许住宅完全向场地的自然环境开放，视野延伸至地平线的远方。室外通道被优化设计——所有超大内部空间都通向开放式的后方，那里设有小屋、游泳池、露台和后院等设施，供居民享用。

While fortified in the front, the exact opposite is true at the rear. Here, south-facing, structure-wrapping glass walls allow the home to open completely to the nature of the site, with views as far as the horizon will allow. Access to the outdoors is optimized – all over-sized interior spaces lead towards the open concept rear, where such amenities as a cabana, pool, deck, and backyard may be enjoyed.

客户经常在家中举办商务活动并经常招待客人。Clubhouse的私人正面设有宽敞的车库和有盖停车场，提供车辆保护。客人从下层进入房屋，很快就会发现内部的导航设计独特。中央楼梯被设计成艺术装置，是房屋的主要通道。为了到达二楼的起居空间，客人必须上升。楼梯构图中包括两个平台——这些攀升的间歇让客人有机会观察每一步进入私人区域的过程。白橡木扶手高度和钢质护栏顶部之间的交替几何组合，形成了感性的线条。

The clients regularly host business events at home and entertain often. Clubhouse’s private frontage offers vehicle protection with an expansive garage and covered car port. Guests enter the house on the lower level, where it becomes quickly apparent that the internal navigation is unique. Designed as an art installation, the central staircase is the principal circulation of the home. To reach the living spaces on the second floor, guests must ascend. There are two landings incorporated into the stair composition – these pauses in the ascent give guests the opportunity to observe each step towards entering the private quarters. The oscillation between the height of the white oak handrail and the top of the steel guard geometrically combine to create sensual lines.

楼上，所有空间沿着住宅的后方依次排列，具有定制的亮点，如垂直花园墙、宏伟的壁炉和室内雕塑花园。专业级厨房和优雅舒适的餐饮及休息空间满足客人的需求。FrankFranco的室内设计既实用又温馨，并从场地中汲取灵感，融入了自然元素。由于房屋现代化，主要的装饰材料非常简洁。在关键位置，当地采集的Eramosa石灰岩以斑驳的切割形式穿透玻璃，从住宅外部延伸到内墙。磨砂石灰岩从室外延伸至室内，提供了独特的触感体验。

Upstairs, all spaces are aligned sequentially along the back of the home and feature such custom points of interest as a vertical garden wall, a monumental fireplace, and an interior sculpture garden. The professional-grade kitchen and elegant yet comfortable dining and lounge spaces cater to guest needs. FrankFranco’s interior design is functional, warm and, taking its cue from the site, features natural elements. Because the house is modern, there are but a handful of primary finishes that carry throughout. At key points, locally sourced Eramosa limestone, featured in a flurry cut, penetrates the glass and extends from the home's exterior onto the interior walls. The continuity of the honed limestone from outside to inside offers a distinctly tactile experience.

家中使用了埃佛勒斯石英岩板材料来组成各种元素，包括主楼梯的地板和楼梯踏步、长达22英尺的厨房中岛、厨房的后挡板；它还用于包裹客厅的特色壁炉。在家中导航时，磨光和磨砂石英岩之间的转换创造了独特而和谐的调色板。几乎所有的木工和墙板都是使用打磨过的白橡木制成。

Everest quartzite slabs were used to compose various elements in the home, including the floors and stair treads of the main staircase, the 22-foot-long kitchen island, and the backsplash; it was also used to clad the feature fireplace in the living room. The switch between polished and honed quartzite faces creates a distinct yet harmonious palette as one navigates the home. Nearly all millwork and wall panels were produced from wire-brushed white oak.

该工作室的可持续做法和流程包括尽可能在当地指定，并利用节能的新建筑基础设施。仅凭该建筑的东西方向就使其成为被动式太阳能供暖的理想选择。所有窗户，包括后部带有巨大分体式滑动门的环绕式玻璃幕墙，都是高性能且有色的，可限制空调。即使在阴天，自然光也能照亮室内。

The studio’s sustainable practices and processes include specifying locally, whenever possible, and utilizing new building infrastructures that are energy efficient. The building’s east-west orientation alone made it the perfect candidate for passive solar heating. All windows, including the wraparound curtain of glass with a massive split sliding door at the rear, are high-performance and tinted, limiting air-conditioning. Natural light bathes the interior even on overcast days.

使这所房子真正高效的是看不见的部分。房屋的供能来自电力和冷天气热泵。供热的核心是水力系统——所有多余的热量都被收集在水力系统中，并储存在缓冲罐和预制核心板中。在机械上，房屋被分成11个区域，采用带有热回收和共享外部冷凝器的集成空气处理器。南侧享受的阳光被捕捉到水力和强制空气系统中，需要时将这些热量分配到房屋的其他区域。供暖和冷却随使用而调节，客户可以根据需求微观控制各个区域。在夏季，热量从建筑物中移除并送到室外游泳池。

What makes the house truly efficient is invisible. Fueling the home is electricity and cold weather heat pumps. Central to the distribution of heat is the hydronic system – all surplus heat is collected in the hydronic system and stored in buffer tanks, as well as in the precast core slab. Mechanically, the home is segmented into 11 zones and utilizes integrated air handlers with heat recovery and shared exterior condensers. The sunlight that the south side enjoys is captured in both the hydronic and forced air systems, and this heat is distributed to the other zones in the house when required. Heating and cooling scales with use, and the clients can micro control the zones as they are occupied. In the summer months, heat is removed from the building and sent to the outdoor pool.

Clubhouse 的设计初衷是打造一个传承项目。这是一个超越潮流的住宅，为客户和 100 年后在此居住的人提供永久的家。

Clubhouse was designed to be a legacy project. This is a residence that will surpass trends and provide a forever home for the client and those that will live here 100 years from now.
