Surman Weston has built a house in Surbiton, south-west London, with a facade that riffs off the mock-Tudor facades of the surrounding suburban homes.

Named Ditton Hill House, the home was designed to combine the client’s desire for a contemporary house that had an industrial aesthetic with an acknowledgement of its location in a London suburb.

“The client wanted an overtly industrial house, the driving design concept for us was to deliver a house that met that brief but was still contextual in its suburban setting,” explained Surman Weston co-founder Tom Surman.

“The surrounding area was awash with mock-Tudor houses, we set about subverting this typical suburban language by pairing it with modern industrial materials,” he told Dezeen.

蘇曼·韋斯頓(Surman Weston)在倫敦西南部的瑟比頓(Surbiton)建造了一所房屋,其立面可以輕拂周圍郊區房屋的模擬都鐸式立面。

該房屋名為Ditton Hill House,旨在結合客戶對具有現代工業美感的現代房屋的渴望以及對它在倫敦郊區的位置的認可。

Surman Weston聯合創始人湯姆·蘇爾曼(Tom Surman)解釋說:“客戶想要一間公開的工業用房,我們的駕駛設計理念是交付滿足這一要求的房屋,但在郊區仍與環境相關。”

他對Dezeen表示:“周邊地區充滿了都鐸式的模擬房屋,我們著手通過將其與現代工業材料結合來顛覆這種典型的郊區語言。”

Built with an external steel frame, the most visible nod towards the neighbouring mock-Tudor homes are the front and rear facades of the A-frame house.

On these elevations, Surman Weston infilled the structural framing, which is arranged in a similar pattern to that found on mock-Tudor facades, with brick panels.

建有外部鋼架,對鄰近的Tudor模仿住宅最明顯的點頭是A架房屋的正面和背面。

在這些高地上,Surman Weston用磚砌面板填充了結構框架,該結構框架的排列方式類似於在模擬Tudor外牆中發現的樣式。

“The primary integration of the local vernacular results from the decision to use a steel exoskeleton infilled with masonry,” said Surman.

“The exoskeletal steel frame acts structurally, externally this enabled us to integrate the local vernacular in a contemporary fashion and internally allowed us to achieve expansive column-free spaces,” he continued.

“Very few buildings are built the way Ditton Hill House is – the exoskeletal frame and masonry infill presented lots of technical challenges – and very few homes end up looking like Ditton Hill House.”

瑟曼說:“當地話語的主要整合是決定使用填充有磚石的鋼製外骨骼的結果。”

他繼續說:“外骨骼鋼架在結構上發揮了作用,在外部使我們能夠以現代方式整合本地白話,並且在內部使我們能夠獲得廣闊的無柱空間。”

“幾乎沒有像Ditton Hill House那樣建造的建築物–骨骼骨架和磚石填充物帶來了許多技術挑戰–幾乎沒有房子看起來像Ditton Hill House。”

On the road-facing facade of the building, the impact is muted as both the steel and brick elements are painted white.

However, on the garden-facing facade, the effected is highlighted through the use of perforated bricks that enclose the first-floor balcony.

在建築物的路面立面上,由於鋼鐵和磚塊元素都塗成白色,因此影響被減弱了。

但是,在面向花園的立面上,通過使用圍繞第一層陽台的多孔磚突出效果。

Within the home the steel frame allowed the studio to create large open spaces including a living and dining area that overlooks the garden through full-height windows.

Surman Weston exposed the steel floor decks within the ground floor spaces and used steel-framed glazing as further nods to Tudor houses.

在住宅中,鋼製框架使工作室可以創建大型開放空間,包括起居和用餐區,可通過全高窗戶俯瞰花園。

蘇曼·韋斯頓(Surman Weston)暴露了地下空間中的鋼地板,並使用鋼結構玻璃窗進一步向都鐸王朝的房屋致意。

“Crittall-style glazing offers a contemporary twist on the leaded windows synonymous with the mock-Tudor genre,” said Surman.

“The exposed decks add texture to the interior palette and were seen as a modern interpretation of exposed Tudor timber beams.”

Surman說:“ Crittall風格的玻璃在含鉛玻璃窗上提供了現代感,這是模擬Tudor風格的代名詞。”

“裸露的甲板為室內調色板增添了質感,被視為對都鐸式裸木橫樑的現代詮釋。”

The home was built around a triple-height entrance hall that was created to express the industrial aesthetic running through the building.

Attached to this entrance space is a sitting room that leads through a study to the dining area and a small toilet.

該房屋建在三層高的入口大廳周圍,該入口大廳旨在表達貫穿建築物的工業美學。

與該入口空間相連的是一間客廳,該客廳通向書房,通往用餐區和一個小廁所。

“The triple-height entrance hall is the primary circulation space, kinked at 45 degrees in plan, it is the only area that breaks from the regular grid around which all other spaces are arranged,” explained Surman.

“We wanted the entrance space to be overtly industrial so upon entry, one would instantly understand that the house is something different,” he continued.

“By combining the verticality you might expect from a warehouse with similarly industrial materials – steel, concrete, and exposed block-work – the hallway is clearly the most industrial space in the house and works as a bit of a counterpoint to the warmer habitable rooms.”

Surman解釋說:“三層高的入口大廳是主要的流通空間,在平面上彎折成45度角,這是唯一一個與規則網格斷開的區域,所有其他空間均圍繞該規則網格佈置。”

他繼續說:“我們希望入口空間是公開的工業設備,因此在進入時,人們會立即意識到房子是不同的。”

“通過將倉庫中的垂直度與類似的工業材料(鋼,混凝土和裸露的砌塊)結合起來,走廊顯然是房屋中最工業的空間,並且與溫暖宜居的房間有點對立 。”

A concrete stair placed at 45 degrees within the entrance hall leads up to the first floor, which contains two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two dressing rooms.

The master bedroom has access to a large balcony that overlooks the rear garden.

入口大廳內以45度角放置的混凝土樓梯通向一樓,其中包括兩間臥室,兩個浴室和兩個更衣室。

主臥室可通往俯瞰後花園的大陽台。

Although the house may not be instantly recognisable as a take on mock-Tudor architecture, Surman Weston hopes that the details make the link clear.

“We didn’t set out to mock mock-Tudor, more to reference it. Although there are plenty of ugly mock-Tudor houses nearby, there are also some good examples,” he said.

“Through various design iterations, the extent of mocking fluctuated. In the end, from afar, one would perhaps not realise the house references mock-Tudor at all but on closer inspection, a few telling details and references are revealed.”

儘管這座房子可能無法立即被視為模仿Tudor的建築,但Surman Weston希望細節能夠使鏈接清楚。

他說:“我們沒有開始模仿托特的模仿,而是提供更多參考。儘管附近有很多醜陋的都鐸式房屋,但也有一些很好的例子。”

“通過各種設計迭代,模擬的程度有所波動。最後,從遠處看,人們可能根本不會意識到房屋參考了模擬-Tudor,但經過仔細檢查,發現了一些明顯的細節和參考。”

“The more time that’s passed since the house completed, the more we’ve realised just how different the house is. In a way that is exactly what the house is; it’s different and unusual, perhaps a little odd,” Surman continued.

“The combination of the client’s love for all things industrial, the typical suburban setting and the fusion and subversion of elements of both result in a strange and, hopefully, interesting house.”

Surman Weston is a London-based architecture studio established in 2014 by Tom Surman and Percy Weston. The studio previously built a cork-covered studio for sewing and music and used stained glass to divide up spaces in a London co-working space inside a former church.

Surman繼續說道:“自房屋建成以來經過的時間越多,我們就越意識到房屋的不同之處。從某種意義上說,這正是房屋的本質;它與眾不同且與眾不同,也許有些奇怪。”

“客戶對工業所有事物的熱愛,典型的郊區環境以及元素的融合和顛覆相結合,造就了一座奇怪而又充滿希望的房子。”

Surman Weston是由Tom Surman和Percy Weston於2014年成立的倫敦建築工作室。 該工作室以前建立了一個佈滿軟木的工作室,用於縫紉和音樂,並使用彩色玻璃在前教堂內的倫敦合作空間中劃分空間。
