Mumbai Artist Retreat is a cabin built from steel and bamboo by Indian studio Architecture Brio in the coastal town of Alibag that’s raised on stilts to withstand rising sea levels.

Built next to the sea in Mumbai Bay, the project is an attempt by Architecture Brio to reconcile the attraction of living by the sea with the risk of climate change.

孟買藝術家度假屋(Mumbai Artist Retreat)是由印度工作室Architecture Brio用鋼和竹建造的小屋,位於沿海小鎮阿里巴格(Alibag),靠高蹺抬起,以承受海平面上升的影響。

該項目建在孟買灣的海邊,是Architecture Brio試圖調和海邊居住的吸引力和氣候變化風險的嘗試。

“Many coastal areas around the world are facing an immense dilemma,” said the studio. “Coastal areas are however some of the most desirable places to live and work.”

The retreat is divided into workshop space, a place for short-term residents to stay, and a long-term accommodation area.

該工作室說:“全球許多沿海地區都面臨著巨大的困境。” “然而,沿海地區是一些最理想的生活和工作場所。”

撤退分為車間空間,短期居民居住的地方和長期居住區。

Facing the metropolitan centre of Mumbai from across the water, Mumbai Artist Retreat is designed to be a rural retreat for artists looking to create in nature but keep the city skyline in sight.

Of all the cities in the world, Mumbai is the second most at-risk from rising sea levels caused by climate change, according to a report published in August 2020. The site of the artist’s retreat is a coconut plantation by the sea and is very low lying and prone to flooding.

孟買藝術家休閒中心面對面隔水相望的孟買大都會中心,旨在為尋求自然創作但又能將城市天際線一覽無餘的藝術家提供鄉村休閒場所。

根據2020年8月發布的一份報告,在全球所有城市中,孟買是由氣候變化導致海平面上升的第二大危險因素。藝術家的休養地是海邊的椰子種植園,非常 低窪,容易氾濫。

Architecture Brio raised the whole structure on stilts so that it can survive encroaching tides. The building is also designed to ultimately be temporary – it can be taken apart and rebuilt on higher ground.

Stone boulders of basalt, excavated during another construction project nearby, form the supports for each steel column. Notches chiselled into the top of the rock anchor each stilt.

建築Brio將整個結構抬高到高蹺上,這樣它就可以抵禦潮汐。 該建築物還設計為最終是臨時的–可以拆開並在較高的地面上重建。

在附近的另一個建築項目中挖掘的玄武岩巨石形成了每個鋼柱的支撐。 每個高蹺都鑿成刻在岩石頂部的缺口。

The lightweight steel frame of stilts, beams and columns was prefabricated off-site to minimise disturbance to the local wildlife, then slotted together with a nut and bolt system.

V-shaped bamboo beams support the two pyramid-shaped roofs, which have blunt tops that hold two skylights.

輕便的高蹺,橫樑和立柱鋼框架是在現場預製的,以最大程度地減少對當地野生動植物的干擾,然後用螺母和螺栓系統將其縫在一起。

V形的竹梁支撐著兩個金字塔形的屋頂,屋頂呈鈍頂,可容納兩個天窗。

“Indian bamboo often suffers from irregular shapes and diameters. In order to avoid the natural irregularity of the bamboo from becoming distractive, the layout of the rafters follows a zig-zag pattern,” explained the studio.

“While the framework is exposed from the inside, on the exterior, a lightweight roofing of cement sheets cover the bamboo framework.”

該工作室解釋說:“印度竹子經常遭受形狀和直徑不規則的影響。為了避免竹子的自然不規則性變得分散注意力,the子的佈局採用鋸齒形。”

“當框架從內部暴露時,在外部,水泥板的輕質屋面覆蓋了竹框架。”

The skylights have integrated solar panels that generate power for the retreat. These panels can be opened like a window, to draw warm air up and out of the building to cool the space below.

Side panels made of slatted timber can be moved between the steel frames to shade certain parts of the workshop while leaving other sides open to generate a breeze and give unobstructed views of the scenery.

天窗集成了太陽能板,可為撤退發電。 這些面板可以像窗戶一樣打開,以吸收熱空氣並將其排出建築物,以冷卻下方的空間。

用板條木材製成的側板可以在鋼製框架之間移動,以遮蔽車間的某些部分,同時讓其他側邊敞開,以產生微風,並保持風景一覽無餘。

Because the groundwater table is dropping, water on the site is salty. Architecture Brio dug a water harvesting pond on the site to replenish the water table, provide fresh water during the summer, and make a habitat for birds and fish.

“The Mumbai Artist Retreat is conceptualised as a community space,” said Architecture Brio.

“It is an art lab of sorts, that aims to bring together art, ecology and society. It will bring people from diverse backgrounds together to engage in various forms of artistic expression in a creative and critical way.”

Architecture Brio was founded by Shefali Balwani and Robert Verrijt in 2006 and is based in Mumbai. Previous projects include a concrete weekend retreat that straddles a stream in Alibag, and a holiday home half embedded in a riverbank in the foothills of the Western Ghats.

由於地下水位下降,該地點的水很咸。 建築Brio在現場挖了一個集水池,以補充地下水位,在夏季提供淡水,並為鳥類和魚類提供棲息地。

“孟買藝術家務虛會被概念化為社區空間,”布瑞歐建築事務所說。

“這是一個旨在將藝術,生態學和社會融合在一起的藝術實驗室。它將把來自不同背景的人們聚集在一起,以創造性和批判性的方式參與各種形式的藝術表達。”

建築Brio由Shefali Balwani和Robert Verrijt於2006年創立,總部設在孟買。 之前的項目包括在阿里巴格(Alibag)的一條小溪上修建一個具體的周末度假屋,以及一個埋在西高止山脈山麓河岸中的度假屋。
