Mexican architect Inca Hernández has renovated and refurbished a crumbling historic building to create apartments in Mexico City.

Located in Tacuba neighbourhood, the Mar Mediterraneo 34 (MM34) building was originally completed in 1910 and had since fallen into disrepair.

墨西哥建築師印加·埃爾南德斯(IncaHernández)已翻修並翻新了一座破舊的歷史建築,以在墨西哥城建造公寓。

Mar Mediterraneo 34(MM34)大樓位於Tacuba街區,最初於1910年完工,此後陷入失修。

“At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, Tacuba became one of the wealthiest areas of the city with large country houses, which over time and different political changes were abandoned and many were collapsed,” said Hernández.

“However, among these vestiges the house of Mar Mediterraneo 34 remained.”

埃爾南德斯說:“在19世紀末和20世紀初,塔庫巴(Tacuba)成為該市最富裕的地區之一,擁有大量鄉間別墅,隨著時間的流逝,各種政治變革都被拋棄了,許多倒塌了。”

“但是,在這些遺跡中,Mar Mediterraneo 34的房屋仍然保留。”

Hernández’s aim for the project was to reference the history of the building, which he said was valued by National Institute of Fine Arts and the National Institute of Anthropology and History, while also creating contemporary apartments.

His response was to do that quite literally by splitting MM34 into two styles: one has refurbished elements of the old structure and the other half features the original clay-brick walls covered in bright white plaster.

埃爾南德斯(Hernández)的項目目的是參考該建築的歷史,他說該建築的歷史受到了國立美術學院和國立人類學與歷史學院的重視,同時還創造了當代公寓。

他的回應是從字面上將MM34分為兩種樣式:一種是對舊結構進行了翻新,另一種則採用了原來的粘土磚砌牆,上面覆蓋著明亮的白色石膏。

“The project started with the idea of ​​giving a new life to a house designed in two volumes, where the first incorporates the main facade while the second has a view to the main patio, although both were in advanced deterioration and the second volume was in ruins,” he explained.

Salvaged and restored existing elements of the historical building include the balconies and lintels, iron railings, large windows and glass roof tiles. Where new materials were used, the architect chose those made by local artisans to pay homage to its eclectic French style.

“該項目始於給兩卷設計的房屋賦予新生命的想法,其中第一卷結合了主立面,而第二卷則看向了主露台,儘管兩者都在惡化中,第二卷 一片廢墟。”他解釋道。

打撈和修復的歷史建築的現有元素包括陽台和門,鐵欄杆,大窗戶和玻璃屋頂瓦片。 在使用新材料的地方,建築師選擇了當地工匠製作的材料,以向其折衷的法國風格致敬。

“The roof dome was rebuilt with a ceramic tile that reinterprets the original glass plates, the same happens with the cornice bordered with Mexican glazed ceramic pieces,” Hernández explained.

“The windows of the mansards still preserve some of the original pieces; the missing ones were replaced with Talavera mosaic.”

埃爾南德斯解釋說:“屋頂穹頂是用瓷磚重建的,瓷磚重新詮釋了原始的玻璃板,簷口與墨西哥釉面陶瓷件也是如此。”

“芒s的窗戶仍然保留著一些原始的碎片;丟失的碎片被塔拉韋拉馬賽克代替。”

Hernández’s restoration work also continued through the interiors of the property, where glass and aluminum window and door frames were added, and floor were reinforced with metal beams and covered in plaster.

Measuring 620 square metres, MM34 has seven apartments across its three floors. They include lofts, studios family apartments and penthouses.

埃爾南德斯(Hernández)的修復工作也貫穿了酒店的內部,增加了玻璃和鋁製的窗戶和門框,並用金屬梁加固了地板,並用石膏覆蓋。

MM34佔地620平方米,在其三層樓中擁有七間公寓。 其中包括閣樓,一室公寓,家庭公寓和頂層公寓。

The homes are flooded with daylight from large windows that also offer views to a rear courtyard. White walls continue inside, where the floors are a mixture of wood and decorative tile.

A number are double-height and have mezzanines floors where the bedrooms are located.

Other apartment buildings in Mexico City include a concrete complex designed by American architecture firm Studio Rick Joy and a building by Arqmov Workshop sheathed in a patchwork of vibrant laminate panels.

大窗戶的日光充斥著房屋,這些窗戶還享有後院的景緻。 白色的牆壁在內部延續,地板是木質和裝飾性瓷磚的混合物。

一些是雙高的,在臥室所在的地方舖有中層地板。

墨西哥城的其他公寓建築包括由美國建築公司Studio Rick Joy設計的混凝土建築群和由Arqmov Workshop建造的建築,這些建築被包裹在充滿活力的層壓板中。
