The Clark duplex is conceived as a living gallery that constantly evolves and adapts to a variety of daily needs. This thoughtful design creates a peaceful environment, where each room offers a new perspective on the surrounding urban context. Throughout the residence, views are carefully highlighted and framed by the architecture, both outwards and inwards, inviting residents to engage with each element in a unique and intimate way. This dynamic approach transforms the house into a living, breathing space, encouraging exploration and discovery of traces from the past.
克拉克复式公寓被认为是一个不断发展并适应各种日常需求的生活画廊。这种深思熟虑的设计创造了一个宁静的环境，每个房间都为周围的城市环境提供了新的视角。整个住宅的景观都由建筑精心突出和框定，无论是向外还是向内，邀请居民以独特而亲密的方式参与每个元素。这种动态的方法将房子变成了一个生机勃勃的空间，鼓励人们探索和发现过去的痕迹。
This residence, located in Montreal's Mile-End district, is part of a group of row houses built at the beginning of the 20th century. The renovation project revives the building's original footprint, consolidating its compact, functional geometry. The new plan contributes to the restoration of the building and re-establishes access to the upstairs unit by an interior staircase, thus freeing up the façade. The rusticated grey stone has been cleaned to highlight the balcony, cornice and ornate jamb, which have been reconstructed in keeping with the area's heritage. The rear section and the new storey are distinguished from the original volume by a standing seam zinc cladding. This metallic volume is inspired by the sheds and other outbuildings built in the alleyway. At the back, this inspiration is reflected in the original “L”-shaped volume, whose adjacent exterior space allows for the creation of a terrace and balcony, in continuity with the interior spaces. This succession of outdoor spaces offers continuity between inside and outside on all levels, while providing privacy for both families.
这座住宅位于蒙特利尔的 Mile-End 区，是 20 世纪初建造的一组排屋的一部分。改造项目恢复了建筑原有的占地面积，巩固了其紧凑、功能性的几何形状。新计划有助于修复建筑物，并通过内部楼梯重新建立通往楼上单元的通道，从而释放了立面。粗糙的灰色石头经过清理，突出了阳台、檐口和华丽的门框，这些都根据该地区的遗产进行了重建。后部和新楼层与原始体积的区别在于直立接缝锌覆层。这个金属体积的灵感来自于小巷中建造的棚屋和其他附属建筑。在后面，这种灵感反映在原来的“L”形体积中，其相邻的外部空间允许创建露台和阳台，与内部空间保持连续性。这一系列的室外空间在各个层面上提供了内部和外部之间的连续性，同时为两个家庭提供了隐私。
The residence is laid out around a central volume that divides the space as well as highlights each zone, to reveal a welcoming living environment, where every moment invites to exploration and discovery. Constantly changing views are revealed, linking spaces and levels through built-in furniture, both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
住宅围绕一个中央体量布局，该体量划分了空间并突出了每个区域，展现出温馨的生活环境，每时每刻都充满探索和发现的乐趣。不断变化的景观被展现出来，通过内置家具连接空间和层次，既美观又实用。
Embracing its simplicity, the interior features nuances that evoke the natural world to compose an immersive environment. This approach creates a harmonious atmosphere, where every detail contributes to a sense of tranquility and comfort. This fusion of colors and materials forms a serene backdrop, contrasting with the heterogeneous urban context. Soft hues blend into the space, while natural materials such as stone and wood are used extensively, producing a tactile, organic ambience.
室内设计秉承简约的风格，注重细节，唤起自然世界的感觉，营造出一种身临其境的环境。这种方法营造了一种和谐的氛围，每个细节都营造出一种宁静和舒适的感觉。这种颜色和材料的融合形成了一个宁静的背景，与异构的城市环境形成鲜明对比。柔和的色调融入空间，同时广泛使用石材和木材等天然材料，营造出一种触觉、有机的氛围。
The only truly distinct spaces are the master bedroom and office, due to their upstairs location, but even here, a double height and open staircase provide a visual link between levels, preserving a sense of openness.
唯一真正独特的空间是主卧室和办公室，因为它们位于楼上，但即使在这里，双高和开放的楼梯也提供了楼层之间的视觉联系，保留了开放感。
The building incorporates innovative technologies to make daily life more practical and efficient. Home automation control systems enable lighting, heating, air conditioning and security to be managed remotely, while ensuring responsible energy consumption. The integration of double-frame insulated walls, the installation of triple-glazed windows and doors, and radiant floor heating all contribute to a significant improvement in energy efficiency and comfort.
该建筑融合了创新技术，使日常生活更加实用和高效。家庭自动化控制系统可以远程管理照明、供暖、空调和安全，同时确保负责任的能源消耗。双框架隔热墙的集成、三层玻璃门窗的安装以及地板辐射采暖都有助于显着提高能源效率和舒适度。
The house not only embodies a dialogue with the built context, but also offers a refuge where time seems to slow down, allowing for the contemplation of the urban landscape. The result is a sanctuary amid the hustle and bustle of the city.
这座房子不仅体现了与建筑环境的对话，而且还提供了一个时间似乎放慢脚步的避难所，允许人们对城市景观进行沉思。其结果是在城市的喧嚣中建立了一个避难所。
