加拿大溫哥華　摺疊式房屋

本案在施工進行期間，業主夫婦的女兒參與討論，並帶來了嶄新的設計觀點。她邀請團隊重新構此宅的整體設計，並期望打破傳統居住場域的規劃邏輯與功能配置，藉由外部的幾何結構，與溫潤的材質語彙，將自然延伸至室內。

Midway through construction, the client took over the project from her parents and engaged McLeod Bovell to re-conceptualize the house with a fresh perspective. She challenged the designers to reconsider conventional residential programming and spatial relationships. This led to a design intervention that clarified the geometry and materiality of the house's exterior and reflected these ideas within the interiors.

摺疊式牆面、懸浮地坪與傾斜天花板，共同創造出彈性的過渡地帶，以及充滿戲劇張力的空間框景，讓動線猶如一場電影敘事般層層展開。視線、光線與空間在轉角處依序揭示，同時弱化門與走廊的存在感，並模糊各區域之間的界線；家具陳設簡約且具雕塑感，兼具多重使用方式，強調區域的流動性。

Folded walls, hovering floors, and angled ceilings create flexible thresholds and dynamic prosceniums that guide movement through the house in a cinematic way. Views, light, and spaces unfold gradually, and traditional markers like doors and hallways are minimized to blur programmatic boundaries. Sparse, sculptural furniture supports multiple modes of use, reinforcing the fluidity of the space. 

Material choices were guided by the site's natural context. The house sits on a floodplain within the Fraser River delta, an area prone to seasonal flooding. In response, Accoya wood — a durable, acetylated pine developed in the Netherlands for wet environments — was used throughout. Its distinctive industrial markings remain visible, evoking both its treatment process and its resilience. Left untreated, the wood weathers into a soft grey, echoing the site's retained hemlock trees.

此外，為了進一步回應既有水文條件，住宅最底層避免使用石膏板與填充式隔熱材料，避免積水滲透造成損害，機電系統則設於防水機房中。景觀設計則將周邊濕地視為整體設計的一環，以「摺疊層次」展開三重構成：第一層為河流沉積物，透過車道與階梯等機能性鋪面表現；第二層為濕地植群與原生植物，形成低地與高地之間的柔性過渡；第三層則是人工構築的元素，如步道、座椅與棧橋，宛如漂浮於景觀之上。

To further adapt to the site's hydrological conditions, the lowest level omits drywall and insulation to prevent water damage, while mechanical systems are housed in a waterproof bunker. The landscape design treats the surrounding wetlands as integral to the project, expressed through three folded layers. The first, representing river sediment, is articulated through functional surfaces like the driveway and stairs. The second layer, composed of wetland vegetation and native plantings, forms a soft transition between low-lying areas and elevated ground. The third consists of constructed elements — walkways, benches, and boardwalks — that appear to float above the landscape. Overall, the project is a meditation on the relationship between architecture and its natural setting. Every element — from folded forms to material choices — expresses an understanding of place and a reinterpretation of what a family house can be in such a context.
