微杂院——茶儿胡同8号——儿童图书馆

2016年阿迦汗建筑奖获奖项目
茶儿胡同是一个安静的胡同，位于繁忙的大栅栏地区，距离天安门广场仅1公里。茶儿胡同8号是一个典型的“大杂院”，曾经有十多个家庭居住。在过去的五十年中，每个家庭在院子里都建造了一个附加的小厨房。这些附加结构形成了一种特殊的密度，通常被认为不具吸引力，几乎所有这些结构在过去的翻新过程中都会被自动拆除。
在这个项目中，我们选择不拆除这些小的附加结构，而是对它们进行修复、重新设计和再利用。通过这样做，我们希望将这些附加结构视为一个重要的历史层面，以及北京胡同中当代市民生活的重要体现，这一层面常常被忽视。
为了与仍然居住在院子里的家庭形成共生关系，我们在现有建筑的斜屋顶下插入了一个由胶合板建成的9平方米儿童图书馆。同时，在一棵大白蜡树下，原来的一个厨房被重新设计成一个6平方米的迷你艺术空间，采用砖砌而成。在它的外面，一条砖阶梯通向屋顶，那里可以探寻树枝和树叶的美妙。
通过茶儿胡同8号院落项目，我们希望加强社区之间的联系，并丰富当地居民的胡同生活。孩子们可以在放学后停下来，挑选一本喜欢的书，在自己的小角落里阅读，直到父母来接他。或者他可以爬上屋顶，坐在阴凉处，与老人进行亲切的交谈。
Winning Project of the 2016 Aga Khan Award for Architecture
Cha’er Hutong (hutong of tea) is a quiet one among the busy Dashilar area within 1km distance from the city center Tiananmen Square. Cha’er Hutong 8 is a typical “Da-Za-Yuan”(big-messy-courtyard) once was occupied by over a dozen families. Over the past five decades, the families each built an added-on small kitchen in the courtyard. These added on structures form a special density that is usually considered not interesting, and almost all of them are automatically wiped out during the renovation practices in the past.
In this project, instead of wiping the small added-on structures out, we try to renovate them, redesign them and re-use them. In doing so, we intend to recognize the added-on structures as an important historical layer and as an critical embodiments of Beijing’s contemporary civilian life in hutong that is so often been overlooked.
Symbiotic to the families who still live in the courtyard, a 9 sqm children’s library built out of ply wood was inserted underneath the pitched roof of an existing building. In the meantime, under the big ash tree, one of the former kitchens was redesigned into a 6-sqm mini art space built out of brick. Outside of it, a trail of brick stairs leads up to the roof, where one may probe into the branches and foliage.
With Cha’er hutong 8 courtyard project we wish to strengthen bonds between communities, as well as to enrich the hutong life of local residents. A child may stop by after school, pick out a favorite book, and read in his little niche before getting picked up by parents. Or he may climb up the roof, sit in the shades, and engage in a cozy conversation with the elderly.
