“我总是为意外和机遇留有余地。”

“I always leave room for serendipity and chance.”

—— Ken Stott

你还记得你的某次“意料之外的美好”经历吗？这是一个关于巧合、偶遇和幸运时刻的故事。机缘巧合对我们的生活有着深远的影响，有时能为我们带来意料之外的惊喜。但是我们往往会忽视这些机缘，没有意识到它能够以积极的方式影响改变我们的生活。

Do you recall your ‘serendipity story’? It is a tale of coincidences, chance encounters and fortuitous moments. Serendipity has profound influence on our lives, creating unexpected but rewarding outcomes. Oftentimes overlooked, we often do not realise that its impact can be life changing, in a positive way.

“偶然性”是这座房子的中心主题。故事围绕着一个家庭渴望找到他们理想中的居所而展开。经过一年的寻找，他们的坚持终于得到了回报，他们相中了两个相邻地块中的一个。不巧的是，他们的首选因为价格问题而落空，最终，面积稍大一些的相邻地块则成为了能够满足他们需求的完美地点。

Serendipity is the central theme of this house. It revolves around a family and the hunt for the location of their forever home. After a year of searching, their persistence paid off when the opportunity to purchase one of two adjacent plots presented itself. As fate would have it, they were outbid on their first choice. They secured the second, a slightly bigger plot, which ended up being the perfect site for their needs.

项目位于城市中心的某个主要住宅区中，坐落在一块扇形的地块上。地块弯曲的边缘沿着主干道的弯道延伸，作为住宅场地，该地块十分抢手，不仅临街，周边还拥有便利的商业设施。然而，这些临街的地理优势往往会伴随着街道车辆噪音和隐私的困扰。尽管该住宅位于人口密集的住宅区内，但屋主人仍然希望在家中也能够享受到户外的自然氛围，进而勾起他们在热带度假胜地时的美好回忆。

Located in a prime residential district in the middle of the city, it sits on a fan-shaped plot. The curved edge runs along the bend of an arterial road, possessing sought-after attributes such as a grand street frontage and proximity to convenient amenities. Such appeal usually comes with concerns of vehicular noise and privacy. Despite being in a densely populated residential area, the Owners’ desire to recreate the feeling of being outdoors at home stem from fond memories of vacations spent in far-away tropical resorts.

Serendipity住宅的设计综合了市中心区位的优势与场地中良好的自然环境优势，堪称是对城市中心环境中开放和无缝花园生活的探索。这里是一处田园诗般的世外桃源，一座位于城市中心的秘密花园中的避难所，它为居住者创造出闹市中心弥足珍贵的平和氛围与充足隐私。层层的植被将住宅包围，将居民与繁忙的街道隔离开来，创造出宁静自然的内心世界。

The design of Serendipity House captures the best of both worlds. Its architecture is an exploration of open and seamless garden living in an urban setting. It is an idyllic hideaway, a sanctuary of secret gardens in the heart of the city living where peace and privacy is prized. The house quietly recedes through layers of vegetation, shielding its inhabitants from the busy street and creating an inner world.

长长的石墙两旁布满了藤蔓植物和高大的树木，郁郁葱葱的植被将住宅隐藏了起来，将建筑与城市环境隔离开来，为居住者创造出充足的隐私。入口设置于9米的悬挑结构之下，整座建筑中只有这里保持了与道路的视觉联系。L型的平面规划将建筑与邻近地块的共享边界相结合，同时为在中央花园中规划出广阔的草坪和一座25米长的游泳池提供了条件，进而为居住者在场地中创造出了一座隐蔽的私人绿洲。

A long stone wall lined with vertical plantings and tall trees conceals a large part of the house, offering privacy and a welcome disconnect from the city surroundings. Only the sheltered entrance beneath the 9m cantilever maintains visual link to the road. The design strategy of an L-shaped parti tucked against the shared boundary of neighbouring lots allows for an expansive lawn and a 25-meter-long swimming pool in the central garden, creating a secluded and private oasis.

设计旨在探索“隐私”与“连接”之间的微妙平衡，重视室内外的共享联系。带状玻璃门和窗户模糊了室内和室外的界限，将室内外空间融合在一起。当玻璃门与窗户完全打开时，墙体所定义的空间就消失了。所有楼层的走廊和空间均为自然采光，且被周围的植被所环绕。

Delicately balancing privacy and connection, the spaces share common connection with the outdoors. Ribbon glass doors and windows blur the distinction between indoor and outdoor, merging them. The defined spaces disappear when they open fully. Corridors and spaces on all floors are naturally lit and fringed with vegetation.

内敛的选材策略侧重于纹理和色彩。木制屏风与茂盛的植被过滤了从二层照射进来的刺眼热带阳光。深悬的屋檐遮蔽了立面，为人们带来了典型的热带生活体验。设计在不依赖人工手段的情况下，保持了室内热舒适性与灵活性。自从搬进来以后，业主从来没有在宽敞的起居和用餐区打开过空调。

The restrained palette focuses on texture and colour. Timber screens filter harsh tropical sun streaming through the tree canopies on the 2nd storey planter. Deep overhanging eaves that shield the façade completes the experience of living with tropical elements. There is flexibility in maintaining indoor thermal comfort without relying on artificial means. The owners have not turned on the air conditioning in their spacious living and dining area since moving in.

为了保证住宅的私密性，使生活空间远离交通噪音，建筑师将所有私密房间策略性地规划在住宅的两翼。精心设计的祈祷室位于建筑侧翼一端的正门上方，主浴室则位于另一端，进而使二楼的卧室远离了道路。高高的天花板将充足的自然光线引入宽敞的室内空间，创造出舒适的生活环境。为了向热带度假胜地的美学致敬，设计特意选择了坡屋顶的建筑形式，为屋主人实现了他们所向往的、类似于周末度假俱乐部会所的生活方式。

To achieve privacy and distance from traffic noise, every room is purposefully located along the two wings of the house. Deliberate location of the altar room above the main door at one end of the wing and the master bathroom at the other end keep the bedrooms on the second floor furthest away from the road. The light brief permitted for large spacious rooms and high ceilings. In a nod to the aesthetic of a tropical resort, the opportunity to design a beautiful pitched roof was not left to chance. The Owners wanted a lifestyle that resembles weekend retreats in a resort clubhouse.

在该项目落成一年后，屋主人透露曾经他们考察了近15处地块，采访了近10位建筑师，最终选择了Wallflower Architecture + Design事务所。本项目的建筑师也认为，屋主人在机缘巧合下购入的第二个地块，实际上在各方面都是一个更好的选择。这栋住宅提醒了我们在面对机遇和对各种可能性时，应该保持开放的心态。这些机遇往往是改变人生的关键转折点，它需要的不仅仅是正确的时间、正确的地点，更需要准备充分的头脑，以及深思熟虑的设计，才能使这些个偶然的梦想成为现实，并脱颖而出！

A year after completion, the owners revealed that they had viewed close to 15 plots of land and interviewed close to 10 architects. The architect affirmed that the second plot was in fact a better site in all aspects. Serendipity is a reminder of the power of chance and being open to possibilities. Often cited as key to life-changing decisions, it takes more than being in the right place, at the right time. It takes a well-prepared mind to make a serendipitous dream comes true. And brought to the fore through thoughtful design!
