本項(xiàng)目受該倫敦街區(qū)作為社區(qū)商業(yè)及娛樂(lè)設(shè)施聚集場(chǎng)所的悠久歷史啟發(fā)，旨在打造一個(gè)充滿活力的綜合區(qū)域，并展現(xiàn)建筑風(fēng)格，帶動(dòng)公共區(qū)域改造及重新定位遺產(chǎn)資產(chǎn)。

KPF作為總體規(guī)劃及建筑設(shè)計(jì)單位，在考文特花園以及花苑和馬車大廳一系列建筑改造工程中做出巨大貢獻(xiàn)。設(shè)計(jì)團(tuán)隊(duì)編制的總體規(guī)劃方案通過(guò)將小型空間融入城市空間，增強(qiáng)場(chǎng)所營(yíng)造感。從規(guī)劃角度而言，多層設(shè)計(jì)手法有助于精心打造并增強(qiáng)相互交織的城市肌理；而從材質(zhì)角度而言，歷史結(jié)構(gòu)保護(hù)及翻新是本項(xiàng)目的一個(gè)主要部分。

位于花卉街上的住宅樓外立面采用兩種磚砌類型。其中一種類型參照相鄰建筑，而另外一種類型特意與此形成對(duì)比。在采用淺色磚砌結(jié)構(gòu)的轉(zhuǎn)角，特色開(kāi)間區(qū)域設(shè)置豎向窗框，突出豎向布置的倉(cāng)庫(kù)隔條箱感官效果。粉末噴涂鋼結(jié)構(gòu)窗戶與該主題保持一致，但在規(guī)模及比例上呈現(xiàn)獨(dú)特現(xiàn)代化風(fēng)格。附近花卉街11-12號(hào)定制釉陶面磚外立面設(shè)計(jì)靈感源自種花莢肌理與外形，參照建筑先前作為種子倉(cāng)庫(kù)的功能。針對(duì)馬車大廳，設(shè)計(jì)團(tuán)隊(duì)與細(xì)木工專家合作設(shè)計(jì)硬木店面以與恢復(fù)的建筑原始鑄鐵框架相得益彰。

This London neighborhood’s history as a community-gathering place for commerce and entertainment inspired its objective to become a vibrant, mixed-use district as well as its palette of architectural styles, each of which stimulated public realm improvements and the repositioning of heritage assets.

As both master planner and architect, KPF contributed to the regeneration of Covent Garden and a collection of buildings at Floral Court and Carriage Hall. The team proposed a master plan that intensified placemaking through the assemblage of small-scale spaces into urban rooms. From a planning perspective, this multilayered approach promotes the careful craft of weaving an enhanced city fabric. From a material perspective, a major component of this agenda was the conservation and refurbishment of historic structures.

On Floral Court, the residential building facades utilize two brick types: one that references adjacent buildings and one that deliberately contrasts them. On the corner with the lighter bricks, feature bays with vertical follies elicit the look and feel of stacked warehouse crates. Their steel, powder coated windows remain consistent with this theme but are distinctly modern in scale and proportion. Nearby,the bespoke faience tile facade at 11-12 Floral Street draws inspiration from the texture and form of a seed pod – a reference to the building’s prior use as a seed warehouse. At Carriage Hall, the team worked with joinery specialists to design hardwood timber storefronts that complement the restoration of the building’s original, cast iron frame.
