布羅德維尤100號大廳，多倫多，加拿大

布羅德維尤100 號原是兩條繁忙街道拐角處的一個自助存儲設施，位于一棟新建公寓樓的下方，曾經是多倫多東區一棟不起眼而處境尷尬的建筑。在對該建筑進行改造時，房地產投資開發集團哈爾馬克聯手Quadrangle 建筑事務所，針對“新經濟型”租戶量身打造一座方便出入且具有吸引力的大廳。為了吸引目標用戶，哈爾馬克想對布羅德維尤100 號大廳做一次大膽的嘗試——將其界定為一座創意中心。

布羅德維尤100 號大廳除了毫無存在感，還不易通行：入口通道沒有直接的無障礙通道，來訪者需拾級而上幾英尺才可到達“底樓”，或下行幾級臺階前往較低樓層。走廊沒有路標或標識導向，進一步造成了混亂，租賃效果不理想。

Quadrangle 建筑事務所的設計任務是通過挖掘該建筑的潛力和歷史，同時注入當代精神，整體提升布羅德維尤100 號——讓它不僅轉變為一個設計巧妙且具有吸引力的空間，還可以充當富有活力的社區中心，更可以作為一項明智的長期地產投資項目。

該設計方案從懸掛在大堂入口上方的招牌入手，明亮的橙色招牌與紅磚和灰色砂漿的立面形成對比，既突顯了該建筑的特征又明確了入口的位置。而該建筑最大的改動之處是將樓板拆除，把底樓的大部分空間都變為一個引人注目的大廳。設計師們設計了一段之字形的下行混凝土坡道，引導人們前往上面的樓層或地下室層，營造出一種進深感和動感。與該坡道相交的是貼有橙色可視條的下行樓梯以及帶木踏板的黑色鋼制上行樓梯。這些元素重疊交錯，創造了一個具有質感且氣派的建筑入口。

設計團隊拆除了地板后，取而代之的是一座充滿動感的大廳，為這個一度定義模糊的空間注入了新活力。這種富有工業元素的平衡感、怡人的溫暖和繽紛的色彩，共同打造了一個建筑入口處。該入口向創造性思維和創新的想法敞開大門，也樂意供人們集會或休息。布羅德維尤100 號向人們展示了通用化設計如何超越無障礙設計：其功能性坡道為輪椅使用者提供了便利，而明亮的色彩則為視力障礙者提供了具有高對比度的路徑。□

6 業主放棄了可出租的空間，看到了創造有趣的內部景觀使布羅德維尤100號成為一個獨特地點的價值/Giving up leasable space, the building's owner saw value in creating an interesting internal landscape and making 100 Broadview a distinct address.

A self-storage facility beneath a new condominium at the corner of two busy streets, 100 Broadview was an unremarkable and rather awkward building in Toronto's east end. For this building's transformation, real estate investment and development group Hullmark engaged Quadrangle Architects with the goal of creating an accessible and attractive lobby, targeting new-economy tenants. To entice the intended demographic, Hullmark wanted to make a bold statement at grade - something that would demarcate 100 Broadview as a creative hub.

Beyond 100 Broadview's virtual invisibility, it was also inaccessible: the entryway denied direct, barrier-free access, forcing users to climb a few feet to the "ground floor" or descend a few steps to the lower level. Hallways lacked signage or wayfinding, creating further confusion and discouraging tenancy.

Quadrangle's mandate for this design was to upgrade 100 Broadview by embracing the building's potential and history, infusing it with a contemporary spirit that would not only transform it into an attractive, well-designed space, but also a vibrant, neighbourhood hub while providing a wise investment in the property in long-term.

Quadrangle's solution starts with a bright orange sign hanging above the lobby entrance, contrasting with the red brick and grey mortar fa?ade, giving the building an identity and clearly marking the entrance. Their big move was to cut out the slab and transform the lion's share of the ground level into a dramatic lobby. They designed a concrete ramp that zigzags downwards, drawing users to both the upper and basement levels with a sense of depth and movement. Intersecting the ramp are stairs downwards, marked with orange visibility strips, and a blackened steel staircase with wood treads leads upwards. These elements overlap, creating a textured and grand entrance to the building.

The team's demolition of the floor plate and the dynamic lobby created in its stead have given new life to this once ill-defined space. This balance of industrial elements, inviting warmth and dynamic colour define an entryway that welcomes creative and innovative thought, as well as congregation and rest. With the featured ramp creating a path for users of mobility devices and the bright colours producing high-contrast pathways for those with visual impairments, 100 Broadview demonstrates how universal design goes beyond mere accessibility.□

評論

周靜敏：該項目形成了一種新的空間形態，樓梯、坡道的組合使得室內地面產生層次錯落的起伏，巧妙地連接了3個不同高度的基面層（入口層、底層、低樓層），解決了難以通行的問題。高對比度的色彩運用及標志系統的整合設計，也大大提升了空間的可識別度，這種室內的豐富性、動態感與建筑外部給人的規整性、歷史感形成鮮明對比。

同時，高差變化也為建筑入口帶來了活力，行走的人流、駐足的人流可以在不同高度層發生視線的交換。可以說，該項目的目的及意義不僅僅是改善無障礙通行，更著力于提升空間的整體性能與品質，創造偶遇的發生，重塑建筑在場地中的生機與活力。

Comments

LYU Xiaoquan: The conversion of an existing building has always been a challenge for both design and construction. By introducing the contemporary spirit to this project, the designer has successfully converted the lifeless, old space into a vibrant community centre. This accessible design focuses on the remodeling of the hall which plays a key role in the project, and employs the accessible pathways with a warning colour to connect the multistorey space that was originally accessed by stairs. Although the zigzag ramps without dual handrails can be inconvenient for people to use, it indeed illustrates a sense of dynamism. The design of the stairs has considered the need for different users, while the detectable tactile paving is added into the beginning of the stairway. Different colours are adopted for the accessible functional rooms on each floor, which allows the style of this architectural design to be simple. Such a design can be deemed to be an exploration of a creative accessible design. (Translated by Dandan Wang)

ZHOU Jingmin: This project has formed a new kind of space formation. The combination of stairs and ramps makes the interior floor have fluctuations of different layers. It skillfully connects three base layers of different heights (entrance floor, bottom floor and lower floor) and solves the problem of di☆culty to pass through. The high contrast use of colours and the integrated design of the sign system also greatly improved the spatial identities. This kind of richness and dynamism of the interior are in sharp contrast with the regularity and historicity of the exterior of the building.

At the same time, the change of elevation also brings vitality to the entrance of the building. The flow of people walking and stopping can exchange looks at different elevations. It can be said that the purpose and significance of the project is not only to improve the access to the disabled, but also to improve the overall performance and quality of the space, create the occurrence of encounters, and reshape the vitality and activeness of the building on the site.
