Little Shelter酒店，清邁，通過傳統木瓦來延續當地建築的特征

Little Shelter酒店位于清邁，古老的城市景觀和充滿鄉土氣息的建築特征通過帶有斜屋頂的木結構凸顯出來。酒店屋頂的形狀參考並致敬了當地的傳統建築，以不對稱的形式與周圍的樹冠自然地融爲一體。屋頂的西側敞開于戶外，形成一個屋頂平台，可供客人們在日落時欣賞河流全景。

Little Shelter is located in Chiang Mai where its old cityscape and vernacular architecture are characterized by wood structure with shingle pitched roof. The hotel roof form inspired by traditional hip roofs as homage to the local architecture has a little reinterpretation with an asymmetrical form blending naturally with the surrounding tree top silhouette. The west side of the roof is partially carved out to become a roof deck for guests to enjoy the panoramic river view at sunset.

設計通過使用傳統木瓦來延續當地建築的特征。這種有趣的材料系統已經經曆了數百年的發展。小尺寸的木瓦單元像魚鱗般排列成一塊密不透水的建築平面。在該項目中，建築師試圖將新的材料融入這一系統，以創造出富有現代感、同時又根植于傳統的建築表面。

The design continues the local architectural character through the use of the predominant traditional material – the wood shingles. The most interesting aspect of the material is in its system that has been well developed for hundreds of years. Small units of wood shingles are laid out like fish scales to become a watertight architectural plane. The design has explored a possibility to fuse new materials into the system to create a contemporary architectural surface yet deeply rooted in tradition.

建築的屋頂和側牆均使用了木瓦。在朝向河流的一側，聚碳酸酯版被切割成與木瓦相同的尺寸，構建出一個半透明的立面。入口立面的頂部采用了實木的瓦片，這些木瓦從上方“灑落”下來，逐漸與聚碳酸酯表面融爲一體。雖然二者看似連接在一起，但實際上這種連續的半透明表面是通過特殊的半透明螺柱和透明螺釘而實現的。隨著陽光照射在不同的材料上，建築的立面將變得閃閃發光。透過立面的光線在不同的時間營造出不同的室內氛圍。

The wood shingles are used on the roof and side walls. On the river facade, polycarbonate sheets are cut into the same size as wood shingles and constructed to become the architectural translucent facade. On the entrance façade, the upper portion is composed of solid wood shingles and they trickle down to mixed with polycarbonate shingles on the lower part. Although working with the traditional shingle system, the uninterrupted translucency surface is achieved by a special detail design using translucent studs and special transparent screws. The facade is glittering in the sun as the light touches different material grains, from the solid wood shingles to the different translucency levels of the polycarbonate shingles. The light passes through the facade and creates varying interior atmosphere at different time with the changing light condition of the sky.

夜晚，從建築內部發出的光線使其看上去猶如河岸上的燈籠，比起建築物而言，它更像是一件優美的工藝作品。

At night with the light from the inside, the building becomes a lantern glowing on the riverbank. The structure seems less of a building but becomes more like a piece of craftwork.

公共區域的設計與建築外部的簡潔感形成和諧的呼應，呈現出畫廊般的觀感，空間頂部還裝飾著專門定制的裝置藝術品，其靈感源于經典的Boh–Srang傘，以精致而獨特的造型對當地手工藝進行了現代化的诠釋。

The public area interior complements the exterior simplicity, gives a gallery-like feeling that accommodates the site-specific installations inspired by the famous Boh–Srang umbrella, and creates delicate and dramatic silhouettes expressing contemporary interpretation of the local handicraft.
