I didn't really draw much inspiration from other sources other than them.

除了他們，我並沒有從其他方面汲取太多靈感。

My clients, Jack and Sarah, live here, they're in their early twenties and this is their first home that they've lived in together.

我的客戶傑克和莎拉住在這裡，他們才二十出頭，這是他們共同居住的第一個家。

The brief was to create a space that was really functional, minimal because of how small the space was as well and they wanted everything to be sourced sustainably, have a muted colour palette with a Japanese and Danish influence in there as well.

由於空間狹小，他們的設計要求是打造一個真正實用、簡約的空間，並希望所有物品的來源都是可持續的，色調柔和，同時融入日式和丹麥風格。

Before we arrived the apartment was very dark and dated, it felt very cluttered and a lot of the space wasn't being utilised very well.

在我們抵達之前，公寓非常昏暗陳舊，感覺非常雜亂，很多空間都沒有得到很好的利用。

We didn't change the layout a lot, it was mostly the kitchen and just extending the kitchen bench so it could work as a workspace.

我們沒有對佈局做太大改動，主要是廚房，只是把廚房的長凳加長，使其可以用作工作區。

Other than that everything pretty much remained the same.

除此之外，一切基本保持不變。

The bathroom hasn't been renovated as of yet, they wanted to create this space and then really draw inspiration to what they're going to actually do for the bathroom so that's a stage two renovation.

浴室還沒有裝修過，他們想先創造出這個空間，然後再從浴室的實際裝修中汲取靈感，所以這是第二階段的裝修。

The living space, the whole colour palette is really muted, there's no really strong texture anywhere, you just see a lot of American oak, flooring is American oak, the sofa is American oak.

起居室的整體色調非常柔和，沒有任何強烈的紋理，你只能看到大量的美國橡木，地板是美國橡木，沙發是美國橡木。

We also didn't include any rug or coffee table you'll notice just because we wanted the space to feel really open with no clutter.

我們沒有鋪地毯，也沒有擺茶几，因為我們想讓空間感覺非常開闊，沒有雜物。

The sofa really is the hero piece of the living space, we created a custom sofa to actually shape around some of those angles where it's quite low and just having that linen as well kind of creates that earthy organic feel.

沙發是整個起居空間的主角，我們定製了一個沙發，使它在一些角度上顯得更加低矮，亞麻布料也營造出一種樸實的有機感。

We actually built in and extended the sofa so there was a slight coffee table that they could use there.

實際上，我們在沙發上加蓋並加長了沙發，這樣他們就可以在那裡使用一張小茶几。

They also didn't want a TV so everything in the space again is going back to basics.

他們也不想要電視機，所以這個空間裡的一切又都回歸到了最基本的狀態。

With the kitchen we kept it all white, white subway tiles with an inclusion of a little bit of timber just to warm the space up.

在廚房裡，我們採用了全白色的地磚，並加入了少許木材，使空間更加溫暖。

All the kitchen cabinetry is also matte and there's no handles, they're all pool handles.

所有的廚房櫥櫃也都是啞光的，沒有把手，都是水池把手。

My clients are really big foodies so they wanted quite a large pantry space so we popped this right next to the fridge, the integrated fridge, so both of them look quite discreet and the lines are actually level, you can't really tell which one is the fridge and which one is the pantry.

我的客戶非常喜歡美食，所以他們想要一個很大的儲藏室空間，所以我們就把這個儲藏室放在了冰箱（一體化冰箱）的旁邊，這樣兩個儲藏室看起來都很隱蔽，線條也很平整，你真的分不清哪個是冰箱，哪個是儲藏室。

Part of the brief was for my clients to be able to work from home so we extended the kitchen benchtop by about two and a half metres and have a workstation there and then also included some additional drawers at the very end of the bench.

我們的任務之一是讓客戶能夠在家工作，是以我們將廚房的檯面加長了約兩米半，在臺面上設置了一個工作臺，並在檯面的末端增加了一些抽屜。

We moved up all the switches as well so they sat above the benchtop so they could charge their computers, their laptops or their phones when they're working.

我們還把所有開關都移到了工作臺上方，這樣他們就可以在工作時為電腦、筆記本電腦或手機充電。

My clients really wanted a kitchen benchtop that was durable and cost effective so we went with an engineered stone, it's just a white quartz and it runs through the workstation all the way through to the pantry and there's one clean line that you see with the integrated fridge in the pantry space that sits right against the stone.

我的客戶非常想要一個既耐用又經濟實惠的廚房檯面，所以我們選用了人造石，它是一種白色石英石，從工作臺一直延伸到儲藏室。

There's quite a lot of storage in this studio apartment, all the storage runs through the sink behind the cabinetry.

這間單間公寓的儲物空間相當大，所有的儲物空間都穿過櫥櫃後面的水槽。

The only separation between the living area and the bedroom are shutters that fold back, they were in really bad condition when we first started the project so we took them off, repaired them and gave them a fresh coat of paint and we often have these open just to bring in the light into the bedroom and then at night time they close them.

起居室和臥室之間唯一的隔斷是摺疊式百葉窗，剛開始施工時，百葉窗的狀況非常糟糕，所以我們把它們拆下來，進行了修補，並刷了一層新漆。

With the bedroom, it's actually quite spacious so we were able to fit a queen bed in there.

臥室其實很寬敞，我們可以在裡面放一張大號床。

We kept the original wardrobes and just repaired the doors, gave them a fresh coat of paint and then we also added the brushed brass handles to tie in with the rest of the fittings including the tapware.

我們保留了原來的衣櫃，只是修補了櫃門，重新刷了一層油漆，然後還添加了拉絲黃銅把手，以便與包括水龍頭在內的其他配件相協調。

So the dining space sits right next to the living room, we included a circular table here to utilise the space.

是以，餐廳空間緊鄰客廳，我們在這裡擺放了一張圓形餐桌，以充分利用空間。

We subtly wanted to create two separate zones with the living room and the dining area and we did this by really introducing the oversized linen pendant lights just above the dining table with exposed wiring.

我們希望巧妙地將客廳和用餐區打造成兩個獨立的區域，為此，我們在餐桌上方引入了超大型亞麻吊燈，並將電線裸露在外。

We kept all the dining chairs nice and low so that you do have a clear view from the bed out from the balcony.

我們把所有餐椅都擺放得很低很低，這樣從床上到陽臺上都能看得一清二楚。

We ensured that all the floor covering is the same throughout so it's just an engineered timber floor and all the furniture was lifted off the floor just to increase the floor space and make each of the spaces feel larger.

我們確保所有的地板覆蓋物都是一樣的，所以只是一塊實木地板，所有的傢俱都從地板上移開，以增加地板空間，讓每個空間都感覺更大。

My philosophy when it comes to designing small spaces is always considering the end user.

在設計小空間時，我的理念始終是考慮最終用戶。

We thought through every piece that we added in here, how they were going to use it, how it would look, just because they are looking at everything every day in such a small space.

我們仔細考慮了在這裡添加的每一件物品，他們將如何使用這些物品，這些物品看起來如何，因為他們每天都要在這麼小的空間裡看著所有的東西。

From a sustainability standpoint, it's really important to repurpose the buildings that we do have currently.

從可持續發展的角度來看，重新利用我們現有的建築確實非常重要。

You can redevelop them and customise them to your client's needs.

您可以根據客戶的需求重新開發和定製它們。

It's vital for the growth of our city to repurpose current buildings and repurpose spaces.

重新利用現有建築和空間對我們城市的發展至關重要。
