历史文脉的尊重与创新：Lodge Evanston项目最引人注目之处在于其对历史建筑的巧妙再利用。设计师没有选择完全推倒重建，而是保留了具有历史意义的教堂结构，并对其进行改造。这不仅是对埃文斯顿城市文脉的尊重，也体现了可持续发展的设计理念。通过剥离后期添加的装饰，恢复原始立面，项目成功地将历史建筑的魅力与现代生活的需求相结合。同时，这种手法也赋予了项目独特的个性和文化价值，使其在千篇一律的现代建筑中脱颖而出。

空间布局的多样性与高效性：该项目在有限的场地内实现了多样化的单元类型，这是其设计精髓之一。通过保留教堂结构并增加紧凑的附加结构，设计师不仅增加了住房密度，还创造了双层和三层公寓，为居民提供了意想不到的布局和独特的室内体验。这种设计策略有效地利用了空间，避免了传统走廊式建筑的低效性。同时，多样化的户型也满足了不同人群的需求，提升了项目的整体吸引力。此外，项目还注重无障碍设计，体现了对社会责任的担当。

可持续发展与社会责任的体现：Lodge Evanston项目不仅仅是一个建筑设计，更是一个体现可持续发展和社会责任的案例。通过改造废弃的教堂，项目减少了建筑垃圾，降低了环境影响。同时，项目融入了经济适用房，体现了设计师对包容性住房的关注，为不同收入人群提供了居住机会。这种对历史建筑的尊重、对空间的高效利用以及对社会责任的承担，使得Lodge Evanston项目成为一个具有前瞻性的建筑范例，为城市更新和可持续发展提供了宝贵的经验。

建筑师提供的文字描述响应式填充-埃文斯顿旅馆恢复了伊利诺伊州埃文斯顿市中心的一座废弃教堂结构，将其改造成距离西北大学几个街区的30套公寓，以及一条连接芝加哥市中心的公交线路。该项目跨越了西部低密度住宅城市结构和东部大型商业和机构混合用途区之间的边界，保留了埃文斯顿历史结构的关键部分，同时在一个未充分利用和交通相邻的地块上，通过多种单元类型的混合增加了住房密度。
Text description provided by the architects. Responsive Infill- Lodge Evanston revived an abandoned church structure in downtown Evanston, Illinois, transforming it with a new addition into 30 apartments a few blocks from Northwestern University as well as a transit line connecting to downtown Chicago. Straddling the boundary between low-density residential urban fabric to the west and a large-scale commercial and institutional mixed-use zone to the east, the project preserved a key piece of Evanston's historic fabric while adding housing density with a diverse mix of unit types on an underutilized and transit-adjacent lot.

Plans

为新的现在保留历史-1910年，该建筑最初建在教堂街和橡树大道的拐角处，主要是为瑞典移民社区而建，该遗址上的现有建筑被苏约纳圣约教堂使用了一百多年。与许多城市教会一样，到2018年，教堂的人数已经减少到只有25人，教堂决定出售该物业。原始立面由普通砖组成，几乎没有装饰，其特点是拱形窗户和主门上方独特的尖形开口。1950年的一次翻修——在该物业被收购时，其改动仍然完好无损——在主入口门处增加了彩绘装饰窗饰、人造壁柱和半月形横梁，覆盖了建筑的原始历史设计。设计团队与历史委员会和发现的图像合作，剥离了添加的元素，恢复了原始的窗户开口，并将砖表面喷砂至原始的未涂漆状态。
Retaining History For A New Present- Originally constructed at the corner of Church Street and Oak Avenue in 1910 for a largely Swedish immigrant community, the existing building on the site was used by the Soujorner Covenant Church for over a hundred years. Like many urban congregations, it had dwindled to just 25 people by 2018, and the church decided to sell the property. Composed of common brick with little ornamentation, the original facade featured arched windows and a distinctive pointed opening above the main doors. A 1950 renovation – whose changes were still intact at the time the property was acquired – had added painted decorative window trim, faux pilasters, and a half-moon transom at the main entry doors, covering up the building's original historic design. The design team worked with the historic commission and the found imagery to strip back added elements, restoring original window openings and sandblasting the brick surface back to its original unpainted condition.

从演示中拯救出来-项目开发商是一名居住在附近芝加哥的住房专家，精通适应性再利用，最初认为教堂结构由于其双层圣所和错层入口的规模和配置而难以再利用。设计团队最初研究了拆除教堂的方案，并用双层走廊建筑将场地填充到分区规范的最大值，但L形场地的狭窄宽度和所需的退缩造成了住房的低效围护结构。
Saved From Demo - The project developer, a housing specialist based in nearby Chicago and well-versed in adaptive reuse, initially assumed the church structure was too difficult to reuse due to the scale and configuration of its double-height sanctuary and split-level entry. The design team initially studied options for demolishing the church and infilling the site to zoning code maximums with a double-loaded corridor building, but the narrow width and required setbacks on the L-shaped site created an inefficient envelope for housing.

创造多样性-保留现有的教堂结构，并添加一个紧凑的附加结构，最大限度地增加了单元数量以及采光、通风和景观的围墙面积。由此产生的公寓单元组合和独特的双层和三层类型为居民提供了意想不到的布局和特殊的室内体验，为该项目创造了一个明确的身份，这与新建筑市场中推广的典型一致性不同。该建筑是包容性住房的典范，有三个经济适用房，包括一个两居室和两个一居室。三个底层单元提供直接从橡树大道进入的ADA无障碍公寓，包括一个A类单元和两个可调节单元。
Creating Variety- Retaining the existing church structure and adding a compact addition maximized unit count as well as perimeter wall area for light, air, and views. The resulting unit mix of flats and unique bi-level and tri-level typologies provided unexpected layouts and special interior experiences for residents, creating a defining identity for the project, unlike the typical sameness promoted in the new construction marketplace. The building is a model for inclusionary housing, with three affordable units, including one 2-bedroom and two 1-bedroom. Three ground-floor units provide ADA-accessible flats entered directly off Oak Avenue, including one Type A unit and two adaptable units.
