设计挑战与创新应对：面对极为苛刻的场地条件——150平米的基地、历史悠久的火车站、以及复杂的消防和声学要求——“纽堡光之塔”展现了卓越的设计智慧。设计师巧妙地将建筑设计成迷你塔楼，通过每个住宅独占一层的方式，最大化了空间利用率和居住品质。更值得称道的是，项目大胆采用玻璃砖作为主要材料，既满足了防火和采光需求，又赋予了建筑独特的光影效果。这种设计不仅解决了实际的建筑难题，更赋予了建筑一种“灯笼”般的美学意境，在城市环境中创造出引人注目的视觉焦点。

模块化与材料运用的精妙：项目在设计中充分运用了模块化设计，并结合预制构件、玻璃砖面板和可操作的嵌入式玻璃，以实现建筑的简洁性和高效性。南北立面采用半透明设计，配合极简的核心筒，营造出通透的视觉效果，并最大程度地引入自然光线。同时，建筑材料的选择也颇具匠心，如现浇混凝土的使用，既保证了建筑的结构安全，又为底层公共空间提供了坚实的基础。内部材料方面，木质镶板、天然石材和陶瓷瓷砖的运用，营造出温馨舒适的居住氛围，与外部的玻璃砖形成鲜明对比，进一步丰富了建筑的视觉层次和光影效果，从而强调了材料本身的质感。

功能布局与可持续设计理念：“纽堡光之塔”不仅在外观和材料上有所创新，在功能布局和可持续性方面也展现了卓越的设计理念。通过分隔卧室和浴室，增加了第三个可分离房间的可能性，并预留了储物和自行车空间，满足了不同居住者的需求。同时，项目还充分考虑了未来的扩建和通风需求。内部空间设计中，通过纹理玻璃门和内墙，实现了光线在地板上的渗透，营造了丰富的光影变化，进一步提升了居住体验。总而言之，该项目在极小的空间内实现了居住功能的最大化，并实现了设计美学和可持续发展理念的完美结合，是一次对高密度居住模式的成功探索。

The Newburgh Tower of Light is located in Auburn Village, Melbourne, Australia, with a prime location that offers a highly sustainable housing solution. It can accommodate 21 people on a nearly impossible 150 square meter site and on a historic train station, with a total of 10 floors. Due to the lack of a street entrance, the north facade is directly adjacent to the Victorian Transport Authority, and complex fire safety, building methods, acoustics, uniform lighting, and stability requirements dominate most of the design process. The response is a mini tower type, where each residence has a complete floor and uses glass bricks as a key material to meet fire and lighting requirements. Conceptually, the semi transparent exterior wall combined with the entire reflective finish forms a lantern in the public domain, while creating a brief effect within the residence.
纽堡光之塔位于澳大利亚墨尔本的奥本村，地理位置优越，提供了一种高度可持续的住房解决方案，在几乎无法建造的 150 平方米的场地上，在历史悠久的火车站上，可容纳 21 人，共 10 层。由于没有街道入口，北立面直接毗邻维多利亚州交通局，复杂的消防、建筑方法、声学、均匀的光线和稳定性要求主导了大部分设计过程。回应是一个迷你塔类型，每个住宅都有完整的楼层，使用玻璃砖作为关键材料来满足防火和采光要求。从概念上讲，半透明的外墙与整个反射饰面相结合，形成了公共领域的灯笼，同时在住宅内创造了短暂的效果。

In order to address building limitations, the design adopts modularity and clean and concise expressions commonly found in dense urban environments. The north and south facades use prefabricated components, glass brick panels, and operable embedded glass to maximize connectivity with light and landscape. The north and south facades need to be completely semi transparent and complemented by a minimal core to achieve future facing lighting. The complex metal details on the prefabricated panels can be seen from the interior and adjacent train stations.
为了解决建筑限制，该设计采用了模块化以及在密集的城市环境中常见的干净简洁的表达方式。北立面和南立面使用预制构件，采用玻璃砖面板和可操作嵌入式玻璃，最大限度地与光线和景观相连。南北立面需要完全半透明，并辅以最小的核心，以实现面向未来的光线。从内部和相邻的火车站可以看到预制面板上复杂的金属细节。

Cast in place concrete was selected for its ability to withstand train derailment, forming the ground level and equipped with integrated seats to activate the small coffee shop in front of the entrance and pedestrian railway connection line. The cobblestone road paved with bluestone extends from the alley on one side to the sidewalk on the other, forming a complementary pixelated pattern that emphasizes maximum bottom layer permeability despite the small size of the plot.
现浇混凝土因其能够承受火车脱轨而被选中，它构成了地面层，并配有集成座椅，以激活入口和行人铁路连接线前的小咖啡店。青石铺成的鹅卵石路从一侧的小巷一直延伸到另一侧的人行道，形成了一种互补的像素化图案，尽管地块很小，但强调了最大化的底层渗透性。

一层平面图

In order to expand the appeal, especially considering the proximity to the train, we separated the bedroom and bathroom, increasing the possibility of a third separable room and adding a certain degree of storage/bike space, which also attracted students or individuals to share. Although fully functional, this layout is also crucial for achieving the required level of lighting in future situations, as the private land to the north should be expanded and produce excellent cross ventilation.
为了扩大吸引力，特别是考虑到靠近火车，我们将卧室和浴室分开，增加了第三个可分离房间的可能性，并增加了一定程度的存储/自行车空间，也吸引了学生或个人共享。虽然功能齐全，但这种布局对于在未来的情况下达到所需的光照水平也是至关重要的，因为在未来的情况下，北面的私人土地应该扩建，并产生极好的交叉通风。

The language of architectural grid is applied to the interior material palette through wooden paneling, natural stone, and ceramic tiles. Glass bricks present a unique interior decoration, creating brilliant and varied lighting effects throughout the day. Realize light penetration through the floor through textured glass doors and interior walls. The upper level is a customized top-level apartment, with a residential building consisting of two floors. Despite the high modular efficiency of the building, it still maintains its uniqueness.
建筑网格的语言通过木质镶板、天然石材和瓷砖应用于室内材料调色板。玻璃砖呈现出独特的内部装饰，全天都能创造出灿烂多变的光线效果。通过纹理玻璃门和内墙实现光穿过地板的渗透性。上层是定制的顶层公寓，一栋住宅有两层，尽管建筑物的模块化效率很高，但仍然保有其独特性。

While balancing performance, scale, and significant site constraints, this project requires close collaboration between the design, consulting, and construction teams to make the project feasible and achieve its aesthetic appeal through simple means.
在平衡性能、规模和重大场地限制的同时，该项目需要设计、顾问和施工团队之间的密切合作，使项目可行，并通过简单的手段实现了项目的美观。

白天，纽堡光之塔呈现出高度精致感，到了晚上，它是一盏明灯，温暖路过的人们乃至整个奥本村。
