笠檐，花植店街面更新设计 / 未形建筑

设计理念与功能性：该项目最突出的亮点在于其对功能的深刻理解与巧妙运用。设计师将“笠檐”的概念巧妙地融入设计，不仅满足了花植店遮阳的需求，还赋予了建筑独特的视觉形象和文化内涵。这种设计思路体现了对场地环境的尊重，对原有建筑的适应性，以及对使用需求的精准把握。此外，项目对材料的选择也与功能需求紧密结合，木结构的运用既满足了快速建造的需要，又营造出温暖、亲和的氛围，与花植店的自然主题相得益彰。

材料与建造的巧妙结合：该项目在材料选择和建造方式上展现了卓越的设计智慧。通过工业化材料的运用，如定制的油画框和镂空藤片，实现了快速、精准的建造，同时降低了成本。这种设计策略不仅体现了对现代建造技术的熟练掌握，也展现了对手工制作的尊重。方木、螺栓连接等细节，都体现了设计者对材料质感和建造工艺的深入理解。这种工业材料与手工制作的结合，使项目在高效建造的同时，保留了手工痕迹，营造出独特的视觉体验，与周围环境形成了和谐的对话。

空间与社区的互动：“笠檐”项目不仅仅是一个建筑设计，更是一次对城市微型公共空间的积极改造与利用。项目巧妙地利用了二楼阳台的结构，巧妙地避开了对原有建筑的过多干预。通过增加节点密度、突出杆件的层叠，营造出温暖、亲切的氛围，吸引了周围居民和行人的驻足。项目在改善街道环境品质的同时，也促进了社区的互动，体现了建筑师对城市肌理和社区文化的深刻理解。这种设计理念，为城市更新和街区活化提供了有益的参考，实现了建筑与社区的共生共荣。

The eaves of the bamboo hat were used by ancient people to protect the pavilion from wind and rain, and to shield it from the scorching sun within ten miles; The hat is reminiscent of its function of providing shelter from rain and sun; The eaves are the main architectural form of this design. ——Li Yan is the name given by his friend Zhou Bo for his work. The design of the eaves of the hat originated from the invitation of her friend Yuan Hua, who took over a flower and plant shop. The storefront left by the previous owner already has a certain visual quality. The main demand for the new storefront is to block the strong summer sunlight for the flowers and plants placed outside; At the same time, a small corner can be created on one side of the wall for resting.
笠檐，古人在十里处置笠亭以避风雨、以遮骄阳；故笠者让人联想起避雨遮阳之功能；檐，为本设计的主要建筑构造形式。——笠檐，是好友周博为作品所取的名字。笠檐的设计源于好友袁桦的邀约，她接手一家花植店，上任店主留下的铺面已经有一定的视觉品质，对于新增门头的主要诉求是希望能为外摆的花草遮挡夏季强烈的阳光直射；同时能在围墙一侧辟出一个可以休憩的小角落。

Huazhi shop is located in the south of the Pearl River Road, the center of the old city of Nanjing. The Ji'e Lane where it is located is a traditional street space in Nanjing. There are many shops on the ground floor of residential buildings on both sides of the street. In recent years, with the popularity of internet famous shops, the shops near Hongmiao and Taiping North Road on both sides of Chicken Goose Lane have been continuously upgraded. However, the middle of the alley is still dominated by hardware, grocery, tobacco and alcohol shops, with low quality and declining business formats; But it is mostly open for residents, with harmonious coexistence between neighbors and a relaxed atmosphere filled with smoke and fire on the streets and alleys. The Weixing Architecture team enjoys observing and reading the city in their daily lives, and actively practices small updates. Therefore, they are delighted to embark on this interesting construction attempt with the goal of revitalizing themselves in three days.
花植店位于南京老城中心珠江路南侧，所在的鸡鹅巷是南京传统的街巷空间，街巷两侧住宅底层店铺林立。近年来，随着网红店铺的流行，鸡鹅巷在东西两侧靠近红庙和太平北路的店铺不断升级，而巷子中部仍以五金、杂货、烟酒等商铺为主，品质不高，业态凋敝；但多为居民开设，邻里间相处和睦，街头巷尾自有一种充满烟火气的松弛氛围。未形建筑团队日常以观察阅读城市为趣，并身体力行实践微小更新，为此欣然以自己动手三天焕新为目标，开展这次有趣的建造尝试。

Facing the present (about the choice of construction form)
The residential building to which Kasai eaves belong was built in the 1980s and 1990s, and has a typical appearance of that era with simple and unremarkable shapes;; It is also overlaid with traces of residents' additions, repairs, and new government actions from different periods, presenting a visual state of randomness and disorder. The most direct response to construction is to avoid touching the original building too much; At the same time, in terms of visual presentation, we want to choose a warm atmosphere with a certain affinity and handmade traces to respond to the spatial scale and visual density of traditional street and alley environments.
直面当下（关于建造形式的选择）
笠檐所属的住宅楼建于上世纪八九十年代，具有那个年代典型的外观简陋、造型无特色的状况；其上还叠加着不同时期居民加建、修补以及政府出新的痕迹，呈现出一种偶然与无序的视觉状态。建造最直接的回应是避免过多地触碰原初的建筑物；同时在视觉呈现上想要选择具有一定亲和力和手工痕迹的温暖氛围，以回应传统街巷环境的空间尺度与视觉密度。

The concept of form originates from its functional demands: to stand out and provide shade. The flower planting shop was originally built using walls and residential courtyards on the ground floor, and the roof and facade do not have the load-bearing capacity for pasting. The direct response to the current situation is to cross the threshold of the status quo and take root from the bottom of the second floor balcony of the main residential building in the rear. After the overhang is completed at the top of the door, the sunshade surface naturally adopts a downward hanging method, and the logical form of the hat eaves is thus generated.
形式的概念源于它所要完成的功能诉求：出挑和遮阳。花植店原本就是利用围墙和住宅底层院落的搭建，屋顶和立面并不具备贴建的承受力。出挑对现状的直接回应是越过现状门头，从后部住宅主体二楼阳台底部生根。出挑在门头上部完成后，遮阳面自然采取下挂的方式，笠檐的形式逻辑就此生成。

Industrial Materials and Handmade
To achieve the goal of rapid and independent construction, we choose a wooden structure solution that is easy to process by hand.. All components have a uniform cross-section, and commonly used square timber in the market is selected. The length is cut by the manufacturer according to the drawings and assembled on site using bolt connections.
工业材料与手工制作
为实现快速自主搭建的目标，我们选择易于手工加工的木构方案。所有构件断面统一，选择市场上常见规格的方木，长度根据图纸由厂家切割完成，现场采用螺栓连接的方式组装。

The production of sunshade fan blades also benefits from the application of industrial materials. Each sunshade fan is composed of a main and a sub frame, which is wrapped in hollow rattan and fixed on the main frame. The main and auxiliary frames are customized by the oil painting frame manufacturer, with precise size and shape, reliable nodes, effectively reducing the difficulty of on-site processing, saving time, and controllable cost.
遮阳扇片的制作也得益于工业化材料的应用，每片遮阳扇由主副框组成，副框用镂空藤片包裹后固定在主框上。主副框在油画框厂家定制完成，尺寸形状精确，节点可靠，有效降低了现场加工的难度，节省时间，且造价可控。

Node density and visual perception
The warm temperament conveyed by wood complements the natural atmosphere of the flower shop. We use small section short components to increase the number of nodes, hoping that pedestrians can fully perceive the texture and granularity of the components at close range, enhance visual retention, and more vividly convey a warm and relaxed atmosphere.. The end nodes are connected, and the overlapping members protrude layer by layer, embodying the unique charm of traditional Chinese wooden construction.
节点密度与视觉感受
木质传递的温暖气质与花植店的自然气息相得益彰，我们选用小断面短构件来增加节点数量，希望行人能够在近距离内充分感知构件的质感和颗粒度，加强视觉滞留，更生动地传递温暖松弛的氛围。端部节点连接，交叠的杆件层层出挑，蕴含着中国传统木构造的独特意趣。

笠檐完工后，得到周围居民的喜欢和认可，吸引不少行人停留、拍照，为巷道空间增添了活力，一定程度上改善了巷道原本的环境品质。

This is a spontaneous attempt to update the street and alley interface, as well as a positive and beneficial transformation and utilization of urban micro public spaces. At the same time, we also hope to provide a professional demonstration for some self updating construction activities by using industrial materials for handmade production.
这是一次自发的街巷界面更新的尝试，也是一次对城市微型公共空间的积极有益的改造利用。同时，我们也希望通过这样一种使用工业材料进行手工制作的方式，为一些自主更新的建造活动带来一定的专业示范作用。
