IF Architecture建筑事务所，澳大利亚 / IF Architecture

位于Collingwood的IF Architecture Studio不仅是一间办公空间，更像是一个设计想法的孵化器。这处多功能空间充分展现了事务所的实验性设计过程与核心理念。工作室将实际使用需求转化为设计契机，用以打磨既有想法、实现过去未能落地的概念，并通过鲜明的色彩、动态的形式以及富有创造力的空间划分，探索一种大胆而鲜明的设计视角。

 

In Collingwood, the IF Architecture Studio acts as an incubator for design ideas, a multifunctional space that expresses their experimental process and philosophies. The practical requirements of the studio are embraced as opportunities to refine existing ideas, realise previously unrealised concepts, and explore a bold point of view through vibrant colour, dynamic forms, and inventive spatial divisions.

在仅有100平方米的紧凑空间中，工作室通过灵活、多功能的元素维持整体开放感，同时塑造出彼此关联的功能区域，以最大化空间效率。不同于传统布局，正式会议区被设置于工作室中央。一道双面的帘幕在保留入口视线通透性的同时，实现了微妙的空间分隔。其浓烈而鲜艳的色彩灵感来源于经典电视节目《The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson》的舞台背景，一侧可作为演示屏幕使用，而另一侧也同样呈现出被精心设计的空间体验。

 

The studio maintains openness while shaping interconnected zones through adaptable, multipurpose elements to maximise functionality within its compact 100 sqm area. In a non-traditional layout, the formal meeting area sits at the centre of the studio. A double-sided curtain provides subtle division while preserving sightlines to the entrance. Its dramatic, brilliant hues are inspired by the iconic Tonight Show with Johnny Carson backdrop, functioning as a presentation screen on one side and creating an equally considered experience on the reverse.

厨房空间同样打破常规，通过独立体量实现若即若离的空间分隔，同时保持整体的开放性。垂直木质柜体与有机形态的镀锌钢构件形成鲜明对比，共同构成一个兼具多功能属性的台面，并作为第二会议区域使用。围绕操作台布置的是Iva为Grazia & Co设计的同名皮革吧凳，这一标志性单品也频繁出现在IF Architecture的住宅与酒店项目之中。

 

Similarly, the kitchen breaks from convention, using stand-alone volumes to provide subtle separation and maintaining openness. Sitting in direct contrast with one another, the vertical timber joinery meets up with the organic galvanised steel to form a multifunctional surface that doubles as a secondary meeting area. Surrounding the bench are Iva’s namesake leather stools designed for Grazia & Co, a signature piece used throughout IF Architecture’s residential and hospitality projects.

定制木质会议桌与厨房岛台均采用了“水滴形”策略。这一设计最初应用于Little Prince Dining Room项目，并在这里进一步优化，通过细微的形态引导使用方向。在会议空间中，这种布局确保每位使用者都朝向演示屏幕。

 

Both the custom timber conference table and the kitchen bench employ a teardrop shape strategy, originally developed for the Little Prince Dining Room and refined here to subtly orient use towards specific directions. In the conference room, this ensures that each person faces the presentation screen.

整个工作室被柔和的蓝色调包裹，并搭配大量镀锌钢元素，这种材料因其带有实用主义气质的熟悉感而备受青睐。许多细节均源于事务所与Baker Bleu长期合作中的持续探索，体现出IF Architecture对于不断精进的坚持。为了平衡工业感空间氛围，设计通过天然木材、软木柜体、黄铜细节以及鞣制皮革引入温暖质感。配饰的选择则呼应了帘幕中的鲜亮色彩，并转译为蓝色座椅、绿色吊灯以及粉色地毯等元素。

 

The entirety of the studio is drenched in soft blue hues, paired with multiple installations of galvanised steel, appreciated for its sense of utilitarian familiarity. Many of these details were developed through our ongoing collaboration with Baker Bleu, reflecting IF Architecture’s dedication to continual refinement. Offsetting the industrial tones, warmth emerges through natural timber, cork joinery, brass accents, and tanned leather. The selection of accessories picks up on the bright tones from the curtains, translating them into the blue chairs, green pendant, and pink rug.

 

▼工作区域，office zone

 

 

开放式办公区域由镀锌钢隔断与架高地面定义。隔断上的图形化圆形穿孔既提供了适度私密性，也维持了视觉联系。一侧的低角度书架陈列着曾发表于出版物中的项目资料；另一侧与桌面等高的展示架则摆放着设计过程中的特殊物件，包括模型原型、偏爱的材料样本，以及办公室常备的勒·柯布西耶著作《Polychromie》。

 

The open-plan workspaces are defined by a galvanised steel partition and raised flooring. Graphic circular perforations in the partition provide both privacy and visual connection. On one side, a low-angled shelf displays a curated library of projects featured in publications. Opposite, a desk-height shelf holds special items from the design process, including prototypes, favourite material samples, and the on-hand office copy of Le Corbusier’s book ‘Polychromie’.

软木柜体体量为空间引入了垂直性的视觉元素，同时提供了传统设计图纸展示与协作讨论的区域。其背后的灵活置物架系统允许团队测试材料方案、存放样品，并保持工作空间整洁有序。IF Architecture Studio营造出一种沉浸式环境，使客户能够深入感受IF的创意设计方法，并在此激发合作灵感，共同创造既大胆又富有创造力的空间。

 

The cork joinery volume introduces a vertical element to the studio, offering a space for traditional design pin-ups and collaborative review. Behind its panels, flexible shelving allows the team to test material schemes, store ones, and keep the workspace uncluttered. The IF Architecture Studio provides an immersive environment where clients can engage with IF’s creative design approach and be inspired to collaborate on producing spaces that are both bold and inventive.
