位于伦敦东部Hoxton的家庭博物馆于2018年6月12日重新向公众开放，此前建筑师Wright & Wright进行了预算1810万英镑的重建。该项目振兴了有300年历史的救济院和花园的综合体，将历史建筑与现代元素整合在一起，创造了一个可持续的、有吸引力的公共空间。
The Museum of the Home in Hoxton, East London will reopen to the public 12 June, following an £18.1 million capital redevelopment by architects Wright & Wright. The project revitalises an assemblage of 300-year old almshouses and gardens, consolidating the historic building with contemporary elements to create a sustainable and engaging public space.
Wright & Wright事务所改造创造了80%的展览空间，50%的公共空间，并弥补了建筑的退化，为未来几十年保留了宝贵的地方和国家遗产资产。它还引入了一个新的入口，直接面对霍克斯顿车站，增加了两个新的花园亭子和一个面向街道的咖啡馆，并改善了公共通道，同时没有增加建筑的整体能源需求。
Wright & Wright’s remodelling creates 80% more exhibition space, 50% more public space and remedies the building’s deterioration, preserving a valuable local and national heritage asset for decades to come. It also introduces a new entrance directly opposite Hoxton Station, adds two new garden pavilions together with a street-facing cafe, and improves public access, with no increase in the building’s overall energy requirements.
在主救济院内，Wright & Wright事务所挖掘并重新建立了入口层，形成了新的家庭画廊，并恢复了第二层，创造了一个宽敞的新的收藏图书馆和学习室。博物馆的结构围绕着一个重新设计的接待空间，而重新配置的流线，具有灵活的入口和出口点，使游客能够浏览和塑造自己的博物馆体验。
Within the main almshouse, Wright & Wright excavated and re-established the lower ground floor to form the new Home Galleries and reinstated the first floors to create a spacious new Collections Library and Study Room. The Museum is structured around a redesigned reception space, while a reconfigured circulation route, with flexible entry and exit points, enables visitors to navigate and shape their own Museum experience.
花园的两侧是两个新的亭子，为博物馆的教育和其他活动项目提供了宝贵的社区空间。其中一个亭子上种植的绿色屋顶提高了生物多样性，并承认博物馆的花园是周围地区为数不多的公共绿色空间之一。
Flanking the gardens are two new pavilions providing valuable community space for the Museum’s programme of education and other activities. The green roof planted on one of the pavilions enhances biodiversity and acknowledges the Museum’s gardens as being one of the few public green spaces in the surrounding area.
在使博物馆的内部空间更容易接近的同时，设计师也使其在街道上的存在更加明显和受欢迎，侵蚀了博物馆和公共领域之间的障碍。霍克斯顿车站对面的一个新的入口，通过一系列雕塑般的坡道和植物框架的台阶来吸引游客，为人们创造一个飞地来会面和坐下。同样，相邻的、以前多余的维多利亚时代的公共房屋已被改造成一个咖啡馆，为博物馆提供了一个额外的入口点。
In making the Museum’s interiors more accessible, Wright & Wright has also made its street presence more visible and welcoming, eroding the barrier between museum and public realm. A new entrance opposite Hoxton Station entices visitors through a series of sculptural ramps and steps framed by plants, creating an enclave for people to meet and sit. Similarly, the adjacent and previously redundant Victorian-era public house has been transformed into a cafe, providing an additional entry point to the Museum.
新旧建筑综合反映了一种重新规划的策展方法，旨在通过解决当代家庭问题，如无家可归和波动的家庭结构，使博物馆对更多的观众更具吸引力。它实现了博物馆更新的身份，旨在展示对家的概念及其在社会中的共鸣的更细致的理解。
Wright & Wright’s architectural synthesis of new and old reflects a reframed curatorial approach intended to make the Museum more appealing to a wider audience by addressing contemporary domestic issues such as homelessness and fluctuating family structures. It actualises the Museum’s refreshed identity which aims to present a more nuanced understanding of the idea of home and its resonance in society.
