福州这座拥有7000多年历史文化积淀和2200多年的建城史的古城，从宋代开始，就成为重要港口城市。“共和壹号”位于老仓山桥南环岛十字路口，连接烟台山、泛船浦和会展中心，是“烟台山—泛船浦”历史文脉的重要一环。其前身是福州第一茶厂春记茶行，在民国时期曾作为福州海上丝绸之路的重要源头港口和闽茶外贸的交易集散地，同时孙中山等同盟会创始革命家曾在这里短暂工作生活过。本次由华荣集团融旧修新，以建筑致敬历史，还复文物古韵光华，促使本案得以与众人会面。穿过逼仄的走廊，映入眼帘的是墨绿的沙发和年代久远的老凳子，婉约的氛围、色彩的碰撞，空气中弥散着欲说还休的暧昧，像极了《花样年华》中呈现的经典场景，将人拉回上个世纪黄金时代。往里走，民国时期的老家具和裹挟时代印记的琉璃灯罩，兼具实用性和复古的调性，搭配精心甄选的色彩鲜明的软装陈设，每一个转场、定格都是一幅精心构思的画卷。在漫长的时间长河里，共和壹号安安静静地伫立在老仓山，历经风雨飘零，即便如此，它仍以独有的形式见证一个城市的变迁和发展，像是文明的记录者和传承者，既见证了黄金时代十里洋场的风光，后经过开发、修缮，也将与新时代再创辉煌。接到案子后，我们进行实地考察，看着破败的原“省外贸仓库”，心怀澎湃的同时，始终对它保持敬畏之心。因此在构思本案时，尊古成为很重要的脉络。在保留原有屋檐和外形特征的基础上，将内部重组，打造一个时间与空间、功能与内涵并存，当代与传统有序连接的场所。由于建筑本身是双人字屋顶结构，不同切面的层高呈规律变化，根据人在内部活动的预设，我们将挑高充足部分预留给重要的功能体块，于是空间主要被划分为前、中、后三大区域，分别作为总裁办公和接待、私人展览、以及休闲娱乐用途；区块的连接处则分布着走廊、酒窖、KTV室、操作间、卫生间等功能服务区。
Fuzhou,an ancient city with over 7,000 years’ historical and cultural accumulation and more than 2,200 years of city-building history, has been an important port city since the Song Dynasty. Located at the crossroads of the Qiaonan Roundabout of the Laocangshan, "Republic No. 1" connects Yantai Mountain, Fanchuanpu and the Exhibition Center, being regarded as an essential part in the historical context of "Yantai Mountain - Fanchuanpu". Its predecessor was Chunji Tea Shop, the first tea factory in Fuzhou. In the period of the Republic of China, it served as a major source port of Fuzhou Maritime Silk Road and a trading center for foreign trade of Fujian tea.This time, Huarong Group merged the old and repaired the new, paying tribute to the history with architecture, and restoring the ancient charm of cultural relics, bringing the project to light again. Passing through the narrow corridor, the dark green sofa and the old stool come into view. In the graceful atmosphere, the collision of colors, the air is filled with unspoken ambiguity. It is very much like the classic scene presented in "In the Mood for Love", pulling people back to the golden age of the last century. Going inside, the old furniture of the Republic of China and the glazed lampshade with the imprint of the times have both practicality and retro tone. With selected brightly-colored soft furnishings, every transition and frame is a well-conceived picture there. For a long time, Republic No.1 stood quietly in Laocang Mountain, withstanding wind and rain. Even so, it still witnesses the changes and development of a city in a unique form. Like the recorder and inheritor of civilization, it has not only witnessed the scenery of a metropolis infested with foreign adventures in the golden age, but after development and repair, it will also create brilliance in the new era. After undertaking the project, we conducted a field trip. Seeing the dilapidated original "Provincial Foreign Trade Warehouse". While being full of enthusiasm, we have also been in awe of it. Therefore, when conceiving this project, respecting the past has been an essential context. On the basis of retaining the original eaves and appearance features, we reorganized the interior to create a place where time and space, function and connotation coexist, and contemporary and traditional are connected in an orderly manner. Since the building itself is in a double-herringbone roof structure, the story heights of different sections change regularly. According to the preset of people's activities in the interior space, we reserve a high enough part for important functional blocks. Therefore, the space is divided into three areas: front, middle and back, which are used for the president's office and reception, private exhibitions, and leisure and entertainment purposes respectively. At the connection of the blocks, there are corridors, wine cellars, KTV rooms, operation rooms, toilets, and other functional service areas.
