Yatofu Creatives(也兜设计)将位于上海市中心的一座花园公寓改造为一个充满定制艺术品与定制家具的城市栖居之所。公寓藏身于上海最具历史痕迹的街区之一，拥有 180 平方米的室内空间和约 150 平方米的私人花园。秉承客户对独特定制的珍视，Yatofu操刀打造了一个如画廊般使人感觉温暖亲和的住宅空间，与艺术家和匠人们合作的一系列艺术品与家具灯具自然微妙的融入在空间当中。 为了设计一个精致、静谧平和的家，Yatofu首先通过削减繁杂的建筑细节以构建简约的设计语言，并选择具有纹理和触感的一系列材料，创造出如中性画布般的空间。柔软的米色微水泥覆盖于空间立面与天花，而实心胡桃木墙板和木门则增添了一层温暖。 公寓的少见的特点之一是拥有一座大型私人花园。设计改造后，花园与室内栖居空间无阻碍连接，将柔和温暖的光线和徐徐微风引入室内。花园的设计同样凝练简约，与周围饱和的城市密度形成鲜明对比，如一片闹中取静的绿洲。 起居与用餐空间大胆的采用手工铺设水磨石地板，嵌入回收再加工的蓝色与中性色石材。在餐桌后方，一面巨大的巴西淡蓝色大理石墙面成为中性空间中明亮清新的焦点。起居室通过一系列弧线的沙发和扶手椅的搭配，营造出舒适氛围。花园画廊之家里的许多家具与艺术品，包括起居室中心的枝桠形吊灯、走廊雕塑感金属圆镜等，均为此居所定制设计。与纽约陶瓷艺术家Joseph Algieri 合作，手工打造的定制陶瓷器皿系列也专为此空间设计制作； 而起居室墙面的巨型打印艺术品是与芬兰造型师 Piia Emilia 和摄影师 Aleksi Tikkala 合作创造。 在卧室空间中，实心胡桃木半高墙板包裹着整个空间，同时墙面展示着与台湾艺术家/木作匠人Moofoo合作的墙面艺术品。主卧室卫浴里，一座如雕塑般、由整块大理石雕刻而成的浴缸安静的置于空间之中。改造后的两间卧室均连结着花园，使得这个隐藏于闹市中的栖居之所在上海这座高度密集的城市中更难得一见。 Yatofu针对花园画廊之家进行的微妙而细致的设计改造，探索了独特的艺术品和家具工艺品自然融入生活的可能性，更通过从室内设计到家具设计的不同尺度，彰显对手工艺与艺术表达的热忱。
Yatofu Creatives has transformed a rare garden apartment in downtown Shanghai into an urban refuge filled with custom artwork and furnishings. The apartment itself is located in a well sought-after luxury building and features 180 square meters of interior space and a private garden of around 150 square meters. In adhering to the client’s preference for all things bespoke, Yatofu set out to create a warm yet gallery-like space, showcasing a collection of art pieces and furnishings created in collaboration with artists and artisans, made specifically for the residence, and filling the interior with artful expression. To design a sophisticated yet calm and inviting space, Yatofu Creatives first created a neutral canvas by paring back elaborated architectural details in favor of minimalistic form language, and selecting surface materials that were textured and tactile. The walls and ceilings are covered in a soft cream-colored micro cement, while solid walnut paneling and doors add a layer of warmth to the space. A main and rare feature of the apartment is the large private garden that opens up into the interior space through numerous custom doors, casting a soft and warm light into the interior. The garden is contemporary and minimalistic, and serves as a breath of airy contrast to the saturated city surrounding the residence. The main living and dining space features a bold hand-laid oversized terrazzo flooring with stones of varying neutrals and blues. Behind the dining table, a monumental display wall in Brazilian pinta verde blue marble creates a bright and fresh focal point for the otherwise neutral space. The living area is furnished with a range of sofas and armchairs to create an informal sitting area. Many of the fixtures and pieces in the main room, including the hanging lamp above the coffee table and the large asymmetrical mirror, were all uniquely designed and made as one-off pieces for the apartment. A collection of bespoke stone and ceramic vessels were also designed specifically for the space, produced in collaboration with New York-based ceramic artist, Joseph Algieri; while the oversized photography print that hangs on the living room wall was made in collaboration with the Finnish stylist Piia Emilia and Photographer Aleksi Tikkala. The two bedrooms feature solid walnut wainscoting and bespoke wall-art created in collaboration with Moofoo, a Taiwan-based artist/carpenter. In the master bedroom’s ensuite bathroom, a sculptural monolithic bathtub sits in the corner, carved out of a single piece of marble. Both bedrooms lead directly into the large private garden, a true rare commodity in a city like Shanghai. Yatofu’s transformation of the apartment is an ode to the art of living and echoes the client’s appreciating of custom and bespoke creations. The subtle yet sophisticated foundation of the interior itself offers endless possibilities for site-specific artworks and unique furnishings, celebrating both craftmanship and the expression of individuality.
