曾经狭窄破败的车库和小居室，如今变成华丽丽的家——多亏了那些节省空间的创意小把戏。
It’s hard to believe that, not long ago, this light, bright house was a couple of dank, interconnected bedsits spread across two floors; before that, it was a garage. But now it’s a glorious living space in the heart of Camden.
很难相信，这敞亮的房子不久前还是隔层的一系列内部相连的小房间，又潮又冷；在那之前，还只是个车库。但如今，这是位于卡姆登中心的一个华丽丽的居住空间。

Owner Darren Isaacs and Knott Architects have made use of every inch of space: cupboards in the eaves, pots and pans suspended from beams, cleverly zoned areas, and appliances shielded from view so they don’t encroach on the space. Suddenly, 85 square feet of space feels a lot bigger.
这间房子的主人Darren Isaacs和Knott 建筑师利用了这个空间的每一寸角落：屋檐里的储藏室，挂在房梁上的锅和壶，合理分配的区块，以及为了避免浪费空间而与视线隔开的办公设备。这么一来，85平方英尺的房间顿时显得更宽敞了。

The hallway has slim-line shoe storage by Vitsoe fitted near the front door. A staircase is made from a single ribbon of cold, rolled steel, left to develop a patina of rust before it was sealed; logs for the fire are stored underneath. The calf-skin LCW chair is by Charles and Ray Eames, and Isaacs found the typographical tramlines poster in his native Australia (in the UK try Pedlars).
在前门附近的门厅正巧能放下细长的由Vitsoe公司设计的鞋柜。楼梯是用一捆冷轧钢做的，在密封前已经生锈了；烧火的木柴就储存在楼梯的下面。LCW小牛皮椅是 Charles & Ray Eames 设计师设计的，还有文字设计的有轨电车路线的海报是Issaacs 在他的家乡澳大利亚找到的（在英国可以试试Pedlars）。

The upper floor is an open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. Kitchen cupboards and bookshelves, reached via a bespoke ladder, are built into the pitched roof to maximise space. (Cabinetmakers Jack Trench made the units and ladder.) Isaacs found the factory pendants at Retrouvius. The floors are engineered oak boards, designed not to warp with the underfloor heating, and in front of the windows a sunken trench heating system eliminates condensation and saves wall space. On one wall, white cabinets, lined in walnut, house the TV and crockery.
上面这层是开敞式平面设计的起居室，餐厅以及厨房。厨房的橱柜和书架一直延展到斜屋顶，书架要通过订做的梯子才能够着，这样做是为了将空间最大化。（家具师Jack Trench制作的组合家具和梯子。）Issacs在Retrouvius找了一些工厂吊饰。地板是铺的橡木板，这样设计是为了防止地暖引起的木板变形，另外，在窗前的凹槽供暖系统可以有助于消除结露，并且省下了墙的空间。在另一面墙上，白色的贮藏柜，里面并排放着核桃木，上面放着电视机和一些陶器。

Downstairs, the bedroom has an ensuite, concrete-rendered wetroom with frosted-glass screens, and a large wardrobe on casters that acts as a dividing wall.
楼下，卧室有个套间，水泥石膏墙面的浴室，装了一扇磨砂玻璃，大大的带轮脚衣柜也可以起到隔墙的作用。

A small office next door overlooks the street, and doubles as a guest bedroom.
旁边的一间小办公室可以俯瞰街道，也可以作为客房使用。

The cobbled street view, with its first floor Juliet balcony: pre-facelift, the house was once a dilapidated garage, and miserable bedsits.
石子路街景，二楼的朱丽叶阳台：改建之前，这个房子曾是一间破烂的车库和几间挺杯具的小居室。
