25주년 맞은 경친화 사라 위글스 워스 건축


2019년, 건축가 사라 위글스워스(1958년생)는 SWA25라는 제목의 일련의 큐레이션된 행사로 25주년을 맞는다. 


일년 내내 그들은 지금까지 진행되어 온 그 진보적인 작품과 미래를 내다보는 계획을 보여준다. SWA는 지속 가능한 지역사회를 위한 디자인을 전문으로 하는 선구적이고 수상 경력이 있는 건축실무로 1994년 창사 이래 환경친화적인 건축을 만드는 것이 무엇을 의미하는지 탐구해 왔다.




SWA25 행사는 과거 프로젝트를 기념하며 돌아보기 위함이다


성취하고 배운 것들을 반성하고, 건축 환경에 직면하는 현재의 문제들을 토론하고, 건축가에 영향을 미치는 그 실천적 미래 방향을 탐구한다.


*스톡 오차드 스트리트 Stock Orchard Street

기차로 런던 북쪽에서 킹스 크로스 역으로 가다보면, 단번에 시선을 붙잡는 건축물이 하나 있다. 바로 사라 위글스워스(1958년생)의 설계로 지어진 스톡 오차드 스트리트이다. 철로 트랙 바로 옆에 세워진 이 놀라운 건축물은 위글스워스의 주택 겸 스튜디오이다. 건축가의 친환경 의식이 반영된 것으로, RIBA 친환경주택 어워드를 수상하기도 했다. 네이버 지식백과

The events of SWA25 take stock of and celebrate past projects, reflecting on what has been achieved and learned, debate current issues facing the built environment as they impact on architects, and explore the future direction of the practice.

The SWA25 events include an artist residency, an exhibition and a roundtable discussion on education. To tie in with the London Festival of Architecture in June, SWA will also host a charity cycle tour around a number of its projects from East London to Kingston and will be hosting an Open Studio in place of its regular building tours. The events aim to promote issues dear to the practice, in particular, the collaboration and support for emerging artists and practitioners.

This leading London-based practice has spent the past two and a half decades creating peoplecentred places that are joyful, inventive and resourceful. Its portfolio includes urban regeneration, cultural buildings, offices, private and social housing and structures for sport and education. SWA’s design strategies emphasise user-centred placemaking and close stakeholder engagement to celebrate everyday life through local heritage identity and ecology. At Siobhan Davies Dance Studios, a working bond between Sarah and Siobhan Davies, resulted in a rich, evocative home for independent dance created out of a 19th Century school annex.

Imaginative, original thinking based on research and analysis has always been at the core of the work Sarah Wigglesworth and her team have undertaken. SWA has undertaken technical, environmental and social investigations as well as post-occupancy evaluations in order to learn from its work and disseminate findings. The best example of this is 9/10 Stock Orchard Street, which is the SWA HQ as well as Sarah’s home. Finished in 2001, it used passive design principles, creating a low-energy live/work environment that used straw bale to insulate the north elevations of the building. The entire design and construction of the building was well before its time, and based on the knowledge gained from 18 years of occupation. This year the buildings undergo extensive refurbishment and environmental upgrading.

“What turned out to be my first big research project was my home and our offices in Stock Orchard Street,” says Sarah Wigglesworth. “Every project we undertake is rooted in thoughtful research, focused on building for the people who will, ultimately, be using the spaces, be these schools, arts spaces or housing. What we have managed to achieve and continue to strive for, is the practical improvement and pleasure that a well-designed, responsive place can make to people’s everyday lives.”

Now a team of thirteen, SWA continues to build architecture that is innovative in design and employs new aesthetic strategies for sustainable building. A prime example of the practice’s collaborative approach is award-winning Mellor Primary School in Stockport. The low-energy building features a striking habitat wall created from salvaged materials that was designed and built in partnership with the pupils, parents and teachers. The practice has a globally recognised reputation for producing tactile and spatially rich environments. Working with materials in imaginative ways, SWA delivers buildings that are loved by their users, are simple to use and are economical to run and maintain.
