OAD 欧安地建筑设计

创始人

Jilu originated from Ji Lu residence, which was included in the '18th List of Historic Buildings in Chengdu' in 2020. Wang Kejun, a famous anti-Japanese general, who was one of the few generals participated in all battles of the third war zone, once lived here. The original meaning of Ji Lu is 'reserving aspiration and the future in one house', and now it is extended to 'containing delicious and tasty food in one pot'.

老宅经历过从住宅到住宅，再到小吃店、串串店、烧烤店、火锅店的身份变换。历届租客并不在意这座老宅的价值和历史，只是贪图旁边社区和学生所带来的微薄效益，也不在意老宅的维护，以至于在店主接手时宅子内部已经破败不堪，一片狼藉。老宅年久失修，但精致的门头却掩盖不掉往日的峥嵘，与周边的小层楼各自独处着。

The old mansion has undergone a change of identity from residence to residence, then to snack bar, chuanchuan restaurant, barbecue restaurant, and hot pot restaurant. The previous tenants didn’t care about the value and history of this old house, they were just attracted by the meager benefits brought by the nearby community and students. With poor maintenance, the inside of the house was already dilapidated when the owner took over. The old mansion had been in disrepair for years, but the exquisite lintel could not conceal its magnificence in old time, and it stood alone with the surrounding small buildings.

老宅改造面临着社会与现实的双重挑战。OAD将场地自身的逻辑与当代的设计思维进行了融合，最终延续了 “地域文化新体验”的设计理念，打造了一个既有成都文化底色又兼具社交体验的生活场域，让一座百年老宅在快被埋藏进岁月深处的时候，再次有了人间烟火气。

We kept the beam and column structure of the main building as much as possible, and repaired the lintel to reproduce the form characteristics of the private residence’s gate from the period of the Republic of China. The old walls of the building are made of thick bamboo weaving and plaster, while the new walls are reinforced with black bricks and gray tiles, adding a sense of historical heaviness and new construction’s contemporariness.

院内青苔满地，露天小景，室内保留了原空间高度，并在空间格局上做了新的划分，将当年的私人生活起居空间分隔成几间开合灵活的餐厅体验空间。内含天井、后厨、杂物间、卫生间、大堂、包间、咖啡厅等。

The courtyard is covered with moss and holds outdoor micro landscape, while the interior retains the original height of the space, and made a new division in spatial pattern, dividing the old private living space into several flexibly connected dining experience spaces. It contains patio, back kitchen, utility room, washroom, lobby, private room, coffee shop, etc.

Material Application.

The roofs of single-storey houses in Chengdu’s old town are mostly wooden structures covered by gray tiles, which leak rain all year round and hold dust. Considering that this condition is no longer suitable for the lives of contemporary people, and cannot be used as a restaurant, we replaced the shabby solid wood cushion with moisture-proof and rain-proof asphalt felt, which ensured the robustness and observability of the building in various environments. From the perspective of the sustainability and locality of the project, traditional natural and local materials, as well as old objects are also used in the design. Both the old Phoebe zhennan and the recycled materials are presented in the decorative partition system and the bathroom with contemporary techniques. The beam-pillar cypress structure of the main building also reveals the original simple texture under the polishing of the craftsman, and once again becomes the focus in each space.

The dining table and chairs were handmade by local craftsmen in accordance with the design drawings, which are inspired by the shape of the dining chair in the 70’s in China. Some old objects reused can be seen everywhere in the interior, becoming embellishment of the space, and connecting the stories of the times. The designer hopes to awaken people's memories, and the guests will become new witnesses to this old house and this pot of taste.

Conclusion.

Advocating lifestyle with a youthful attitude, Jilu is a relaxing place in a complex city, and what we are more eager for is the revival of more old lanes.
