该项目于2025年春季完工,是对多伦多历史性的糖果工厂公寓(Candy Factory Lofts)内一处住宅空间的改造。设计将建于1907年的糖果厂重新诠释为一座当代居所,其形态由工业、文化与空间记忆的多重层次塑造而成。该建筑位于多伦多市中心,历经多重身份演变:最初为纺织厂,后成为劳工运动场所,至1990年代则成为本市最早的大规模适应性再利用项目之一,助力住宅功能重返城市核心区。在这一工业叙事之下,还蕴藏着更久远的地景脉络——即原住民贸易通道‘搬运之路’(Carrying Place),曾由温达特人(Wendat)、塞内卡人(Seneca)及克雷迪特河密西沙加人(Mississaugas of the Credit)使用,其存在持续影响着这片土地。业主需求明确:打造一处高度高效、储物丰富、同时保留原有阁楼开放格局与空间特质,并契合当代生活方式的住宅。
Delivered in Spring 2025, this residential renovation within Toronto's historic Candy Factory Lofts reinterprets a 1907 confectionery plant as a contemporary home shaped by layers of industrial, cultural, and spatial memory. Located in downtown Toronto , the building has served multiple lives: first as a textile mill, later as a site of labor activism, and, in the 1990s, as one of the city's earliest large-scale adaptive-reuse projects, helping reintroduce residential life to the urban core. Beneath this industrial narrative lies an older geography: the Carrying Place, an Indigenous trade route used by the Wendat, Seneca, and Mississaugas of the Credit, whose presence continues to inform the land. The client brief called for a highly efficient, storage-rich home that preserved the openness and character of the original loft while supporting contemporary patterns of living.
