Appreciation towards MASSLAB for providing the following description:

曾经作为民事法庭使用的空间，如今被重新定义为宜居之所。这座原本带有制度化特征的建筑经过改造，被转化为16个长期居住的住宅单元，通过“批判性再利用”与“建筑剪辑”的方式，将原本严肃僵硬的公共空间转化为具有亲密感与生活气息的居住场所。这一改造并非试图抹去其历史，而是将过去视为空间材料，通过记忆、几何与居住行为的介入，赋予其新的生命。

What was once a civil courtroom now unfolds as a place to dwell. The former institutional structure has been reconfigured into 16 long-stay residential units, transforming civic rigidity into domestic spatiality through a position of critical reuse and architectural editing. Rather than erase its past, the intervention reframes it — not as a relic, but as spatial material shaped by memory, geometry, and inhabitation.

室内布局借鉴了20世纪初资产阶级住宅的空间组织方式——房间依次展开，无需走廊。这种串联式的逻辑被应用于新的公寓中，使动线在空间转换中自然流动，而非依赖直线连接。穹顶天花贯穿各个房间，尺度与几何因功能而异，营造出一种安静的空间层级感，使日常生活在建筑中获得某种“仪式性”的表达。

The internal layout draws inspiration from early 20th-century bourgeois homes, where rooms unfolded in sequence, without corridors. This distributive logic informs the new apartments, in which circulation emerges through spatial transition rather than direct path. Vaulted ceilings punctuate each room, varying in scale and geometry depending on function, introducing a silent hierarchy that renders everyday domesticity into a spatially ceremonial register.

在外部设计中，改造体现出双重策略：面向主街的立面被克制而尊重地修复，保留了原有石材结构，并以蓝色陶瓷瓷砖作为点缀，低调地呼应其历史身份；而原本破碎、堆叠着技术设施的后立面则被重新构建，一层几何结构的“第二外皮”扩展了建筑体量，同时向庭院与泳池方向延展出阳台。这一新增结构呼应了室内的形式语言，在体量、空隙与节奏之间实现统一。

Externally, the intervention articulates dual gestures. The main street-facing façade is restored with composure, respecting its original stonework and introducing new blue ceramic tiling as a subtle reference to its historical identity. The rear elevation (once fragmented and technically overloaded) is reimagined through a second skin: a geometric structure that expands the envelope and projects balconies overlooking the courtyard and pool. This addition echoes the formal vocabulary of the interiors, unifying mass, void, and rhythm.

Catarina公寓是对既有或废弃空间进行重新激活的一个范例，展现了建筑智慧在当代背景下的适应性再利用实践。在住房问题日益突出的当下，这类项目探索了如何在不依赖怀旧情绪的前提下，从现有建筑中培育出新的居住形态，同时兼顾文化深度与空间品质。

As an example of how architectural intelligence can reclaim built or obsolete volumes, Vila Catarina is a prototype of adaptive reuse. In a context where the housing question grows increasingly urgent, projects like this explore how domestic space can emerge from what already exists into contemporary programs, without nostalgia, but with cultural and spatial care.
