傳動組公寓是南非約翰內斯堡的一座住宅樓。該項目坐落在剛剛經歷了城市復興與改造的馬博能區，這座住宅樓是對后種族隔離時期一代人愿望的回應——通過新的城市生活模式，讓人們重新搬回市中心居住。

為了契合三角形狀的地形，該建筑被設想成一塊廣告牌——兩棟獨立的住宅樓在狹窄的東端鉸接而成，形成了開放式內部庭院的社交空間。就如廣告牌一般，筆直的大樓外立面與基地線齊平，而內部庭院一側的立面則由樓梯、電梯井和連接各層的橋梁，以及每間單元外的開放式室外走廊相連。

模塊化的建筑物由140個升級再造的海運集裝箱組成。特意按顏色挑選的集裝箱無需再上漆，同時也決定了建筑的最終顏色。這些集裝箱在現場被切割疊放，拼成一個個單元。大型的對角切口（從集裝箱的一角至長邊中心沿對角線切割）變成了街道與庭院兩側單元的大開窗。這種手法的重復與鏡像運用形成了建筑的立面圖案。

大樓底層沿艾伯蒂娜·西蘇魯路的一側被用于零售空間，其背面則作為住宅空間，而住戶的私人庭院里設有種植區域與游泳池。上面6層均為住宅公寓，所有開放式一室公寓的面積在27.9m2～55.8m2不等。這些公寓均擁有沿庭院面朝走廊的室外空間。

該建筑的社會含義和議題與其周邊新興的城市社區相一致，在城市的振興、再活化和重塑中發揮著積極的作用。□

Drivelines Studios is a residential building in Johannesburg, South Africa. Located in Maboneng, an area of recent urban transformation and renewal, it responds to the post-apartheid generation's desire to repopulate the city's downtown through new models of urban living.

Embracing the triangular geometry of the site, the building is conceived as a billboard where two separate volumes of residential units are hinged at the narrow east end of the lot, framing the social space of the open interior courtyard. As in a billboard, the building outer fa?ades are straight and flush with the lot line while the fa?ades in the inner courtyard are articulated by the staircases, the elevator tower and the bridges connecting all levels, and by the open circulation paths activated by the units spillover outside.

The building is modular and made of 140 upcycled shipping containers. Containers have been selected by colours to be left unpainted, with availability dictating the ultimate building colour. They were stacked and cut on site, and combined to form the units. A large diagonal cut-out, from the corner to the centre of each container long side, generates the large windows for the units on street and courtyard sides. Its repetition and mirroring generate the building fa?ade pattern.

The ground level is occupied by residential at the rear, retail along the Albertina Sisulu Road, and the private courtyard for the residents with planted areas and a pool. The 6 levels above are occupied by the residential units, all open plan studios varying in size between 27.9m2and 55.8m2. All units include an outdoor space along the courtyard facing walkways.

The building's social intention and agenda is in line with the emerging urban community of its surrounding neighbourhood, taking an active role in the revitaliasation, reactivation and reimagining of the city downtown.□
