白色的Mashrabia风格的表皮覆盖了肯尼亚Mombasa的公寓，这些公寓由内罗毕的Urko Sanchez建筑师事务所设计，目的是为居民提供隐私保护功能，同时也让人们能够可以欣赏到海景。

White mashrabiya-style screens cover these apartments in Mombasa, Kenya, which Nairobi-based Urko Sanchez Architects designed to provide residents with privacy but also views out to sea.

Tudor公寓能够俯瞰海岸，建筑两侧分别为房屋开发场地和私人住宅区域，之后这片区域也许将要建造另一座公寓大楼。

Tudor Apartments is located on a site overlooking the coast and flanked by a housing development on one side and a private residence on the other that may later be turned into another apartment block.

内罗毕的Urko Sanchez建筑事务所希望建筑内部的11户住宅能够有足够的隐私性，但同时也能在热带气候中获得自然光线和通风。

Nairobi-based Urko Sanchez Architects wanted to ensure that the 11 residences inside would have plenty of privacy, while also receiving natural light and ventilation in the tropical climate.

为了实现这一目标，建筑师们设计了建筑表皮系统，这些表皮参照了传统的“Mashrabiyas ”的木屏风。建筑表皮上有各种装饰性的几何状小孔。

To achieve this, the architects designed screens referencing traditional latticed wood screens known as mashrabiyas. Mimicking this, the screen surrounding the block's walls are punctured with decorative geometric openings.

建筑表皮覆盖在白色的灰泥上，形成了住宅的主要结构，后方墙体被涂上了灰泥，采用当地的技术支撑着表皮系统，这些墙挡住了一些开口，而另一些则为窗户。

“多亏了工程团队，表皮才完全变成了结构系统。”Urko Sanchez建筑事务所负责人说，“对于肯尼亚来说，这是一件新奇的事情，因为当地和国际工程师，以及现场工作的钢铁工人的合作，在不使用任何技术的情况下手工操作，最终制成了完美的钢筋弯曲表皮结构。”

Covered in white plaster, the shell forms the main structure of the housing block, supporting the walls set behind, which are plastered and covered with a coral stone using a local technique. These walls block some of the openings, while others are filled by windows.
"The skin was rendered entirely structural thanks to the engineering team," said Urko Sanchez Architects. "A novelty to Kenya, such structural skin was possible thanks to local and international engineers working hand by hand, and to the steel workers on-site who managed, by dedication and care, flawless bar bending work without access to any technology."

这并不是Mashirabya第一次影响当代项目。其他的项目还有MK27工作室设计的圣保罗公寓和Guilherme Torres建筑事务所设计的圣保罗家庭住宅。

在Tudor公寓里，表皮覆盖着建筑的三个立面。阳台和各种出挑平台朝向北侧，并没有表皮覆盖，住户可以从这里看到附近的小溪。

This is not the first time that mashirabya have influenced contemporary projects. Others include a São Paulo apartment block by Studio MK27 and a São Paulo family house by architect Guilherme Torres.
In Tudor Apartments, the screens cover three sides of the building. Balconies and terraces are placed on the fourth side, which faces north and is left free of the screens to offer residents views of the nearby creek.

每层楼有两套公寓，分别朝向南北两侧。在北侧，巨大的玻璃门向露台开放，这也有助于室内外空气的对流。

Each floor is split into two apartments, running from the north side to the south. On the northern side, large glazed doors open onto the covered terraces, which also aid air flow from the sea.

除了这11户基本住宅，建筑师们还增加了三处住宅，通过朝向小溪的斜坡便可到达。这些公寓被称为“天井住宅”，其屋顶露台用水磨石覆盖着，并配有木制的藤架，为人们带来绿地空间。

In addition to these 11 homes, the architects added three residence to step down the site as it slopes towards the creek. Called Patio Houses, theses apartments feature roof terraces covered in terrazzo, and furnished with wooden pergolas that provide shade and greenery.

楼梯从一边向下延伸，人们可以通过这个楼梯到达每个房间以及斜坡底部的游泳池。

A staircase runs down one side to provide access to each one, as well as the swimming pool at the bottom of the slope.

住宅内石板地面与苍白的砌砖以及白色墙壁相互衬托。墙壁和地板的浅色调与深色木材门窗形成对比。

Inside the residences, stone flooring is paired with pale brickwork and white-painted walls. The plainness of the walls and floor is offset by a dark wood that forms the doors, and frames windows and small ventilation holes.
