架构师提供的文本描述。简单地说，就是把这座位于主干道上的维多利亚式砖房改造成一座宁静的家庭住宅，能够在未来的许多年里适应居住者的生活方式。原家的特色将尽可能保留，但挑战是引入丰富的自然光，并创造一个全年良好的适宜居住环境。

Text description provided by the architects. The brief was to transform this brick Victorian home, situated on a main road, into a tranquil family residence capable of accommodating the lifestyle of the occupants for many years to come. The features of the original home were to be retained wherever possible, however the challenge was to introduce an abundance of natural light, and create a more livable environment that performed well thermally year round.

通过利用前厅的功能布局和大比例的前厅、卧室、书房/书房和浴室的完美空间，只需花很少的费用就可以解决一半的问题，这有助于使项目在有限的预算范围内走上正轨。加上加水加热，精心放置的天窗和一个小的，隐蔽的，套间弹出主卧室完成了原来的房子的内部改造。在房子的后面是一系列倾斜的增加，导致一个黑暗和不连贯的布局。

By utilising the functional layout and large proportions of the front rooms, spaces that were perfect for bedrooms, a study / den and bathroom, there was minimal cost to resolve half of the brief which helped to keep the project on track with a limited budget. The addition of hydronic heating, carefully placed skylights and a small, concealed, ensuite pop-out for the main bedroom completed the internal transformation of the original house. At the rear of the house was a series of lean to additions, resulting in a dark and disjointed layout.

简要的是打开后面的创建明亮的、开放的计划的生活空间，每天都有充足的存储和实用区域。早在那时候，车库就会破坏维多利亚式立面的完整性，所以内部存储和从车道上轻松进入是必不可少的。设计的反应是创造一个第二，明显现代的进入车道，进入一个大的泥室，每个家庭成员、洗衣房和葡萄酒商店都有储存柜。该空间通向主生活区、厨房、餐饮和半开放式研究Nook，直接关闭休息区。这个地方有年幼的孩子，是很容易获得的玩具储存的理想场所，在以后的几年里是一个有监督的研究区。由于父母双方经常在家工作，有两个年幼的孩子，翻新和扩建必须是切实可行的，并且随着时间的推移而经得起时间的考验。

The brief was to open up the rear creating a bright, open plan living space, with ample storage and utility areas for day to day convenience. It was determined early on that a garage would compromise the integrity of the Victorian facade so internal storage and easy access from the driveway was essential. The design response was to create a second, distinctly modern entry off the driveway leading straight into a large mud room with storage lockers for each family member, laundry and wine store. This space leads to the main living area, kitchen, dining and semi-open study nook directly off the lounge area. Having young children, this place is ideal for easily accessible toy storage and in later years a supervised study zone. With both parents working from home regularly and two young children, the renovation and extension had to be practical and stand the test of time as they grew up.

客户希望新的添加与原来的家庭有很强的联系他们爱上了他们，同时建立了一个与花园和新池直接相连的生活区关于重要性的早期讨论导致再生红砖、黑钢框架窗、黑黑对接和黑色金属装饰的组合现代但可持续的材料;坚实和永恒就像原来的家维多利亚式的立面被渲染，并绘制了一个暗淡的奶油，因此决定将渲染和油漆剥离，以显示后面的砖原来红砖的状况很好，把立面改造成了原来的荣耀，同时在新的红砖与原来的家之间建立了鲜明的联系。

 The clients wanted the new addition to have a strong connection to the original home they fell in love with, while establishing a living zone directly linked to the garden and new pool. Early discussions about materiality lead to a combination of recycled red brick, black steel framed windows, blackened blackbutt and black metal trims. Contemporary yet sustainable materials; solid and everlasting just like the original home. The Victorian facade had been rendered and painted a dull cream, so it was decided to strip back the render and paint to reveal the bricks behind. The original red bricks were in excellent condition and completely transformed the facade into its former glory, while establishing a distinct connection between the new red brick contemporary addition and the original home.

揭幕原来的房子的红砖是一个突出的时刻，在建设阶段，因为我们都可以看到，它突然聚集在一起，作为一个有凝聚力的设计。在内部，我们希望创造温暖和柔软，以对比坚韧的外部材料调色板，并建立一个无缝的新旧过渡。内部钢框架门标志着过渡门槛，这是进一步提高了地板漆的变化，从木材到水热，混凝土板。柔和的蓝色和对比深蓝色/灰色的色调与轻薄的木材细木工事结合在一起，创造出一种室内色彩调色板，从繁忙的日常生活和繁忙的主干道中散发出一种平静和宁静的感觉。

This unveiling of the original house's red bricks was a stand out moment during the construction phase as we could all see it suddenly coming together as one cohesive design. Internally, we wanted to create warmth and softness to contrast the hardy exterior material palette and establish a seamless transition between the old and new. Internal steel framed doors mark the transition threshold which is further enhanced with a floor finish change from timber to a hydronic heated, concrete slab. Soft blue and contrasting dark blue/grey tones were teamed up with light timber joinery to create an interior colour palette that emanated a sense of calm and tranquility from the hustle and bustle of daily life, and the busy main road location.
