架构师提供的文本描述。业主们希望建立一个新的独立住宅，其中纳入了历史性的地标区的DNA，以保存街道的经验，并作为他们的风格和个性的表现。柳条公园的住宅居住在其中，并与历史悠久的住宅共享其街道前，代表一些芝加哥最大和最好的例子维多利亚时代的建筑。这一里程碑式的命名，为附近的任何新建筑设置了规范性规则，激发了对传统材料和细节的重新解释。

Text description provided by the architects. The owners desired to create a new a standalone residence that incorporates DNA of the historic Landmark District to preserve the street experience and acts as an expression of their style and personality. The Wicker Park Residence resides among and shares its street front with historic homes that represent some of Chicago’s largest and best examples of Victorian-era architecture. The landmark designation, which placed prescriptive rules for any new construction in the neighborhood, inspired a reinterpretation of traditional materials and detailing.

一个正式的砖石立面被雕刻在后面，以揭示一个花园，玻璃正面，和一个当代的，充满光线的内部。新房子的砖石外壳停止了修复100年前的教练房子，只通过一个一层玻璃封闭连接。

A formal brick masonry façade is carved away at the rear to reveal a garden, glass facade, and a contemporary, light-filled interior. The masonry shell of the new house stops short of a rehabilitated100-year old coach house, connected only through a one-story glass enclosed link.

对传统的材料和细节进行了精练和重新解释。一种罗马风格的砖与芝加哥普通砖不同，而深色金属则形成门、窗和表示门窗的线条。一个带有圆形图案的装饰性金属檐，赞扬了围绕着前院的铸铁栅栏，这是一种有趣的触碰，让人想起了邻近房产上的传统围栏。

Traditional materials and detailing are refined and reinterpreted. A Roman-style brick differentiates itself from the Chicago Common brick while dark metal forms doors, windows, and expressed lintels. An ornamental metal cornice perforated with a circular motif compliments the cast iron fence that encloses the front yard, a playful touch that recalls the traditional fences on neighboring properties.

内部也是如此，在正式的前排(入口、就餐和生活)和一个非正式的后方(厨房和家庭室)后面，向后面的私人花园开放。中心服务核心包括一间化妆室、一楼管家的储藏室、二楼的洗衣房和机械空间，而两台大的磨坊则隐藏着通往二楼私人空间的楼梯。

The interior follows suit, divided behind the formal front (entry, dining, and living) and an informal rear (kitchen and family room) which open to the private garden in the back. A central service core contains a powder room, butler’s pantry and storage on the first floor, and laundry and mechanical spaces on the second floor, while two large millwork volumes conceal stairways up to second-floor private spaces.
