架构师提供的文本描述。这座房子的场地提出了几个需要克服的挑战。首先，它位于两条繁忙的四车道道路的交界处.除此之外，东-西交叉岛列车的架空MRT(地下快速运输)高架桥就在其中一条公路的后面。汽车和经过的火车发出持续的噪音。正门所在的遗址的正面几乎是向西的。为了避开低角度西边太阳的热量和眩光，两个最明显的正面不能有太多的透视孔。

Text description provided by the architects. The site for this house posed several challenges to overcome. Firstly, it is located right at the junction of two busy 4-lane roads. And in addition to that, the overhead MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) viaduct for the East-West cross-island train is located just beyond one of these roads. There is constant noise coming from cars and the passing train. The front of the site, where the main gate is located, faces almost West. To keep out heat and glare from the low angle western sun, the 2 most visible facades cannot have too many see-through openings.

因此，为了保护室内空间不受交通噪音和西方太阳的影响，这座半独立的房子在房子和邻接的派对墙之间划出了很大的空隙，从而“翻转”了它的内部。自然光是指向这些空洞，其中一些延伸到整个4层的房子。楼上的所有卧室都是由一条普通的走廊从道路噪音中缓冲下来的，它们的窗户打开进入空气井的空隙，以便进行自然日光(间接)和通风。

Thus, in trying to shield the interior spaces from the traffic noise and the Western sun, the semi-detached house is “flipped” inwards by carving out large voids between the house and the party wall adjoining its neighbor. Natural light is directed down these voids, some of which stretch over the entire 4 stories of the house. All the bedrooms on the upper floors are buffered from the road noise by a common corridor and their windows open into the air-well voids for natural daylight (indirect) and ventilation.

这就解释了为什么前面和侧面的高度是用小窗来表达的(除了第一层，它打开了露台和花园)。使用天然焦褐色面砖作为外墙材料，进一步增强了“封闭”的外观，与打开空气井空隙的窗户形成直接对比，这些空隙通常是从地板到天花板的全高度。房子的内部完全受到保护，不受阳光直射和交通噪音的影响。

This explains why the front and side elevations are expressed with small fenestrations (except for the first story which opens out onto the patio and garden). The use of natural burnt-brown facing bricks as the façade material further enhances the “closed” look, in direct contrast to the windows opening onto the air-well voids which are often full-height from floor to ceiling. This inner side of the house is fully protected from direct sun and traffic noise.

还有许多空间排列设置在空隙中-从4层高的露天通风井到联锁的大容量入口“Foyer”。联锁的空隙通常允许在房子的不同部分之间进行大量的视觉连接，给人一种比真实空间更大的错觉。

There are also many spatial permutations set within the voids – ranging from the 4-story high open air-well that ventilates the Powder room to the interlocking high volume entrance “Foyer”. The interlocking voids often permit lots of visual connections between different parts of the house, giving an illusion of more spaciousness than there really is.
