架构师提供的文本描述。布鲁卡托住宅是洛杉矶历史保护区(HPOZ)内新建筑的一个罕见的例子。该项目位于洛杉矶最大的HPOZ高地公园-Garvanza区，该项目包括一套新房子，取代了客户的小而老的平房。由于原房屋被确定为历史上微不足道的房屋，其替代必须符合历史背景，并须经HPOZ董事会批准。在预算有限的情况下，重用结构的某些元素是至关重要的，例如现有的基础和现有框架的一部分。

Text description provided by the architects. The Brucato house is a rare example of new construction within a Historic Preservation Zone (HPOZ) in the city of Los Angeles. Located in the Highland Park-Garvanza district, which is the largest HPOZ in Los Angeles, the project consists of a new house that replaced the client’s small, aging bungalow. Since the original house was determined to be historically insignificant, its replacement would have to be compatible with the historic context and subject to the HPOZ board’s approval. And with a limited budget, it was critical to reuse certain elements of the structure, such as the existing foundation and parts of the existing framing.

该设计借鉴了邻近的历史建筑，其中包括一排历史悠久的飞机公寓楼。从街道上看，新房子的聚集性和物质性似乎与这些相邻的建筑相似。房子的第二层是后退的，新的船舷用类似的棕色油漆。对世纪中叶现代建筑的引用变得明显起来，特别是关于巴夫附近的建筑。

The design takes cues from the neighboring historic architecture, comprised of a row of historic Airplane Bungalows. From the street, the massing and materiality of the new house appears similar to these neighboring structures. The second story of the house is stepped-back, and the new shiplap siding is painted in a similar brown color. References to mid-century modern architecture become apparent, specifically of the nearby work of Buff & Hensman (best known for their Case Study Houses).

A post & beam system organizes the primary spaces. Its light tan color differentiates it from the colors of the exterior cladding and interior spaces. In its original context, post & beam architecture implied a continuity of space; beams seamlessly passed from interior to exterior in one homogeneous, continuous flow. Here, the beams transition two very different spaces. Emerging from the depths of a private domesticity, they reach out past the building envelope, framing spaces of light, air, and sky.
