架构师提供的文本描述。这所房子的设计是对它的地点的直接反应，它是朝南的，在一个陡峭的悬崖上俯瞰着霍布森湾，这是新西兰奥克兰的一个城市边缘郊区。建筑师PaulLeuschke说：“这座城市的景色很好，我的客户要求能够站在厨房里看天空塔。”问题是没有建筑平台。“这是一个微妙的练习，充分利用一个不太有利的地点，面对不适合太阳的地方，在悬崖上，再加上在一定程度上与邻居分离。”建筑师说。

Text description provided by the architects. The design of this home was a direct response to its site, being south facing and on a steep bluff overlooking Hobson Bay, a city fringe suburb of Auckland, New Zealand. “It had great views back to the city, and my client asked to be able to stand in her kitchen and see the Sky Tower,” says architect, Paul Leuschke. The issue was there was no building platform. “It was a delicate exercise in making the most of a not-so-favorable site facing the wrong way [for the sun] and on a cliff, plus achieving a degree of separation from its neighbors.” says the architect.

在一条现有的车道上进行了大量的补救工作之后，新房子的形式包括三个层的两个盒子-一个用光滑的混凝土砌块建造的底层建筑，包括一个汽车法院和三辆汽车车库，还有一个上层空间，上面覆盖着深色的立式雪松，住着卧室。两个盒子之间是楼梯，上面有一座桥，在父母的套间和孩子们的卧室之间。

Following some substantial remedial work during up an existing driveway, the form of the new house comprises two boxes over three levels – a ground-floor volume constructed using smooth-plastered concrete-block, containing a motor court and three-car garaging and an upper volume, clad in dark-stained vertical cedar housing the bedrooms. Between the two boxes is the stair, with a bridge above between the parent's ensuite and the children’s bedrooms.

生活空间夹在中间，周围环绕着一条几乎连续的玻璃带，不仅可以从北方进入急需的阳光，而且还可以向南看城市。Leuschke说：“为了进一步扩大视野，我们将家庭空间悬挑在悬崖下。”“这让家人可以在海湾周围看到更远的地方，向海港和下面的码头望去。”作为一项奖励，建筑师给他的客户一个私人的，但完美的框架的天空塔从她的浴缸，弹出一个狭窄的垂直部分的上层。

Sandwiched in between, the living spaces are surrounded by an almost continuous ribbon of glazing that not only allows in much-needed sunlight in from the north but also affords great views out towards the city to the south. “To stretch the view further, we cantilevered the family room out over the cliff,” says Leuschke. “This allows the family to see further around the bay towards the harbor and tha marina below.” As a bonus, the architect gave his client a private yet perfectly framed vista of the Sky Tower from her bathtub by popping out a narrow vertical section of the upper story.
